In an increasingly digital business environment, the agility, scalability and security of technology infrastructure are key factors for success. In this context, virtual machines (VMs) in Microsoft Azure have become a strategic solution for organizations looking to optimize their operations, reduce costs and gain flexibility.
What is a virtual machine in Azure?
A virtual machine is a simulated computing environment that functions like a physical computer, but is hosted in the cloud. Azure allows you to create and manage these VMs according to your business needs, without having to invest in physical hardware.
✅ Benefits of using virtual machines in Azure.
1. Scalability on demand.
You can increase or decrease the resources (CPU, RAM, storage) of your VMs as your business grows, only paying for what you actually use.
2. Infrastructure cost savings
Eliminate expenses on physical equipment, maintenance and space. Azure offers flexible pay-per-use or subscription models.
3. High availability and operational continuity
Azure guarantees a robust infrastructure with automatic backups, load balancing and availability zones to keep your services always active.
4. Integrated security
With tools such as Azure Security Center, encryption, firewalls and automatic operating system updates, your VMs will be protected against threats.
5. Ease of administration
From a centralized dashboard you can manage, monitor and update all your virtual machines. In addition, you can automate recurring tasks.
