There are a set of open questions and decisions to prefer one or another cloud, just a few of that:
1. Region availability (to store sensitive data like payments or PHI data locally) - both providers have a set of not overlapping regions.
2. Specific services - both providers propose some unique services for test/voice recognition, IoT, machine learning, integration with different CDNs, etc.
3. Price - providers or resellers could propose various discounts based on your needs, grants, and other cost-reducing offers.
4. Technology stack and current infrastructure: AWS is more-less platform-agnostic and has a richer set of available services. Azure has more integration with Microsofts stack (Azure Active Directory, .NET support, and others).

From my understanding both platforms provide reliable storage services. AWS has services like EBS, Glacier and AWS S3 while Azure storage services blob storage, disk storage and archives. AWS S3 provides high availability and automatic replication across regions. Azure uses temporary storage and page blobs for VM volume.
