Microsoft Azure

When you already live in the Microsoft stack.

What it is

Microsoft Azure is the second-largest cloud, deeply integrated with Microsoft 365, Entra ID (the former Azure AD), and the wider Microsoft enterprise ecosystem. For organisations already invested there, Azure often wins by reducing friction rather than by being technically superior.

Why we reach for it
  • Deep integration with Microsoft 365, Entra ID, and the enterprise identity stack your IT team already runs.
  • UAE North and UAE Central regions, with strong government and regulated-workload coverage.
  • Strong Kubernetes (AKS) offering that plays well with GitHub and Azure DevOps pipelines.
  • OpenAI-on-Azure is compelling for enterprise AI work where data residency matters.
When we don’t
  • -When the organisation has no prior Microsoft investment - AWS or GCP are usually simpler to adopt.
  • -When the team wants to move fast on new primitives - Azure's pace of product release feels slower than AWS.
  • -For hobby or side projects - the pricing and tooling optimise for enterprise, not individual developers.
