REDWOOD CITY, Calif.<\/span>, Feb. 28, 2026 \/PRNewswire\/ — Zilliz<\/a><\/u>, the company behind Milvus<\/a><\/u>, the world’s most widely adopted open-source vector database<\/a><\/u>, today announced the general availability of Zilliz Cloud BYOC<\/a><\/u> (Bring Your Own Cloud) on Microsoft Azure. With this launch, Zilliz Cloud<\/a><\/u> BYOC is now available across AWS, Google Cloud Platform, and Microsoft Azure\u2014making Zilliz the first managed vector database provider to support BYOC on all three major clouds.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Enterprises building AI applications have long faced a trade-off between managed services that require moving sensitive data outside their security perimeter and self-hosted deployments that demand significant engineering resources. Zilliz Cloud BYOC eliminates this compromise by deploying a fully managed vector database directly inside a customer’s own cloud account\u2014enabling organizations to move faster on AI initiatives without sacrificing data control or compliance.<\/p>\n

"The AI infrastructure landscape is at an inflection point. Enterprises need platforms that respect their security, compliance, and multi-cloud realities," said Charles Xie<\/span><\/b>, Founder and CEO at Zilliz. "With BYOC on every major cloud, we’re removing one of the last barriers to enterprise AI adoption. Organizations no longer have to choose between moving fast and staying in control."<\/i><\/p>\n

Why the Azure Launch Matters<\/b><\/p>\n

The Azure launch completes a deliberate expansion\u2014from AWS to GCP and now to Microsoft Azure. For the many enterprises standardized on Microsoft’s cloud ecosystem, this launch removes the last deployment barrier. Organizations can now run their vector database<\/a><\/u> in the same environment as Azure OpenAI Service and the rest of their Azure AI stack\u2014eliminating cross-cloud data movement, reducing costs, and keeping AI workflows entirely within a single cloud environment.<\/p>\n

Azure customers also benefit from full compatibility with their existing enterprise agreements, reserved capacity, and established governance and compliance frameworks. With the official Zilliz Cloud Terraform Provider<\/a><\/u>, teams can automate BYOC deployments and integrate directly into existing infrastructure-as-code workflows\u2014making adoption seamless for organizations already operating at scale on Azure.<\/p>\n
