Business disruptions, tactical pivots, and remote work have all emphasized the critical role that analytics plays in all organizations. Uncharted situations demand proven performance insights so that businesses can quickly determine what is and is not working. In recent months, the urgency for business-guiding insights has only been heightened, leading to a need for real-time analytics solutions. Equally important is the need to discover and share these insights in the most cost-effective manner.

Not only has COVID-19 been a challenge to world health but also has created new economic challenges to businesses worldwide. These challenges have resulted in an increased need for tools that quickly deliver insights to business leaders—empowering informed decisions. This is where Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics can help.

Using Azure Synapse, businesses can empower their teams to collaborate, adapt, and create new strategies that are driven by data. Azure Synapse not only makes it easy to start and scale in the cloud, but it has key security, governance, and monitoring tools that are critical for successful data analytics solutions.

Save on costs with Azure Synapse


The current economic challenges have certainly made us all—individuals and businesses—more conscious of our spending. Businesses are looking for new ways to improve productivity and efficiency on limited budgets. Cloud analytics in general, and Azure Synapse in particular, are a great fit for this requirement because it helps businesses start small and scale as needed.

Azure Synapse offers a cost-effective service due to its intelligent architecture, which separates storage, compute power, and resources—but makes them seamlessly available when needed. This means that you do not have to keep paying for cloud services if you experience unexpected events that cause business disruptions and tactical pivots. Services can simply be paused to release resources and save costs. You can also scale compute separately from storage, which brings even more cost savings.

The study surveyed many services from all of the major cloud providers and took both performance and cost into account. Besides being powerful and cost-effective, Azure Synapse offers industry-leading features when it comes to governance, monitoring, and collaboration that address key challenges for data analytics projects. These features provide businesses with the right tools to control not only costs but also the entire analytics lifecycle, including security, performance, and accuracy.
