key advantages of Azure over AWS:
Cost-Effectiveness
- Hybrid Cloud Advantage : Azure excels in integrating with on-premises Microsoft environments, potentially reducing licensing costs for existing Windows Server and SQL Server users.
- Free Tier : Azure offers a generous free tier, allowing you to explore and experiment with services before committing to paid plans.
- Pay-per-Minute Billing : Azure bills per minute, potentially saving you money compared to AWS's per-hour billing for some services.
Developer Experience
- NET and Windows Integration : Azure provides seamless integration with .NET and Windows technologies, simplifying development for those already familiar with these platforms.
- Visual Studio Tools : Azure integrates seamlessly with Visual Studio, offering robust tools and extensions for development and deployment.
- Global Reach : Azure boasts a slightly larger global network of data centers than AWS, potentially offering lower latency and better performance for geographically dispersed users./li>
Some potential advantages of Azure over GCP:
Global Giant
More data centers worldwide, especially in Europe and the Middle East, for lower latency and local data storage.
Security Superstar
Top-notch security and compliance, meeting even the strictest industry regulations.
Windows Whiz
Native support and optimized performance for Windows apps and services, no extra setup needed.
Cost Crusader
Flexible pricing, competitive rates for hybrid and Windows workloads, plus sweet Microsoft discounts.
Some key advantages Azure holds over OCI:
- Global Reach and Availability:
- Azure boasts a larger network of data centres worldwide, offering unparalleled geographic reach and lower latency for global deployments.
- OCI has a growing network, but it doesn’t yet match Azure’s extensive global coverage.
- Breadth and Maturity of Services:
- Azure enjoys a longer presence in the cloud market, resulting in a broader range of mature and established services across various areas, including:
- Artificial intelligence and machine learning
- Analytics and big data
- Internet of Things (IoT)
- DevOps and application development
- Security and compliance
- OCI, while catching up, may lack the depth and maturity in some of these areas compared to Azure.
- Hybrid Cloud Integration:
- Azure excels in hybrid cloud integration, offering seamless connections to on-premises infrastructure through Azure Arc and other hybrid solutions.
- OCI provides hybrid options, but its integration might not be as smooth or mature as Azure’s.
- Developer and Open Source Tools:
- Azure attracts developers with its strong focus on open source technologies and extensive support for popular developer tools like Visual Studio Code and GitHub.
- OCI is improving its open source offerings, but Azure currently holds a more prominent position in this regard.
- Pricing and Cost Optimization:
- While both platforms offer flexible pricing models, Azure sometimes presents more cost-effective options for specific use cases like large-scale compute and data storage.
- OCI can be more competitive in pricing for certain scenarios, particularly for Oracle-specific workloads.

Cost optimization of existing Azure environment
Galaxy helps its customer to optimize their cost of their existing Azure cloud subscription following our best practices . Some of the factors which galaxy considers for the optimization of cost for their existing and new customers are:-
- Resource Right-Sizing: This ensures that resources are neither over-provisioned, leading to unnecessary costs, nor under-provisioned, risking performance issues.
- Reserved Instances: Reserved Instances allow customers to commit to a one or three-year term for virtual machines in exchange for a significant discount compared to pay-as-you-go pricing.
- Azure Hybrid Benefit: This benefit allows organizations to maximize the value of their existing on-premises licenses when migrating to Azure, resulting in substantial cost reductions.
- Spot Instances: For workloads with flexible timing and capacity, use Azure Spot Instances to access unused capacity at lower costs.
- Storage Optimization: We enable lifecycle management to automatically transition data to lower-cost storage tiers.
- Monitoring and Alerts: We Set up cost alerts to receive notifications when spending exceeds predefined thresholds.
Galaxy implement these best practices and regular review your Azure environment . Galaxy effectively optimize cost while maintaining the performance and reliability of application . Galaxy follow the regular practice of informing their customer about Azure pricing updates and feature update regarding cost management.
