8. Lift and Shift
Azure Saturday | June 24th, 2017 | #AzureSaturday
• Easy going and what you already know
• Common scenario in IaaS situations
• Workload migration on SaaS scenarios
• Higher cost
• More individuality

9. Migrate and Change
• Breaking with old standards
• e.g. use SQL as a Service instead of IaaS VM
• Application Layer decision
• Cost saving
• Transformation to a future model
• More complex
 see SQL sessions today

12. Enable O365
for user for
O365 ProPlus
IT deploys
AAD and
ProPlus
Everything
seems fine
Users need
more
flexibilty
IT has own
plans
Users start
using…
Scenario 1 – Office 365 ProPlus

13. Scenario 2 – Azure Migration
Azure Saturday | June 24th, 2017 | #AzureSaturday
Company
signs Azure
EA
IT deploys
first
subscription
Migration of
resources is
planned
Subsidiary
uses Azure via
CreditCard
Runs new SAP
farm in Azure
Cost is billed
to corp
CreditCardHR signs CSP
contract
New carreer
portal is built
by partner
Cost is billed

center
Facility
management

hardware

14. Scenario 3 – Application Move
Azure Saturday | June 24th, 2017 | #AzureSaturday
Azure
Subscription
is set up
Application is
migrated to
Azure PaaS
Up and
running in
the cloud
Software
Vendor checks
compliance
Contract does
not allow
usage Off-Site
License fee
and penalty

15. Where to start?
• Check your inventory
• Check your contracts
• Check your needs
• Check your benefit
• Check the solution
Information is the base of success
Azure Saturday | June 24th, 2017 | #AzureSaturday

16. What to consider?
• Azure is too simple  Everybody can use it
• Define the rules and check it twice
• Azure consumption is billed  there is no limit
• Solution must fit your needs
• Users are the key to success
• Identity is the new perimeter
• Moving to the cloud is a transformational process
• Roles and Rules are key
