Managed Azure Infrastructure
Ensure your success in the public cloud
Looking to move your IT infrastructure to the public cloud for lower costs, greater agility, and improved scalability? Then you need to make sure you have the right configuration and operation of the various Azure services. Failure to do so can result in high and avoidable costs, for example, because IT resources are not properly sized. The acute threat to IT security is even more dramatic if key security features are not effective.
Secure operation instead of risk
Avoid such risks from the beginning and opt for managed services from CANCOM: certified cloud experts professionally set up the cloud infrastructure stack in your tenant for your company. We also offer additional consulting services for very specific migration requirements. Once the migration is complete, we take over the management of the Azure cloud infrastructure and ensure its secure operation. In addition, CANCOM specialists continuously review how reliability, security, cost and efficiency can be further optimized.
Core Components of Managed Azure Infrastructure
To enable your organization to run mission-critical IT applications on Azure Infrastructure, you need the following components:
Landing Zone
The Landing Zone is the basic infrastructure for running your business-critical applications on Azure. To benefit from the advantages of the public cloud, important parameters must be professionally set up before operations can begin. These include IT governance access rights and virtual network management.
