Reasons why SQL Server 2008 runs best on Azure...


Better Performance

Azure has a larger storage bandwidth than AWS. This means that the speed in which data can 'read / write' is higher - giving greater performance.


Best Practice and Expertise

Microsoft has the largest knowledge base and technical resources for SQL Server, with SQL Server code written directly into Azure.


Superior SQL Server Security

When a new SQL Server service pack is released or critical fixes updated, they are implemented in Azure on the same day. No other Cloud provider can do this.


One Vendor - Microsoft on Microsoft

Running Microsoft databases on Microsoft infrastructure means you have one support team that can work across both SQL Server and Azure technologies, providing superior support and consistency should you run into difficulties.
