- skc 7y agoIt's never made clear exactly which piece of AWS that Azure is growing faster than. I think Office 365 is counted as part of Azure and it's extremely popular, but that wouldn't make it an apples to apples comparison wrt AWS.
- arethuza 7y agoThe numbers are never very clear - Office 365 is a bundle of licenses for desktop services and a set of online services (Exchange Online, SharePoint Online etc.) that all have dependencies on Azure Active Directory but aren't normally regarded as 'part' of Azure.
