Scenarios

Migration of the applications from On-prem to the cloud to improve scalability and reduce the cost?

• Asses the current infra and identify any potential issues that may arise during the migration.

• Determine the target cloud environment as per our application needs. For more flexibility and customization choose Azure.

• Use Azure Site recovery service or AWS Database Migration Service(DMS)

Implement DR solutions for the availability of their critical applications

• Determine the applications and RTO and RPO

• Azure Traffic Manager or AWS Load balancing

• Azure Site Recovery to replicate the sites

• Regular testing to ensure application

Note: Azure Site Recovery is a DR solution offered by Microsoft. Contrary to this Azure Migrate is a tool used solely for cloud/Azure migration. 

Implement Data analytics solutions to gain access the insight into customer behaviour and improve the business.

• Identify the data requirements and goal to identify the data storage and tools such as Synapse analytics

• Data migration tools such as ADF to load data into the analytical platform

• Visualization tools such as PBI

Implement serverless architecture for their cloud to reduce the cost and scalability

• Identify the needs and suggest services such as Function

• APIM for the security

• Azure Logic app for the orchestration

Implement a Hybrid cloud environment to secure certain applications

• Identify App and Data

• Suggest cloud platforms like AWS outposts service or Azure stack service

• Create High-performance network connection using Express route or AWS direct connect. VPN is not suitable for consistent connectivity

• Implement cloud management solutions like Azure ARC or AWS control tower to manage and monitor the hybrid cloud environment.

Implement container-based architecture to improve application deployment and scalability

• AKS or AWS ECS, ECR Service to manage and orchestrate the service

• ACR to manage container images

• ACI to create the instance without managing the underlying infrastructure

• DevOps for automated pipeline

Implement multi-region architecture to improve application availability and reduce latency

• Identify the regions

• AWS Multi region service or Azure Traffic Manager to send the traffic to the closest region.

• Azure Site Recovery or AWS global infrastructure to ensure the failover of the secondary region in the event of failover

Implement a security solution to protect cloud environments from the cyber threat

• Identify vulnerabilities

• Azure Security Center or AWS Security Hub to provide centralized security management and monitoring

• WAF or AWS WAF to protect applications from the common threats 

• Azure AD or AWS IAM for user access and permission 

Implement a High-performance computing solution to support scientific research and simulations

• Identify the requirements of the scientific research and simulations such as the number of cores and the memory needed

• Azure HPC VM to meet the above requirement

• Azure Batch to manage and schedule the execution of batch computing workloads

• Azure Cycle cloud for the high-performance storage of the input/output data

Implement scalable web applications with high availability

• Identify traffic patterns

• VM Scale sets

• Azure Traffic management

• Cache for Radis to improve application performance

Implement a global CDN to improve application performance

• Identify App and Traffic

• Identify edge locations

• Azure CDN

• Azure DNS to route traffic to the nearest location

• Azure Cache for Radis
