I like the security provided by Microsoft Cloud Platform that gives us comfort that our Clouds data and applications are safe and secure with excellent backups and recovery capabilities and our entire organization depend on this platform for effective data migration. The system integrations with this platform are highly intuitive with the ease to customize its API and excellent performance monitoring capability to all our Clouds applications.

I feel AWS offers a robust and versatile platform for cloud infrastructure and services. It's scalability, reliability array of tools make it a top choice for businesses of all sizes. AWS has better open source communities such as Linux, Jenkins and GitHub in comparison to Azure service cloud
