BENEFIT FROM OUR FREE DATACENTER ASSESSMENT
We can help you with the Move
Cloud Readiness Assessment Workshop
We conduct Datacenter Cloud Readiness assessment workshops during which we discover the complete environment of on-premise data center, assess which VMs are ready to move to Azure and what are the gaps for the remaining. At the end, we submit a detailed report with the findings and recommendations including a cost estimate, TCO and ROI.
Identify workloads for Migration
We work with the clients to identify and prioritize which workloads to move to the cloud and the dependencies between workloads. During this exercise we assess the risk related to each workload, performance and downtime when moved to Azure.
Migrating to Azure
We can help you Migrate to Azure from any environment: Windows, VMWARE, Linux.
We offer Microsoft Azure migration services if you either want to migrate your workload from on-premise or another cloud such as AWS, Oracle, Rackspace, or any other hosting provider.
We use certified tools from Microsoft to complete the migration, with zero downtime. We are not limited to virtual environments, but the move includes physical servers, SQL servers, Web Servers, and LOB servers.
Testing Migrated Servers
With every workload we migrate to Azure, we execute the testing necessary to verify that the servers are working properly. Several tests related to application performance are completed to guarantee an excellent user’s experience.
Optimizing Migrated Servers
Our engagement with the customer doesn’t stop with migrating the servers. We monitor your consumption and performance for the following three months to optimize cost and performance.
