Is it that much cheaper for you to build a new region on Azure versus getting setup on AWS?
If you rely on Kubernetes for orchestration and have minimal cloud API dependency, it may be worth that evaluating this option.
Also, do you have a TAM associated with your account? Are you just going through regular support channels? Can they deliver different instance types (not sure what the Azure parallel is), can they deliver short term capacity, etc?
I would try to push Microsoft more here. It's not like they've stopped on-boarding new customers into that region right? What happens if you create a new account in that region?
- janober 4y agoWe already tried to push Microsoft, sadly have they been not very helpful. Still trying to get in contact with somebody that can actually make a difference. After all, are we also not asking for a hundred machines. Can really not imagine that they can not somehow make the resources we require available.
- dekhn 4y agoI'll ask again what the person above asked: do you have a TAM. If you don't you're at a big disadvantage.

- jiggawatts 4y agoSome tricks you can try is to switch to a different SKU. Most Azure databases have different generations of underlying compute. They may be out of just on model. Try a different one. Similarly, just keep trying to change the size. Often it’ll go through when someone else decommissions something.
