Azure, a cloud computing service provided by Microsoft since 2009, recorded a 62% year-on-year increase in division revenue in the second quarter of 2020, and in March 2020 due to the spread of new coronavirus infections. It has already become one of Microsoft's core businesses, with usage rates increasing by a factor of eight . AWS is a competing service of Azure, and with the inclusion of Mojnag Studios under the umbrella of Microsoft, it could be said that it was only a matter of time before the Minecraft Realm platform moved from AWS to Azure.
Matt Bootie , the head of Xbox Game Studios, responded to the game news media GamesIndustry.biz 's question 'Why did you not move Minecraft Realms from AWS to Azure immediately after acquiring Mojang?' 'It's easy for a big company to break into the operation of Mojang Studios and instruct them to'throw away the Java version and move to the Windows 10 version and move the platform of Minecraft Realms from AWS to Azure.' 'It's difficult to reproduce how and under what conditions Minecraft was created on different corporate platforms,' he says.
