In our experience, most IT modernisation is triggered when data centre contracts are about to expire, major software and hardware refresh or security threats are looming, software support is about to end, or there is regulatory compliance that needs to be met. However, when you rely on on-premises IT environments, addressing these triggers can be challenging, costly, complex, or time consuming.
Migrating to the Microsoft Azure cloud platform can help you solve and simplify these challenges.
Microsoft defines Azure as a flexible and open cloud platform that enables organisations to quickly build, deploy, and manage applications in its data centres. It has various workloads to address your Infrastructure as a Service (Iaas), Platform as a Service (Paas), and Software as a Service (Saas) needs.
Your data and apps stay secure as it runs on one of the most robust and compliant cloud platforms in the market.
Save on data centre and hardware leasing and avoid costs on license renewals.
Gain agility, enhance performance, and operate at a global scale. No need for patching or upgrading.
Protect against infrastructure disruptions by eliminating single point of failures and maintaining synchronous replication.
