What is the difference between AWS and other cloud computing platforms such as Microsoft Azure?
AWS and Microsoft Azure are two leading cloud computing platforms, differing primarily in market focus, service offerings, and integration capabilities. As the first and largest provider, AWS offers the widest range of services across computing, storage, machine learning, IoT, and more, making it highly versatile and scalable. In contrast, Microsoft Azure, as suggested in the name, excels in its seamless integration with Microsoft products like Office 365, making it a top choice for organisations already invested in the Microsoft ecosystem.
