Azure vs AWS
Service Comparison

Last updated: April 18, 2026

About This Project

Cloud Compare is a personal, open-source tool built and maintained by devtech8. It provides an interactive comparison of equivalent services across Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services to help architects, engineers, and decision-makers quickly understand the cloud landscape.

This project has no commercial relationship with any cloud provider. It is not sponsored, funded, endorsed, or officially recognized by Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, or any other provider referenced here. Provider names, logos, and trademarks belong to their respective owners and appear here strictly for reference.

Accuracy of Information

All service names, descriptions, feature comparisons, pricing details, and documentation links are gathered from publicly available sources such as provider documentation, pricing pages, and official announcements. We do our best to keep things current, but this information may be incomplete, outdated, or incorrect at any time.

• Service names and mappings are approximate. Not every Azure service has an exact one-to-one equivalent in AWS, and vice versa. The pairings shown here represent the closest functional match based on common use cases.
• Features and capabilities change. Providers regularly add, modify, or discontinue features. What you see here may not reflect the latest changes.
• Pricing is illustrative, not definitive. Costs shown are based on publicly listed rates at the time of writing and may not account for regional variations, volume discounts, enterprise agreements, or promotional offers.
• Not every service may be listed. New services are announced regularly and may not yet appear here.

Feature Comparison Data

Detailed feature matrices are provided for informational purposes and reflect a point-in-time snapshot of publicly available documentation. Comparisons highlighting one provider over another for a specific feature are based on documented capabilities and do not constitute a recommendation or endorsement of either provider.
