This article helps you understand how Microsoft Azure services compare to Amazon Web Services
(AWS). Whether you are planning a multicloud solution with Azure and AWS, or migrating to Azure,
you can compare the IT capabilities of Azure and AWS services in all categories.

This article compares services that are roughly comparable. Not every AWS service or Azure service
is listed, and not every matched service has exact feature-for-feature parity.

Azure and AWS for multicloud solutions

As the leading public cloud platforms, Azure and AWS each offer a broad and deep set of
capabilities with global coverage. Yet many organizations choose to use both platforms together
for greater choice and flexibility, as well as to spread their risk and dependencies with a multicloud
approach. Consulting companies and software vendors might also build on and use both Azure and
AWS, as these platforms represent most of the cloud market demand.

For an overview of Azure for AWS users, see Introduction to Azure for AWS professionals.
