Question

Shruthi J · Accepted Answer

Both provide cloud based VM but AWS offers more instance types for specific needs. It has 36 regions and 114 Availability Zones globally and also provide more disaster recovery options. AWS holds around 30 - 33% of the market share, so it's been in the market longer compared to Microsoft. AWS EC2 stands out for scalability, customization and cost efficiency. Azure VM's are still powerful especially for organization using Microsoft technologies.
