Extend your existing ITSome cloud providers make you choose between your datacenter and the cloud. Not Azure, which easily integrates with your existing IT environment through the largest network of secure private connections, hybrid database, and storage solutions, and data residency and encryption features - so your assets stay right where you need them. And with Azure Stack, you can bring the Azure model of application development and deployment to your datacenter. Azure hybrid cloud solutions give you the best of both worlds: more IT options, less complexity, and cost. It's why it's one of the best cloud computing services available. |

Microsoft was also the first major cloud provider to adopt the new international cloud privacy standard, ISO 27018. We also launched Azure Government, a stand-alone version of Azure designed to meet the rigorous compliance requirements of U.S. public agencies. |

Features
Azure Automated includes:
Services
Time-saving
Now you can automate all of those frequent, time-consuming, and error-prone cloud management tasks. Azure Automation helps you spend more of your time focused on work that adds business value. By reducing errors and boosting efficiency, it can also help lower your operational costs.
Powershell workflows
In Automation, Windows PowerShell scripts and workflows—known as runbooks—help you work smarter by handling the creation, deployment, monitoring, and maintenance of Azure resources and third-party applications. The Automation Runbook Gallery puts samples, utilities, and scenario runbooks right at your fingertips so that you can get up and running quickly with your automation tasks. The Runbook Gallery lets you browse and import runbooks to your Automation account without ever having to leave the Azure portal.
Seamless integration
Automation runbooks work with Web Apps in Azure App Service, Azure Virtual Machines, Azure Storage, Azure SQL Database, and other popular Azure services. You can also use them with any service that offers public Internet APIs. Easy-to-read dashboard charts and log records make runbooks easier to monitor.
More reliability and speed
By efficiently handling processes that span tools, systems, and department silos, Automation lets you deliver services faster and more consistently. It’s highly reliable and you can create checkpoints to resume your workflow after unexpected errors, crashes, and network issues.
Easy configuration
Author and manage PowerShell Desired State Configurations (DSC), import DSC resources, and generate DSC node configurations, all in the cloud. With Azure Automation DSC, you can easily and reliably monitor and automatically update machine configuration across physical and virtual machines, Windows or Linux, in the cloud or on-premises.
Benefits
Work with familiar, integrated Microsoft tools
Organizations using Microsoft tools like SharePoint, Outlook, and Office 365 will be able to seamlessly integrate with Microsoft Azure. Azure is also able to use the same virtual machines as on-premise, whether that be Linux or Windows.
Choose between IaaS and PaaS
With Microsoft Azure being an industry leader in both IaaS and PaaS, companies that require unique features and customizations reflecting their industry position will be able to get the most out of Azure's cloud services.
Take advantage of BI and analytics support
Azure is integrated with SQL and NoSQL data services, and tools that can deeply analyze data, uncovering hidden insights in your organization's workflow. Microsoft Azure's Hadoop-based cloud service, HDInsight, can also build Hadoop clusters to analyze Big Data.
