The service consists of three modules, and each of them involves a series of specialized workshops conducted with the client and documentation supporting the path to the implementation of the Azure cloud.
The result of these meetings is a set of documents containing indications and answers to individual points adopted in the CAF methodology.
These materials are the basis for determining the strategy and standards for entering the cloud and the final implementation.

[Why to follow Road to the Cloud path?]
Taking the first steps in the cloud is an exciting stage for the company, but we must remember that the entire organization should be thoroughly prepared for it.
Thanks to the standards recommended by Microsoft Azure in the form of CAF, the organization is sure that it will start this stage in a safe and proven way.

PHASE 2: Developing a strategy
COST: 355 600 PLN net / 84667 $ net TYPE: Workshops + Assessment + Documents TIME: 5 – 12 months (depends on the organization)

STAGE 0: Development of a public cloud adoption strategy
In the “zero” phase, we start developing strategic directions for the adoption of cloud services and the cloud model as part of a series of workshops

STAGE 1: Developing principles for building solutions and migrating to the cloud
In the first stage, we assume the development of general principles for building the migration of solutions to the cloud, considering Microsoft Azure environments.

STAGE 2: Development of a set of operational documents
In the second stage, based on the principles developed in the first stage, we will create a group of operational documents for a specific and limited set of cloud services defined during the project.

STAGE 3: Transformation of the IT team, including the Cloud Competence Center
In the third stage, we will develop a set of documents gathering guidelines for the transformation of the IT team.

PHASE 3: Landing Zone - Analysis and implementation
COST: 201 600 PLN net / 48 000 $ net TYPE: Assessment + Support / Deployment TIME: 6 - 8 months

Construction of the “Landing Zone”

Choosing the implementation model (automation) and the method of Landing Zone (IaC) definition
Definition of the resource hierarchy structure
Identity for users and systems
Building a communication model and appropriate virtual networks
Security and compliance with security policies
Cost management and control
Implementation of essential elements of infrastructure, services, and systems

Analysis of the first systems
Preparation and analysis of a list of systems (including types of environments) for which the cloud model makes sense and marking those that will be subject to the migration process to a given cloud model
The result of the work done should be a clear picture of all systems, along with the indicated direction of development in the cloud.
Selection of migration methods for the analyzed systems
System migration
