They are looking to centralize their environment in Azure due to compatibility in Azure for Windows and SQL Server environments.

Challenge

Monitoring, Administration, Backups and Disaster recovery is a challenge in AWS. Cost of Windows machines was higher in AWS comparative to Azure.

Skilling in multiple cloud vendor was another challenge for small IT team.

Solution

We utilized Azure VPN gateway to remove Third party solution and instead used Azure native capabilities to achieve cost reduction. Also, Gizmofish were able to achieve the DR and backup at much lower cost as what they are paying in AWS. Utilizing Azure Database migration service played a key role in facilitating seamless transitions and ensuring efficient management of the migration process. This service enabled us to effectively migrate critical components, such as SQL server, to Azure, enhancing compatibility and streamlining operations. Additionally, leveraging Azure Database migration service allowed for cost-effective disaster recovery and backup solutions, further optimizing the client’s IT environment.
