Managed Private Cloud
 

Overview:

Microsoft Azure offers a powerful infrastructure and extensive set of tools for developing customized environments. However Microsoft doesn’t manage, monitor or secure cloud environments on Azure. As a result, customers still must invest in additional services to ensure their environments are secure, compliant and highly available.

If outsourcing your infrastructure to Azure requires you to invest in additional security, service and support, are you getting what you really need?
