Realistic scale for test environments Replicate real world scenarios. Test at production scale to catch and fix problems before release. If production environment is on Azure, can create exact clone to see how application will behave in the real world.

High fidelity dev-test environments Azure is built on battle-tested Hyper-V virtualization technology. If your existing on-premises virtual machines on Hyper-V run on Azure with no change. Once applications are built and tested in Azure, you can choose to easily deploy them on-premises.

Flexible and familiar dev-test tools Azure lets you take full advantage of existing applications, skills and expertise. You can test a wide range of enterprise applications on Azure Virtual Machines. Familiar tools like System Center or PowerShell scripting for easy provisioning, deployment, and management of dev-test environments.

Why Windows azure is economical No up front costs. Pay only for what you use. No terminations fees. Per minute billing. Estimate your expected monthly bill using our Pricing Calculator, and track your actual account usage and bill at any time using the Billing Portal.
