Have you ever had a customer ask where you, as their CSP, fit into their Azure solution?<\/p>\n

They\u2019re thrilled to me moving their workloads to the cloud. No more servers to manage, no more storage. So many expenses and capital investments gone! And now Azure will manage itself and keep everything secure all by itself. Right?<\/p>\n

Wrong.<\/p>\n

Microsoft makes tremendous effort to assure that customers know they are entering into a \u201cshared responsibility\u201d model.<\/p>\n

Microsoft Responsibilities<\/h2>\n

Azure is a cloud services platform that offers a tremendous scope and variety of services. Compute services, storage services, security services, automation services, and much more. Most fundamentally, Azure provides the core services of the physical hosts that run the virtual machines, the physical network everything communicates over, and the physical plant of the many global datacenters in which all these services operate.<\/p>\n

Shared Responsibilities<\/h2>\n

The places in which your customers share responsibility with Microsoft depend upon whether they are using Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), or Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS).<\/p>\n

For example, if they\u2019re using Azure for SaaS or PaaS, your customer and Microsoft will share responsibility for the identity and directory infrastructure.<\/p>\n

In PaaS implementations Microsoft will also share responsibility for the network controls and applications with your customer.<\/p>\n

Your Customer\u2019s Responsibilities<\/h2>\n

More responsibility shifts to your customer when they\u2019re using Azure IaaS services. They own responsibility for the identity and directory infrastructure, the operating systems, network controls, and all the applications.<\/p>\n

Whether they\u2019re using SaaS, PaaS, or IaaS Azure services, there are several resources that must be managed by the customer. These include all accounts and all identities, management and security of all mobile and desktop devices, all information, and all data.<\/p>\n

By contrast, in an on-premises setting the customer owned responsibility for managing everything.<\/p>\n

Your Responsibilities and Your Opportunities<\/h2>\n

It is altogether likely that your customer is not prepared to execute on any of their responsibilities in this shared responsibilities model. That\u2019s not what they do for a living, and that\u2019s why they\u2019ve turned to you for assistance with their IT requirements.<\/p>\n

Now, it is also altogether likely your customers will need your help handling their shared responsibilities.<\/p>\n

This creates an excellent opportunity for you to deepen your relationships with your customers and become even more of a key resource and business partner with them.<\/p>\n
