Azure Cloud Services

How does Azure work?

This Azure cloud computing service platform operates through a global network of Microsoft-managed data centers. The working of Azure is illustrated below:

• Request: You request a specific service or resource (e.g., a virtual machine, a database, a web app) through the Azure portal, command-line tools, or code.
• Provisioning: Azure's underlying infrastructure automatically provisions (sets up) the requested resources within its data centers. This happens virtually, meaning you get a dedicated slice of resources without needing to manage the physical hardware.
• Access: You then access and manage these provisioned resources and services over the internet. Microsoft handles the maintenance, security, and updates of the underlying physical infrastructure.
• Pay-as-you-go: You pay only for the resources you consume, typically based on usage (e.g., per hour for a virtual machine, per GB for storage). This eliminates large upfront capital expenditures.

High-end Flexibility

With Azure, you can scale your infrastructure effortlessly. Whether you need to increase resources during high-demand periods or scale down during quieter times, Azure provides the flexibility to align your cloud resources with your exact needs. This ensures that you only pay for what you use, making your business more cost-efficient.

High Availability

Our Azure cloud services ensure maximum uptime, keeping your services running smoothly. With built-in redundancy and a Service Level Agreement (SLA) of up to 99.99%, we ensure the operational efficiency of your systems even in the face of hardware failure or technical disruptions.

Better Security

Security is paramount, and Azure leads the industry with its multi-layered security protocols. As an experienced Azure cloud security service provider, we follow all the best practices, from advanced threat protection to data encryption, to ensure the digital solutions migrated to Azure remain highly secure. Additionally, Azure is compliant with global standards, including GDPR, HIPAA, and ISO 27001, ensuring your data is always protected.

Performance Optimization

Azure’s cutting-edge technology ensures that your applications run at peak performance. With access to powerful virtual machines, data storage, and processing capabilities, we ensure that your applications and services perform quickly and reliably, whether hosting websites, running databases, or supporting enterprise applications.

Faster Time-to-Market

Our Azure solutions accelerate the development and deployment of applications and services. Using Azure’s DevOps tools, we enable faster iteration cycles, reducing your time-to-market for new products or updates. This gives your business a competitive edge by enabling rapid response to market changes.

Data-Driven Insights

Azure comes with a robust set of analytics and AI tools that transform raw data into actionable insights. With these tools, we help you make data-driven decisions that improve your business processes, enhance customer experiences, and boost overall performance.

Simplified Management

With Azure, you can manage your entire IT environment from a single, unified portal. Our team helps you configure and monitor your cloud resources using Azure’s intuitive dashboards, streamlining operations and reducing administrative overhead.

Innovation at Scale

Azure enables you to leverage advanced technologies, including Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and the Internet of Things (IoT), all integrated into a single platform. Whether you're innovating new products or improving operational efficiency, Azure provides the tools to drive transformation at scale.

Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity

We offer built-in disaster recovery solutions with Azure, ensuring that your critical business applications can recover quickly in the event of unexpected events or disasters.

Initial Assessment

As an experienced Azure cloud service provider, we understand your current IT infrastructure, workloads, and business objectives to design the migration strategy. Our team begins by conducting a cloud readiness assessment, which identifies legacy systems, security challenges, and other key factors.

• Azure Migrate for discovery, assessment, and dependency mapping.
• Cloud adoption framework for a comprehensive roadmap for cloud transformation.
• Azure cost management to estimate the cost of your current workflows.

Strategy Formulation

Based on our assessment, we will prepare a foolproof cloud migration strategy. We define the migration approach, which can be lift-and-shift, replatforming, or re-architecting. Additionally, based on your requirements, we will design an optimized Azure architecture that includes network setup, storage, scalability, and load balancing.

• Azure Architecture Center for designing the most efficient cloud infrastructure.
• Azure Security Center for implementing security measures.
• Azure Policy to automate compliance and governance processes.

Pilot Testing

Before performing full-scale migration, our team tests Azure cloud migration assumptions, validates performance, and uncovers potential challenges. We start with a pilot migration that covers testing, resolving issues, and performance monitoring.

• Azure Monitor for real-time monitoring.
• Azure Migrate to reassess the migration progress.
• Azure Log Analytics to gain deep insights into logs and help with troubleshooting.

Full-scale Migration

Once our Azure cloud service providers have initiated pilot migration, it’s time to perform full-scale migration. We migrate your workloads to Azure with minimal downtime and impact on your business operations. From planning migration windows to automation, we perform every step with precision.

• Azure Site Recovery to automate and streamline the migration.
• Azure Database Migration Service to move the database to Azure with minimal downtime.
• Azure DevOps to automate deployment pipelines.

Post-Migration Optimization

Through post-migration optimization, we ensure optimal performance, security, and cost management. Our Azure cloud solutions providers perform a range of steps, from performance tuning to security audits, to ensure optimal working of your migrated solution.

• Azure Cost Management and Billing to optimize resource usage and manage costs.
• Azure Sentinel for continuous security monitoring and incident response.
• Azure Automation for managing and maintaining cloud resources efficiently.

Continuous Monitoring

We ensure you maintain complete control over your Azure environment through continuous optimization. Our Azure cloud service providers monitor the resource utilization, governance, and continuous improvement.

• Azure Monitor and Application Insights for monitoring and real-time troubleshooting.
• Azure Policy to ensure governance compliance.

• We perform a comprehensive pre-migration assessment to ensure that you get a solution tailored to your needs.
• Our team performs a phased migration approach to minimize risks and maximize control.
• We ensure that security is integrated into every phase through our DevScops approach.
• Our team ensures continuous communication at every step to avoid misunderstanding and delays.
• We focus on long-term value through ongoing optimization and cost management.

• Initial Consultation: We assess your business needs and provide tailored Azure cloud strategies, including cost optimization and security consulting.
• Architecture & Design: Our team ensures to design scalable and secure Azure cloud solutions using Kubernetes and SQL.
• Migration: We seamlessly migrate workloads, data, and apps to Azure, including lift-and-shift or refactoring for cloud-native benefits.
• DevOps & Automation: Our team sets up CI/CD pipelines, automates deployments with Azure DevOps, and integrates Azure Functions and containers for efficient app delivery.
• Cloud Management: We continuously optimize costs, monitor performance via Azure Monitor, and implement governance using Azure Policy.
• Security & Compliance: Our Azure cloud service providers ensure the security of data through Azure Security Center and ensure meeting industry-specific compliance, including GDPR and HIPAA.
