AWS VS AZURE

 

                    Microsoft Azure vs Amazon AWS


👉 AWS has four categories of services 
  1. Compute
  2. Content delivery and storage
  3. Database
  4. Networking
👉 Azure also has four services offering
  1. Compute
  2. Performance
  3. Data management and databases
  4. Networking

1.Features and Services

In terms of basic capabilities, AWS and Azure are pretty similar. They share all of the common elements of public cloud services: self-service, security, instant provisioning, auto-scaling, compliance, and identity management.

so in this scenario both are similar.


2.Computing Power

AWS EC2 users can configure their own virtual machines (VMs), choose pre-configured machine images , or customize MIs. Users have the freedom to choose the size, power, memory capacity, and number of VMs they wish to use. 

Azure users, on the other hand, chose a virtual hard disk (VHD) to create a VM. This can be pre-configured by Microsoft, the user, or a separate third party. It relies on virtual scale sets for scalability purposes. 

The key difference is that EC2 can be tailored to a range of options, while Azure VMs pair with other tools to help deploy applications on the cloud. 

3.Storage

AWS's storage relies on machine instances, which are virtual machines hosted on AWS infrastructure. Storage is tied to individual instances--temporary storage is allocated once per instance and destroyed when an instance is terminated. 

If you want object storage, you can get it through S3, and if you want data archiving, you can get it through Glacier. 

Azure, on the other hand, offers temporary storage through D drive and block storage through Page Blobs for VMs, with Block Blobs and Files doubling as object storage. Like AWS, it supports relational databases, Big Data, and NoSQL.

Azure offers two classes of storage: Hot and Cool. Cool storage is less expensive, but you'll incur additional read and write costs.

Both have unlimited allowed objects, but 
AWS has an object size limit of 5 TB,
while Azure has a size limit of 4.75 TB. 

4.Databases

both AWS and Azure have robust database offerings. 

Amazon's relational database service (RDS) supports six popular database engines: 

  1. Amazon Aurora
  2. MariaDB
  3. Microsoft SQL
  4. MySQL
  5. Oracle
  6. PostgreSQL

Azure's SQL database, on the other hand, is based on Microsoft SQL. 

Both systems work perfectly with NoSQL and relational databases. They're highly available, durable, and offer easy, automatic replication.
