Product Information

Azure is an open source and flexible cloud platform which helps in development, service hosting, service management, and data storage. The Azure cloud computing tool hosts web applications over the internet with the help of Microsoft data centers.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is widely used to secure cloud services platform, offering computing power, content delivery, database storage, and other functionality to help businesses scale and grow.
AWS charges you on an hourly basis but Azure has a pricing model of per minute charge. In terms of short-term subscriptions, Azure has more flexibility but it is more expensive. Azure has much better hybrid cloud support in comparison with AWS. AWS provides direct connections whereas Azure express provides routing.
Azure machines are grouped into cloud service and respond to the same domain name with various ports whereas the AWS machine can be accessed separately. Azure has a virtual network cloud whereas AWS has Virtual Private Cloud. Azure has 140 availability zone whereas AWS has 61 availability zones.
Both Azure and AWS support hybrid clouds but Azure supports hybrid cloud better.
Azure offers express routes while AWS offers direct connection.
Azure provides security by offering permissions on the whole account whereas AWS security is provided using defined roles with permission control feature.
Azure machines are grouped into cloud service and respond to the same domain name with various ports whereas the AWS machine can be accessed separately.
Azure has a virtual network cloud whereas AWS has Virtual Private Cloud.
