Hello,

Is there a list of pros-cons for deploying a PHP application on the cloud for AWS or Azure?

Which factors would make AWS a better choice over Azure and Vice-versa?

If anyone has chosen to use, either one instead of the other for a number or reasons i would really want to know why.

regards,
