An ideal combination for high-availability.

If your website is critical for your business and built on WordPress, a high-availability solution is essential. High availability ensures your website remains accessible even during hardware failures, software issues, or unexpected traffic spikes.

WordPress powers over 40% of websites, and since 2008, we've built campaign sites, corporate websites, and customer portals on the platform. However, in our experience, traditional hosting solutions limit WordPress’s potential and increase your risks, which is where Azure comes in.

We combine WordPress with Microsoft Azure's robust infrastructure and services to deliver high availability, meeting our clients’ business demands—no downtime, lost revenue, or diminished customer trust.

Why Choose Azure Over AWS for WordPress Hosting

AWS is often considered the gold standard for enterprise WordPress hosting. Why use Azure? When deciding between Azure and AWS for hosting your WordPress site, Azure offers unique advantages that may align better with your business needs. Azure's seamless integration with other Microsoft services, such as Office 365 and Active Directory, makes it an ideal choice for enterprises already embedded in the Microsoft ecosystem. Additionally, Azure's robust support for .NET applications, coupled with its extensive global network of data centres, ensures optimal performance and reliability for WordPress sites. For businesses seeking strong hybrid cloud capabilities and a unified platform for managing both cloud and on-premises resources, Azure stands out as a compelling option.

Azure: The Foundation of Reliable High Availability

Microsoft Azure is a leading cloud computing platform, offering a robust infrastructure that is purpose-built for high availability. When delivering WordPress sites that demand high availability, we rely on Azure's global network of data centres to ensure your website stays online, even during server failures or traffic surges.

Essential Azure Services for High-Performance WordPress

Azure Virtual Machines - Scalable virtual servers that can adjust to varying traffic demands.
Azure Blob Storage - Dependable and scalable storage solutions for your website’s assets.

How WordPress and Azure Work Together

Deploying WordPress on Azure amplifies the capabilities of both platforms, ensuring your website can handle everyday traffic fluctuations and unexpected surges while maintaining continuous availability. Key advantages of the WordPress-Azure partnership include:

Scalability - Azure’s auto-scaling features manage traffic spikes without compromising performance.
Redundancy - Azure’s network of multiple data centres reduces the risk of downtime.
Security - Azure provides robust security features, including DDoS protection, to keep your website secure.
Global Reach - Fast content delivery worldwide enhances the user experience. You can achieve this through Azure’s CDN or integrate with Cloudflare for additional global distribution and performance optimisation.
