Utilizing best practices and tools within the Cloud Adoption Framework, Cloud 9 quickly and strategically created a plan to implement Bushmans’ migration to the cloud.
Cloud 9 recommended that Bushmans’ rehost their entire Windows Server infrastructure (including business apps) on Azure public cloud services. Microsoft Azure provides a stable and secure environment.
Cloud 9 was engaged to meet the following goals:
- Provision and rehost the hardware resources and business processes from on-prem servers to Azure.
- Install and migrate the COTS Famous application and database from on-prem to Azure.
To achieve the above goals for Bushmans’, Cloud 9 architected, tested and implemented a solution that would:
- Deploy the Azure Infrastructure
- Setup Site to Site VPN from the on-prem network to Azure network
- Migrate the database of the COTS Famous application from on-prem to an Azure Virtual Machine and decommission the on-prem application server.
- Migrate their large company-wide file share from an on-prem location to an Azure location.
