As businesses increasingly move towards cloud solutions, it is critical to take advantage of the advanced tools that providers such as Microsoft Azure can supply.  In particular, the Azure Hybrid Benefit allows companies to maximize their existing investments by bringing their current Windows Server and SQL Server licenses to Azure, potentially saving up to 85% over standard pay-as-you-go rates.  Let’s dig into this type of Azure migration a bit deeper.

Azure Migration with Azure Hybrid Benefit

The infographic below highlights the significant benefits of migrating to Microsoft Azure, particularly through the Azure Hybrid Benefit, which allows businesses to save up to 80% when combined with Reserved Instances.  Azure stands out as a cost-effective and high-performance option for companies transitioning from on-premises to cloud environments.  With Azure, businesses can achieve up to 57% faster SQL Server performance compared to AWS, while also benefiting from robust, AI-driven security features provided by Microsoft Defender for Cloud, which monitors 65 trillion threat signals daily with the support of 8,500 security experts.

Additionally, Azure offers extensive opportunities for modernization and innovation.  Services like Azure Automanage, Azure Kubernetes Service, and Azure Virtual Desktop enable efficient workload modernization, while Azure Arc provides comprehensive hybrid infrastructure management. Azure’s resilience and scalability ensure faster backups and reduced recovery times, making it ideal for mission-critical applications. The infographic also emphasizes the importance of expert support in cloud migration, encouraging businesses to collaborate with experienced consultants to develop and implement a successful Azure adoption strategy.
