Thanks to the cloud revolution, the software engineering industry went from struggling to maintain IT infrastructure on-premise to selling software for subscription within a decade. The cloud saves organizations a lot of money while giving them the agility and elasticity they need. AWS and Azure are the leading cloud providers that lead the market in providing on-demand cloud computing services and platforms to customers. Choosing between these two providers should depend on IT infrastructure, the size of the business, and long-term goals. But more importantly, organizations must decide whether the services of these two providers are compatible with them. Let us look at ten mandatory services of AWS and Azure and compare them with each other so that you can make a calculated decision as to which cloud provider to choose from the two.
VNET vs. VPC
The first step in any cloud journey is choosing a private network provided by cloud providers. Microsoft’s Virtual Network (VNET) and Amazon’s Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) are the most commonly used private networks in the world. These two services form the foundation for provisioning resources and services in the cloud. These private networks have a lot of similarities and a few variations. Some of the similarities between them are the segregation of networks into subnets, offering different gateways for different connectivity purposes, and allowing hybrid connections. They both use non-globally routable CIDR from the private IPv4 address ranges. On the other hand, VNET and VPC vary in only two aspects: routing table and security.
