We designed the Azure setup to match the client’s goals—organizing resources, setting up networks, and managing access. By keeping the structure simple and reusable, the team can now build and scale without starting from scratch each time.

We worked with the client to set up clear rules for security, access, and compliance. We also helped them track costs, monitor systems, and manage daily operations more easily.

Lastly, we reviewed the client’s application modernization strategy and the steps planned for implementation. This evaluation was important to ensure that their chosen cloud services were being used effectively. Based on this review, we designed a tailored application landing zone that would integrate smoothly with the existing foundational tools. This step was key to making sure the modernization approach aligned well with the client’s broader cloud adoption goals.

In just six weeks, we accelerated the development of a secure, scalable, and efficient cloud foundation that aligned with the client’s business and technical goals. This strong foundation was built to grow with the organization and help avoid common problems like rising costs, governance issues, and security risks. It also allowed the client to modernize their flagship product on time, making the most of what cloud technology has to offer.

We automated the deployment and management of their infrastructure using Terraform for infrastructure as code and GitHub Actions for all deployments. This created a fully automated, end-to-end pipeline that reduced manual work, minimized human error, and accelerated delivery timelines. By removing repetitive tasks and streamlining processes, the team was able to work more efficiently, requiring fewer development hours and less operational overhead. As a result, the client significantly reduced adoption costs - by 50% - while increasing the speed, reliability, and consistency of infrastructure changes.

We made major improvements to the client’s security and compliance, aligning their setup with well-known international standards like CIS, NIST, and PCI-DSS. This brought them to full compliance with Microsoft’s Cloud Security Benchmark, covering all key cloud-specific control areas. As a result, their data and resources are now better protected, potential security threats can be detected and addressed quickly, and their overall security posture is much stronger.

Our collaborative approach focused on helping the client’s team build their skills and gain the confidence to manage their Azure environment effectively. We provided thorough documentation and ensured a smooth handover process, which contributed to improving the overall quality of the digital products and services the business offers.

We implemented an operational readiness strategy equipped with the necessary tooling, logging, metrics, and alerts for optimal visibility and control over their applications. This advanced monitoring system allows the client to identify potential issues before they escalate, minimize downtime, and optimize resources for smooth and efficient application performance. As a result, the client has reported improved user experience, reduced operational issues, and enhanced resilience and performance of their cloud.
