Microsoft has taken care of any data compliance issues, so whatever your industry or business sector you can benefit from Azure. GDPR is the most significant change to EU privacy law in two decades. The GDPR requires that organisations respect and protect personal data – no matter where it is sent, processed or stored.

Gartner has named Microsoft Azure as a leader in its Magic Quadrant for Cloud Infrastructure as a Service based on the completeness of their vision and ability to execute. In fact, according to Gartner, Microsoft is the only cloud computing vendor that is a Magic Quadrant Leader in all of the major cloud services categories, including Infrastructure as A Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS).
