Migrated a set of virtual machines along with their services
Challenge
Our client, a global company specializing in custom distribution and supply chain solutions, recognized the need to migrate a set of on-premises IT services (currently hosted on physical servers and virtual machines) to Microsoft Azure. This migration covers various workloads, such as applications, infrastructure, and database servers.
Before starting the project, the company had no existing Azure resources, services, or established Azure landing zones. Therefore, considering the challenges involved in setting up this new environment, the development of Azure services had to start from scratch.
Previously, the company’s IT services were hosted on a private cloud managed by Syntax, an enterprise cloud solutions and services provider. This setup required significant coordination and effort to make changes or implement new features. This technical background made transitioning to a Microsoft Azure environment more complex and time-consuming.
Solution
Due to its extensive expertise and years of experience with Microsoft technology, DIGITALL was selected as an implementation partner. The project was carried out in close collaboration with the client and consisted of the following phases.
- Discovery and Assessment of the Current Mode of Operation: Evaluating the existing infrastructure and identifying dependencies to ensure a smooth transition to Azure.
- Azure Landing Zone Architecture, Design, and Implementation: Designing and implementing a secure and scalable Azure landing zone tailored to the client’s requirements.
