Both stand on data orchestration software. Which one you can start free with, which one lets you read the code, and what each costs once you pay.

Pick Azure Data Factory when hybrid deployment and mixed transformation are priorities. Its incremental loading, change data capture, and custom code transforms cover several listed workflow needs. Look elsewhere if you require a free plan or a deployment model other than hybrid.
