Join our hands to get onto the world’s most trusted cloud infrastructure – Azure IaaS - to tap into unmatched expertise, scalability, security & capabilities the platform offers.
Azure Infrastructure or Azure IaaS – Infrastructure as a Service – refers to a comprehensive set of cloud resources and solutions, which enable businesses to take advantage of the enterprise-grade cloud computing capabilities. With IaaS, the cloud vendor or Azure manages compute, storage and network infrastructure, while everything else is managed by the client. Azure offers a robust set of services and failover model for supporting IaaS. When a business licenses for IaaS, it gets an equivalent of its own physical datacenter in the cloud. A user is given brilliant flexibility and resilience with strong data sovereignty and an ability to choose his/her own data region, based on his/her customers and data proximity and other needs.
For IaaS, one doesn’t require on-premises servers or datacenters. With Azure Infrastructure, organizations get secure and agile solutions, without the hassles and costs of maintaining their IT infrastructure in-house. IaaS also allows users to leverage the benefits of cloud computing, while retaining control over the operating systems, applications, and configurations of their virtual machines.
