With AWS you have to buy a new SQL Server license, with Azure you can carry it with you.

Replaced all the legacy services with Azure alternatives. For example, IIS Web Servers now run in containers. F5 has been replaced with CloudFlare/Front Door. File servers replaced with NetApp. SQL instance replaced with SQL MI. Jumpboxes replaced with Azure Bastion.

40,000+ employees. All the vendors are used. Multiple on premise data centers as well, looking to migrate.

Super helpful - thank you! IIS / containerized .NET apps that may be optimized in Azure is compelling.
