UNDERSTANDING MICROSOFT AZURE FOR BUSINESS
Azure is Microsoft’s range of integrated cloud computing solutions.
Azure is an expansive cloud platform designed to support the building, deploying, and ongoing management of applications and services through Microsoft-managed data centres.
It provides a wide range of cloud services, spanning traditional storage and networking to big data and analytics solutions as well as AI and IOT computation.
Catering for a wide array of business needs, Azure users can readily access services like virtual machines for scalable computing, Azure SQL Database for managed database services, and Azure Active Directory for identity services.
Azure offers organisations several operational benefits. The flexibility of scaling is central among them, with organisations able to easily adjust resources based on changing demands. This in turn delivers cost-effectiveness, particularly for cloud IT infrastructure at scale.
Azure also provides high levels of security and compliance, meeting international and industry-specific compliance standards. It’s a trusted platform for enterprises concerned with data security and regulatory compliance. Microsoft’s global network of data centres also ensures reliable performance and faster content delivery.
However an organisation wishes to use Azure, Akita can support their goals through our consultancy and cloud infrastructure services.

AZURE CONSULTANCY
With the breadth of Microsoft Azure solutions and the complexity of their setup, it is easy for organisations to go wrong, and when they do, it can prove costly.
Akita’s infrastructure consultants can support organisations getting started with Azure services, helping them to choose and configure the right solutions for their requirements.
For those already established with Azure, we can advise how to optimise their cloud infrastructure for performance and budget, as well as recommend an ongoing development path with Azure services to meet organisational goals.

Microsoft Azure Services FAQs
How Is Microsoft Azure Priced?
Azure is priced based on the service you require and the functionality that you wish it to fulfil. This is then delivered as a measured service, with prices increasing/decreasing depending on the variables you select (eg. the amount of data you host, the number of virtual CPUs you require etc.). You can discover more about pricing on Microsoft's website.
MoreCan You Provide Microsoft Azure Licensing?
Yes, we can provide all types of Microsoft licensing at the same rate as buying directly from Microsoft.
Can You Manage An Existing Azure Setup?
Yes. We'll typically dedicate an onboarding session to understanding how you're currently using Azure and whether you're using the service has been optimised (which is often not the case). We'll then take over the management of your service.
Is Microsoft Azure GDPR Compliant?
It can be. We can configure Azure so that data is only held within the UK and ensure that it's not replicated (as part of the backup process) to other Microsoft data centres globally.
Can You Support Azure For Our Global Operations?
Yes, we can manage Azure tenants regardless of the global Microsoft data centre that they're hosted in.
Is Microsoft Azure Cost-Effective?
Microsoft Azure can support very complex cloud operations. Depending on what you are trying to achieve, it can be very cost-effective. However, it's easy to make costly mistakes with Azure. So if you're not confident with Azure, or don't have the time to effectively manage your environment, it's generally more cost-effective to work with a partner. Akita's experts can also advise if an alternative cloud solution may be more efficient for you.
