Steps and agenda

The steps and agenda of a Microsoft Azure migration can vary depending on the specific needs and goals of your organization. However, a typical Azure migration process may include the following steps:
• Assessment: The first step in a Microsoft Azure migration is to assess your organization’s current IT environment and workloads, to identify which assets can be migrated to Azure and determine any potential challenges or limitations.
• Planning: Once the assessment is complete, the next step is to create a detailed migration plan that outlines the specific steps and resources needed to successfully migrate your workloads to Microsoft Azure.
• Preparation: Before starting the actual migration, we prepare your Microsoft Azure environment and ensure that it is properly configured and ready to support your migrated workloads. This may involve tasks such as setting up Microsoft Azure resource groups, creating Microsoft Azure virtual networks, and configuring Azure storage and backup services.
• Migration: During the migration phase, we move your workloads to Azure, following the steps and instructions outlined in the migration plan.
• Testing and validation: After your workloads have been migrated to Microsoft Azure, it’s important to test and validate them to ensure that they are functioning properly and meeting your organization’s needs.
• Go-live and support: Once the workloads have been successfully migrated to Azure and tested, we can go live with your Microsoft Azure environment and begin using it to support your business operations.
