Why Azure?
Even though there are many cloud computing platforms available, three or four of them are leading the cloud computing industry. Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud are the giants in the world of cloud computing, AWS being the largest but Azure experiencing the maximum growth. Microsoft Azure is fast becoming the number one choice for public cloud services. Increase in the growth of the cloud and investments poured into the development of Azure means that there will be a huge demand for Azure professionals who can use its tools and services to build, deploy, manage and store applications in the cloud.
Getting started with Cloud Computing
Cloud computing refers to the technology that provides access to varied computing resources over the internet that include serverless computing, virtual machines, storage, security, machine learning, and more. All you need to do is use your computer or mobile device to connect to your cloud service provider through the internet. Cloud computing applications and platforms are rapidly growing across all industries, serving as the IT platform that drives emerging digital businesses. Cloud combines platforms and applications that are revolutionizing the ways in which businesses function, and have made processes easier. A majority of businesses today have at least some portion of their computing infrastructure in the cloud.
The cloud service providers have massive data centers that contain thousands of servers, storage systems and components that are crucial for the organizations. These data centers are in secure locations and store a large amount of data. The users connect to these data centers to retrieve data or use it when required. When you use cloud services, you actually pay only for the services you use, and there are no charges upfront. In essence, Cloud computing is a term referred to storing and accessing of data over the internet. It doesn’t store any data on the hard drive of your personal or office computer. In cloud computing, you access data from a remote server.
