The pace of innovation in recent years has been phenomenal and have changed the 
way we run our IT. Going away are servers on-premises and traditional hosting from 
smaller datacenters.
A few benefits with cloud hosting vs traditional hosting are listed in the following 
slides. In transparency, some of these benefits are also applicable to other large 
cloud vendors and not only to Microsoft and Azure so in a sense it’s about cloud vs 
traditional hosting. Microsoft Azure or Amazon AWS is not important as both are 
great platforms.
•Managing workloads in Azure gives you higher redundancy in data 
communication and local networks than you can achieve yourself, many 
alternative routes, and a high internal SLA at Microsoft ensures this
•It’s easy to mirror to other Azure datacenters in a fail-over scenario
•Easy to instantly increase capacity in Azure, can be done without having to wait 
for new hardware being delivered and installed
•Easy to deploy VMs in Azure geographically closer to the customer, ability to get 
worldwide reach for everyone
•Azure is better protected against cybercrime thanks to Microsoft’s continuous 
efforts in this field and the Azure security benefits is a focus area at Microsoft
•There are significant cost benefits of cloud 
computing and Azure gives you a lower cost 
over time, this is a game changer but 
industry scale hosting in the cloud is now 
less expensive than traditional hosting
•Azure do not tie up capital (CapEx) as 
everything is operational (OpEx)
