Azure is a most significant player in the cloud market today and will probably be for the foreseeable future. Microsoft brings a long list of expertise and familiarity to its customers, allowing them to provide a comfort blanket that risk-averse companies very much appreciate. This leads Microsoft in a strong position to snap up the next cloud adoption wave and offers a changing of the guard regarding cloud buyers.
Azure goes across industries, verticals, revenue, locations, and business sizes and types. In the 2020, Verizon: $79.9 million, MSI Computer: $78 million, Wikimedia Foundation: $42.6 million, LG Electronics: $76.7 million, NTT America: $48.7 million, Century Link: $61.9 million, LinkedIn Corp: $41.2 million, News Corp: $40.5 million, Adobe: $39.9 million, Intel: $38.5 million were some of its biggest spenders shelling $500K+ a month. They used Azure to solve a range of very diverse problems. Therefore, you can imagine what they could possibly do for you.
Looking through the list of companies, you’ll notice that many amongst these are companies with industry longevity. These massive enterprise players come in alongside community, government, and other companies. Exploring Azure and integrations is an obvious step with many organizations already equipped with O365. Azure can be very appealing for end-to-end DevOps for Azure toolchain when it comes to the developer side. In 2021, Azure started operations across 56 cloud regions in 21 countries. Their latest addition was an Israeli data center. Although all its services are unavailable in all regions, Azure is still available in 141 countries.
Microsoft lists over 200 different Azure-branded services under various categories, including containers, databases, Internet of Things, security, identity, networking, storage, etc. The Microsoft Partner network lists companies that are trained Azure experts in mainly one or more specialized fields, helping companies undergo digital transformation with all the support required to grow. All Microsoft partners are scattered worldwide to help you out.
Azure divides its services into categories like Containers, Compute, Database, Management & Governance, Networking & Content Delivery and more. We can segment accounts based on the categories they are investing in. As long as they invest in at least 2-3 types, the intent is strong and implies heavy Azure usage. Technology in the ‘Management & Governance’ category (CloudFormation, Azure Auto Scaling) means heavy use of Azure. This is a good intent. Indirect scaling indicators like Azure Synapse + Azure Event hubs is also good intent. Organizations need efficient sales and marketing flywheel, and best marketing and sales intelligence to work efficiently.
There are many reasons people want to know Azure customers.
1. Microsoft helps in the GTM approach with Azure customers.
2. Azure customers do tend to use Microsoft technologies and do need talent to develop technologies.
3. Azure spend increases drastically as credits dry. Hence, huge opportunities for vendors to sell their products.
