Познавательная статья. Автор пришел к тому что на данном этапе Azure это и медленнее и дороже.
Цитата:
Costs-wise a D13v2 Standard tier machine running for 6 hours a day * 22 days * 12 months with an estimated cost of 1,2 GBP per hour it would put the annual price of a developer VM close to £2000. The same with Premium storage (1x 128 GB OS, 3x 512 GB storage) is roughly around 2,1 GBP per hour, putting the total at about £3300 per annum. If you build a decent workstation and acquire the product licenses, the bill stops around the lower price mark.
For now my decision is to stick to your own build that could support 1 or 2 developers per workstation, and have a look at Azure once their price drops considerably, or the throughput multiplies for the same amount.
