How Azure data and analytics benefit organisations like yours

Regardless of size and sector, any organisation handling data faces challenges – from storing and protecting it effectively to harnessing it to improve processes and services.

Azure data and analytics simplify the complexities that come with managing data in the cloud and give you a route to ongoing innovation.

How we work with you

With accredited consulting and engineering expertise, our Data Platforms Team uses our proven methodology and resources to map out your requirements for all stakeholders.

Throughout our partnership with you, we’ll use the five Rs of rationalisation approach to determine whether to re-host, re-platform, re-architect, rebuild or replace your data assets. For example, we can help you with:

  • Rehosting: Azure is the most cost-effective Cloud for Windows and SQL Server workloads. If you’re seeking the cost benefits of Azure’s cloud infrastructure, we can repurpose existing on-premises licensing investments and help you take advantage of Hybrid Benefits
  • Re-platforming: If you’re looking to move existing apps to a cloud platform, we can reduce the amount of time you spend managing database instances by migrating to Azure SQL DB or a fully managed SQL instance.
