Why move Windows Server to Azure
Move workloads
to the cloud at
your own pace,
using existing
skills, familiar
tools, and
established
procedures
Here are some of the reasons Microsoft
customers move workloads to Azure:
Azure-only offers
Pay less than on other clouds, because
you can bring your Windows Server and
SQL Server licenses to Azure using Azure
Hybrid Benefit.
The most trusted cloud
Take advantage of multi-layered security
across physical datacenters, infrastructure,
and operations and Microsoft's $1 billion
annual investment in security. Benefit
from 8,500 cybersecurity experts and
active monitoring that helps protect your
business assets and data.
Cloud innovation
Take advantage of features only in
Azure that can help you accelerate the
modernization of your infrastructure.
Consistent hybrid services
Azure is also the only consistent hybrid
cloud. Connect your on-premises infra-
structure, data, and apps to the cloud
with Azure Arc—for maximum portability
and value from existing investments. You
also benefit from hybrid consistency in
application development, management
and security, identity management, and
across the data platform. This means
your organization is free to decide what
computing resources stay in-house and
what moves to the cloud.
