REPORT EVALUATING AWS AND AZURE PROVIDERS 1
Executive summary
The main purpose of this report is to compare the offerings from two cloud providers which are
AWS and Azure and provide a recommendation for the best provider for BallotOnline. This will
be done by carrying out some research such as networking and auxiliary services in the cloud,
trends in the cloud, best practices, and migration issues, and architectures of cloud deployment. A
comparison of the two service providers will be done and then provide the best company for
BallotOnline. The intended audience is the senior management of BallotOnline who will
spearhead the cloud migration to the recommended service provider

Comparison of architecture deployment feasibility
AWS and Azure architecture
For both Azure and AWS environments, the basic architecture for cloud servers is
already present such as cloud servers, storage, and security. However, there are some features
present in AWS such as load balancing and elastic load balancing which improve the efficiency
of the server as well as application. AWS has the Amazon S3 (Simple storage service) which
provides a simple web service interface that can be used to store and retrieve any amount of data
any time anywhere on the web. A unique feature with AWS is the auto-scaling feature which can
dynamically scale the web application fleet on-demand to handle changes in traffic
For Azure architecture, it runs on a massive collection of servers and networking
hardware which in turn hosts a complex collection of applications that control the operations and
configurations of the software and the virtualized hardware on these servers. This powerful
architecture makes it easy for users since they do not have to spend time maintaining and
upgrading computer hardware since Azure takes care of this behind the scenes (Madhuri &
Sowjanya, 2016).
Considering the two cloud providers, it seems that they are both powerful and have the
best features for BallotOnline but looking at the features closer, Azure seems better in terms of
the features. For example, they store three backups of the customer’s data in three different
locations in the data center and three other remote backups in a remote data center which is not
the case with AWS. With Azure, it is also possible to integrate with Active directory which can
supplement the existing access and identity capabilities. It also gives the DNS improved security,
worldwide reach, and centralized management which could be beneficial to BallotOnline.Below
is the proposed architecture for BallotOnline
