Cons	Apache Sometimes you can find undocumented bugs that can compromise the entire infrastructure. [If] you don't have an official support channel, you have try to find out the source of the problem by yourself. Volume size limitation. Other players allow you to create volumes up to 64TB while ACS allows only 2TB volumes João Victor Rodrigues Soares Manager of technical section of computing as a service Read full review	Microsoft No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Apache The University, my first large implementation, had a big issue with 149 small data centers spread on São Paulo State, this data centers costs to university were very high, the consolidation idea in two data centers were awesome, but were worried with the management, so we adopted ACS to management of all 576 physical hosts. Now a days the university is delivering IaaS for all staff, students, teachers and researchers, they are using these resources to delivery services to their clients and have a great results in research area Nidhin Chandradas Software Engineer Read full review	Microsoft No answers on this topic
