Azure Cloud Solutions

Azure landing zone & subscription structure

We design Azure landing zones and subscription structures that give you clear boundaries for environments, teams, and workloads.

• High-level subscription and management group strategies aligned to your organization.
• Baseline policies and configuration for security and compliance.
• Environment separation patterns that support safe releases and testing.

Azure networking

We help define VNet, subnet, and routing concepts that keep services connected and secure without unnecessary complexity.

• High-level VNet and subnet patterns for your core environments.
• Routing and connectivity approaches for hybrid and cloud-only setups.
• Network security considerations that support least-privilege access.

Compute & Storage

We guide VM and managed disk usage so workloads have appropriate performance, resilience, and cost characteristics.

• VM sizing and family guidance for representative workloads.
• Managed disk strategies for performance and lifecycle management.
• High-level patterns for scale sets or PaaS options where appropriate.

CI/CD on Azure

We implement CI/CD using GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps pipelines and can integrate with Octopus Deploy where it makes sense.

• CI workflows for build, test, and validation using GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps.
• Deployment patterns for Azure resources and applications, including Octopus Deploy where used.
• Consistent promotion flows across dev, test, staging, and production.

Cost management & optimization

We make use of Azure Cost Management capabilities to analyze spend and shape usage, budgets, and alerts.

• Review of current Azure usage to identify optimization opportunities.
• Budget and alert configuration using Azure Cost Management.
• Practical recommendations that teams can execute and maintain.

Observability

We help set up monitoring using Azure Monitor and Log Analytics concepts at a high level, aligned to your existing tools where appropriate.

• Monitoring and alerting baselines using Azure Monitor or compatible tools.
• Logging approaches that support troubleshooting and audit needs.
• Simple dashboards or views for key services and environments.

Identity & Governance

We apply Entra ID, RBAC, and policy concepts so access is controlled and auditable while remaining workable for engineering teams.

• High-level identity and access patterns using Entra ID and RBAC.
• Policy approaches that support compliance and guardrails without blocking delivery.
• Integration with existing identity and approval processes where needed.

DR & resilience

We help you use Azure Backup and site recovery concepts at a high level to meet realistic recovery objectives.

• Backup strategies for critical workloads, using Azure-native options where appropriate.
• Recovery planning and simple, testable runbooks.
• High-level patterns for regional redundancy when required.

Implementation methodology

We follow a structured, outcome-focused approach: discovery and scope, design and review, implementation in iterations, and handover with documentation and knowledge transfer. Delivery is phased so you have visibility at each step.

Engagement model

Our engagement models apply equally to Azure-focused work and hybrid cloud initiatives.

Ideal clients

• •Teams with existing AWS, Azure, or GCP usage who want to standardize and optimize.
• •Engineering organizations ready to adopt or mature IaC and CI/CD.
• •Leaders who need cost visibility, governance, and reliability without hype.
• •Companies that want hands-on engineering delivery and knowledge transfer.
