I’m a big fan of both Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services. The two clouds are redefining the way web, apps and everything on the internet is made accessible from enterprise to the average user. Both for my own benefit and for yours, here’s a detailed side by side comparison of services as well as features available in each cloud:
For me this comparison is an exercise to allow me to reference quickly what the major services and features are on each cloud platform. I hope you can use it for reference if you’re needing to quickly know the equivalent service from one platform or the other.
Thank you,

Nice post! Azure actually has Lambda equivalent. It’s called Azure Webjobs and it’s way more superior according to this: http://www.tobepioneers.com/aws-vs-azure-lambda-vs-webjobs/
Awesome, thanks for the protip man. Updated accordingly 🙂
Azure functions is a technology built on webjobs that directly competes with Lambda. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/functions/
Hello Lucian, thanks for the comparison, it’s very useful!
A few remarks though:
. AWS ELB doesn’t relate to Traffic Manager but to (external or internal) Load-balancer
. Route53 relates to Traffic Manager
. As of 1st of April’16, AWS Lambda equivalent is WebJob successor a.k.a Azure Functions (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/functions/).
You haven’t mentioned Azure SQL. Which is a Microsoft distributed Relational database.
Elastic Beanstalk’s comparable feature in Azure in WebApps.
