Sometimes the current databases are just not fit for operating on the cloud, leading to massive total costs.
Modernise Databases with Azure.
Drive lower TCO, improved security and development capabilities by replatforming or refactoring existing databases to managed Azure databases.
Level up database operations with Azure.
There’s no one-size fits-all approach to database migration. We help you find the best strategy based on your business objectives.
We guide you through the process, striking the right balance between speed and sustainable results. We start with assessment workshops that engage stakeholders to understand the business objectives and help picking the right modernisation strategy. Based on the defined objective, our cloud database specialists and application architects execute the modernisation of the database and if required, related applications. Our cloud native approach saves you time and money, while positioning you to make the most out of the cloud benefits.
Do these challenges sound familiar?
High database TCO
Security
Data is one of the most valuable assets of modern companies. Securing them against cyber threats is key to keeping the business operational and competitive.
Development needs
Needs for advanced analytics or other business needs put pressure for developing new capabilities on the data. Sometimes the existing database is just not right for the modern needs.
End-of-life database versions
Applications running on older versions of databases may be using database engines that are nearing the end of their lifecycle and need to be upgraded to versions that are supported by the vendors.
The Database Modernisation Journey.
Our Solution.
Database virtual machine migration
Migration of databases to a newer version of the same database engine running on an Azure virtual machine to keep the database within support of the vendor.
Database replatforming to PaaS
Migration of database to a similar Azure managed database to enjoy the built-in security safeguards, minimize operating effort, simplify licensing and enable advanced development integrations provided by the tight integration with other Azure services.
Database refactoring to PaaS
Remove dependency from existing databases that are just not fit technically or commercially for the current business needs by refactoring to a managed Azure database such as Azure SQL. Enjoy the built-in security safeguards, minimize operating effort, simplify licensing and enable advanced development integrations provided by the tight integration with other Azure services.
