Is GCC the same thing as Azure Gov’t (MAG)? NO!

At least a few times a month at Microsoft I’d get customers, resellers, and even internal folks less involved in Azure confuse these two terms.

TLDR

  • GCC (Government Community Cloud) = M365 for Gov’t Customers, FedRAMP Moderate
  • Azure Gov’t = Azure, FedRAMP High
