Who Benefits from Azure

Microsoft Azure for Entrepreneurs & Enterprises
"If your .Net Apps need to be Future-ready today, you should build them on Azure"
If you are an Entrepreneur or an Enterprise building a web based application with below nature, you'd stand to gain the maximum from Azure Cloud Adoption:
- A web-based B2C application that your end-users will use and pay for; and you expect it to scale up to a large user base.
- A web-based B2C application with unpredictable demand - where application usage may be very high during peak periods while very low at other times (like Gift purchase sites during Holiday season).
- An Enterprise application that is integrated with several other critical systems and needs continuous availability & high performance for its end users.
- A web-based B2C/B2B application that serves huge amounts of data (like a videos/documents sharing site) and needs high performance and availability.
- A web-based B2B application that has highly varying usage patterns across the year, and also needs high availability and performance.
- Any of your existing web-applications that need to serve purposes as above but cannot scale up due to capacity and design issues - are also good candidates for migrating to Cloud.
