Azure Local (formerly Azure Stack HCI) is a powerful but expensive, subscription-based hybrid cloud platform. It is best suited for large-scale, Microsoft-heavy enterprises that specifically require on-premises Azure services for latency or regulatory reasons. For many other users, traditional Hyper-V on Windows Server is a more cost-effective and flexible alternative that avoids recurring subscription fees and restrictive hardware requirements.

Por qué cambiar: Avoids recurring Azure subscription costs, uses existing storage infrastructure, and works with broader hardware choices.
May be more cost-effective for smaller deployments that do not meet the scale requirements of a full Azure Local cluster.
