Microsoft Azure is a very robust, huge platform. You can do many different things on the platform: servers, SQL database, VPN, etc. So you can run a full-blown working environment on the cloud.
Depending on the services and how you design your services in Azure, you can have multiple redundancies in a backup if something happens to your system. For example, you can have numerous backups at different locations or redundant platforms that will serve other people.
It’s a very robust solution for developers who need access from around the world or the US. It is very malleable and quickly changed to fit your needs at the moment.
Moving your company to the cloud may or may not have a lower cost. For example, Microsoft has a unique calculator on their website that will tell you exactly how much the services you select will cost, including licensing, processing, storage, etc.
The most significant benefit is that it’s accessible from anywhere globally. It’s always up and running. It’s very resilient, very stable, and very protected. It can save you the cost of infrastructure if done right.
