What is Microsoft Azure

The Azure cloud platform comprises more than 200 products and cloud services designed to help solve today’s modern business challenges.

Like other cloud platforms, Azure relies on a technology known as virtualisation. Virtualisation uses software to replace hardware functionality and create virtual computer systems. This allows organisations to run more than one virtual system, and multiple operating systems and applications.

As a public cloud platform, Azure offers a wide collection of services, including infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS).

As a Microsoft Solutions Partner, our team has direct access to the latest Microsoft training, qualifications, and toolsets. This means our workforce is equipped to deliver and implement industry-leading technologies, while imparting specialist knowledge and advice to advance our clients’ growth.

Azure IaaS

Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is a type of cloud computing service that offers essential compute, storage, and networking resources on demand, on a pay-as-you-go basis.

By utilising Azure, you can quickly scale your cloud requirements up or down with demand, paying only for what you use. It helps you avoid the expense and complexity of buying and managing your own physical servers and other data centre infrastructure.

Azure SaaS

Azure’s software as a service (SaaS) capabilities allow users to connect to and use cloud-based apps over the internet. Common examples include email, calendaring, and office tools (such as Microsoft 365). SaaS enables your organisation to get up and running with an app quickly, at minimal upfront cost.

By using Azure’s SaaS capabilities, you can:
