Microsoft Azure Cloud
Adoption Framework

Power-up your cloud transformation journey for undisrupted hypergrowth.Switch to a secure and fully optimized Azure cloud adoption framework

Organizations are producing more data than ever, adopting tech innovations, migrating to cloud platforms, and embracing digital-first business models. Firms, hence, cannot rely on traditional ITOps methods and processes anymore. Legacy IT systems, apps, tools running on on-prem datacenters are no longer cost-efficient or performance-intensive enough to deliver the scalability and agility businesses require to grow and compete in this hyper-competitive atmosphere.

A shift to the cloud, especially on hyperscaler platforms like Microsoft Azure, is imminent. But, are firms taking the right approach in their cloud adoption journeys?

Microsoft Azure Cloud Adoption Framework: Implemented by CloudEngin

More than 67% of enterprises embraced cloud-based infrastructure by the end of 2021

Microsoft Azure is one of the world’s leading cloud platforms owing to their native ecosystem versatility, advanced solutions and services, broad partner networks, and cost-effective pay-as-you-go integration models. However, to truly achieve the cloud’s promise, firms need to take a standardized approach that maximizes uptime across the stack, migration disruptions, and data losses and ensures that the entire architecture is best fit for the firm’s current and future business objectives. Unplanned migrations could only result in overprovisioning, unnecessary cloud sprawls that compromises operational budgets and security.
