Discover Microsoft Azure and the transformative power of cloud computing to eliminate traditional business constraints.

When your systems live in the cloud, you always have access to the latest functionality in intelligent threat detection and prevention. This means no more trying to bolster the security of physical systems optimized for decades-old threats.

Security and privacy are built into Microsoft Azure from the ground up, giving you complete visibility into and control over security threats. Azure uses multi-layered, built-in security controls and unique threat intelligence capabilities to identify and protect against increasingly advanced attacks. And, Azure’s compliance coverage is more comprehensive than any other cloud provider, with more than 90 international and industry-specific compliance offerings.

Reduce overhead costs associated with data storage, server maintenance, and networking—costs that are especially hard on smaller businesses.

With Azure, you pay as you go, so you only pay for what you use with no hefty upfront expenses. This gives organizations of any size the computing power of much larger organizations without the need to invest in expensive server hardware or a large IT staff to manage it. And if your business changes tomorrow, it’s easy to change the scale and scope of your Azure solution.

If your services and systems aren’t available, your business can’t run. This can mean a serious loss in revenue each time your business experiences unplanned downtime.

Microsoft Azure offers more than 99.99% guaranteed uptime, so you can be confident your systems will always be available. Take your availability one step further with high availability, data backup, and disaster recovery solutions to meet and significantly improve even the most rigorous business reliability and recovery standards.

Keeping your business competitive means adapting to a constantly changing business landscape. To stay ahead of the curve and compete with businesses wielding much larger IT budgets and teams, you need the ability to skip lengthy ordering, building, and deploying processes.

Azure allows you to make changes to your existing solutions and add new capabilities in hours instead of weeks, keeping your business agile enough to respond to even the most abrupt changes in market pressures. Azure’s low development costs also reduce the risk of innovation.

Modern technology solutions not only require more and more computing power as they advance, but are at the same time generating vast amounts of data that needs to be processed and analyzed. Before Azure, capabilities like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and automation were out of reach for smaller businesses without massive war chests.

These technologies can make a real difference in promoting efficiency and redesigning business processes, and Azure makes it possible for any business to take advantage of powerful solutions at any budget level.
