Often, when migrating to the cloud, organizations resort to using servers out of old habit, but by purchasing virtual servers, you are only buying Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). In this case, you are responsible for the entire server, starting from the operating system level, and for ensuring its continuity. A better option is often to strive to choose cloud platform services (PaaS) where possible, thereby outsourcing the maintenance and continuity of the server and operating system level to the cloud service provider, and focusing yourself on managing the application running on the Microsoft-maintained platform.   <\/p><p>It is a very clear choice that by outsourcing responsibility, you gain significantly more in terms of continuity. As Microsoft maintains the services in the background, it aims to ensure the fault tolerance of the platform it provides. Let&#8217;s take Azure Kubernetes Services as an example. By building containers on top of your individual servers, you rely on the fault tolerance you&#8217;ve built yourself, but by choosing <g id=\"gid_0\">Azure Kubernetes Services<\/g> as platform services, you scale your container platform geographically across multiple data centers within the same Azure region. It is therefore very clear to see which option is a more reliable choice for continuity.    <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-745fa69 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"745fa69\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-35262f9\" data-id=\"35262f9\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-78866b2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"78866b2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Backup Also Involves Choices<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7420e9a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7420e9a\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1a4a4a2\" data-id=\"1a4a4a2\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f546562 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f546562\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When we talk about backing up services, the same principles apply. When backing up servers, you back up the operating system and the data stored within the server. When backing up platform services, Azure cloud offers pre-designed solutions.

There might be slightly fewer things to take care of depending on your choices, but at a minimum, you are always responsible for your own data in cloud services. Therefore, your own plan should be compared to the shared responsibility model, and you should strive to ensure that potential recovery is sufficiently efficient for your business needs.  <\/p><p>However, no plan is truly a plan until its functionality has been tested. It is advisable to practice recovery from various everyday situations and to test the functionality of backups. Can you be sure that the database you maintain is recoverable in the way you envision if you have never tested recovery?  <\/p><p>The Savonians are right. It is important to remember that the responsibility lies with the recipient. As partners, we can help ensure business operations and their continuity, but ultimately, you in IT management are responsible for your own IT environment and the business fuel within it. Responsibility can be shared, but it can never be fully outsourced. Therefore, it is important that you also remain aware of continuity and the status of backups, and regularly test recoveries in cooperation with your partner. Also, <g id=\"gid_0\">administrative security<\/g> and related continuity documentation are key if things ever need to be rectified.
