Microsoft Azure has secured a place and growing steadily as a competitor for the top cloud providers. Microsoft Azure provides a wide range of services from Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS) to Cloud Managing services. Top analysts report that Microsoft Azure is a growing fish in a growing pond of Cloud computing. The cloud market is very competitive and ever growing. Microsoft Azure competes with the likes of Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud. Along with IaaS and PaaS, Microsoft Azure also offers security controls, networking, analytics and more. A major advantage with Microsoft Azure is that it supports third party software as well. Microsoft is investing in India in projects like Aadhaar, Skype Lite and Project Sangam. Microsoft aims to bring Aadhaar integration into Skype Lite by June 2017. The second platform, Project Sangam, aims to connect the skills learning programme directly with relevant jobs by leveraging LinkedIns job-search platform. Project Sangam will allow users to register with their Aadhaar identity to ensure lifelong access to the platform. To maintain and support Microsoft Azure companies do need developers, analysts, software engineers, database administrators, hence the job opportunities are immense. A good hand on Microsoft Azure will help professionals to get work on projects of big players of India like Reliance, TATA's and Mahindra's.
