Microsoft brings out its Azure Availability Zones for UAE businesses

American multinational technology corporation Microsoft has launched its Azure Availability Zones in order to heighten the competitiveness of organizations in the UAE.

The company said that “the Azure Availability Zones will be delivered through its UAE data centers in Dubai.”

The launch intends to enhance the competitiveness of UAE businesses through the vital provision of business continuity and disaster recovery solutions and reinforces Microsoft’s commitment to the UAE government, its business community, and its population.

Microsoft UAE “With the advent of the always-on economy, uptime and continuous access to critical data, applications, and workloads have become front-of-mind concerns for the region’s technology stakeholders. As businesses move forward amid increased industry upheavals and competition from market disrupters, competitiveness hinges on the ability to remain operational even as external issues destabilize markets and supply chains. Backups alone will not deliver such capabilities. Rapid recovery requires strategy-focused infrastructure and solutions to work effectively. That is what Azure Availability Zones delivers.”

Azure Availability Zones is a critical building block of comprehensive business continuity and disaster recovery strategy. It is designed to guarantee resilience and availability of business-critical applications and data in times of crisis, through advanced architecture and built-in, end-to-end security.
