• Number of Branches: 5

Requirement

This organization was consuming Azure services through a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement (EA). Due to the lock-in period and a requirement for personalized local support, the management decided to move their resources from Azure EA to the Azure CSP (Cloud Solution Provider) program.

• Key Goal: No disruption in Azure services during migration.

Our Methodology

• Audit: Audit the existing infrastructure - resources, connectivity, and dependencies.
• Orphaned Resources Assessment: Identify resources available in the existing subscription but no longer in use.
• Risk assessment: Assess the possible risks and business impact during the migration process.
• Plan: Draft the migration plan that minimises the risks and completes within the stipulated timeframe.
• Migration: Complete the migration utilising our expertise in the lift-and-shift migration model.
• Handover: Handover the new subscription with migrated resources to the customer.

Conclusion

We were able to migrate the resources with utmost precision and without any disruption to the customer’s business. Our Microsoft Azure Certified Associates completed the project in a very short span, potentially saving costs associated with unused resources or the previous agreement structure.
