Belitsoft's Azure cloud migration services allow for the convenient and efficient transfer of business applications, web servers, file servers, and other workloads to Azure with minimal effort and cost, while maintaining a secure environment.
Our experts balance strong software development expertise with a state-of-the-art approach to managing Azure cloud migration. We start by examining and evaluating your on-premises resources and making informed decisions based on insights gained. Then, we make a phased migration to Azure, and concurrently modernize your applications to achieve rapid innovation and maximize ROI.
An investment in on-premises hosting and data centers can be a waste of money nowadays, because cloud technologies provide significant advantages, such as usage-based pricing and the capacity to scale up and down easily. In addition, your downtime risks will be near-zero in comparison with on-premises infrastructure. Migration to the cloud from the on-premises model requires time, so the earlier you start, the better.

Azure Migration Process
Assess
Discover. Our experts use cloud migration assessment tools to gather an inventory of your current physical and virtual servers, along with performance data about your applications. Use this info to proceed with your cloud migration.
Map. Our team maps servers and groups them based on their relevant applications to understand dependencies and suitability for the cloud. Get a comprehensive view of applications and their interdependencies.
Evaluate. Determine the best migration strategy for each app group by assessing Azure's recommendations and evaluating costs, to choose the most suitable strategy within your budget.
Migrate
Rehost. Lift-shift migration is a no-code change approach to moving applications to Azure, utilizing orchestration on the Azure platform. This strategy works best for applications without modifications.
Refactor. In this step, the application design is slightly modified, but the code remains unchanged. This allows the application to leverage the benefits of Azure's IaaS and PaaS services.
Rearchitect. This process involves the alteration of the application codebase to be compatible with the cloud, which can modernize, change, or make it scalable and deployable by itself.
Rebuild. This pace entails the reconstruction of the complete application through cloud-native applications, leveraging the services provided by Azure PaaS.
Optimize
Analyze. Our team optimizes your Azure cloud spending with Azure Cost Management, delivering accurate and transparent analysis of your cloud expenses. You gain insight into the usage and expenditures to make more informed decisions and plan for future investments.
Save. We optimize your migrated environment to accommodate workloads efficiently using Azure's exclusive features, like Azure Hybrid Benefit and Azure Reserved Virtual Machine Instances.
Reinvest. We take advantage of the flexibility provided by Azure to make modifications, enhance security, and optimize your migrated and existing workloads, which can lead to cost savings.
Secure and manage
Secure. Our specialists use the Azure Security Center to manage cloud safety and provide advanced threat protection for your workloads. With Azure security, you get added defense, full visibility and control over your cloud application's security, as well as improved threat detection and recovery rates.
Protect Data. Storing app backups in Azure, we can assist your data from security dangers, prevent costly disruptions, and ensure regulatory compliance.
