Azure to AWS

You picked Azure because you're a .NET shop. That made sense. But reliability issues, pricing surprises, or organizational mandates have you looking at AWS.

These pages are for teams who've been on Azure and are evaluating or executing a move to AWS. Not generic "cloud vs cloud" marketing. Specific pain points, service mappings, and the things that trip people up during migration.

I've helped .NET teams make this move. The code ports easily; the infrastructure and mental model are what change.

What you'll find

  • Migration planning: service mapping, strategies, ordering, common mistakes
  • Service comparisons: where AWS wins, where Azure wins, and the honest trade-offs
  • Cost analysis: real pricing comparisons with numbers
  • Reliability context: why teams leave Azure and what AWS does differently

Who this is for

.NET teams evaluating whether to move, teams actively planning a migration, and architects who need to make the case internally. If you've already decided and need implementation help, the .NET on AWS resources cover the service-by-service details.
