Microsoft Azure

Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing service provided by Microsoft.
We have data centers in over 60 locations around the world, including two in Japan (in eastern and western Japan), and are used by many customers both in Japan and overseas.
The platforms provided by Microsoft Azure generally fall into the categories of IaaS and PaaS, and as of 2021, more than 100 services are available.

Features

  • cost savings

    There are no initial costs for system implementation, and the environment required for system development and operation can be quickly established.In addition, a pay-as-you-go system is adopted, so there are no extra costs for implementation or operation, and a trial version is also available that can be used free of charge for the first month.
    The official Microsoft Azure website provides a tool that allows you to calculate estimates and usage fees, and you can also calculate the approximate costs of operation in advance.

  • Strong collaboration

    It can be smoothly integrated with various Microsoft applications such as Office 365 and SharePoint.
    It can also be integrated with on-premise systems and used in hybrid cloud environments.

  • Excellent security

    Microsoft Azure offers compliance and network security measures. Threats can come not only from outside the data center but also from inside (such as malicious operations), so Azure data centers have various countermeasures in place, such as restricting access, multi-layered security gates, and reducing manual work through automation.
    In an on-premises environment, it is difficult to constantly take measures, but one of the benefits of Azure is that it allows you to easily use such an environment.

  • Japanese law applies

    The governing law is Japanese law, and the Tokyo District Court is the competent court, so companies based in Japan can use this service with peace of mind.
    In addition, Azure can generally not only be purchased directly from Microsoft, but also from Microsoft partners called Cloud Solution Providers (CSPs) such as our company, and payment can be made in Japanese yen.
