Azure Migration FAQ
Azure Cloud Migration is the process of moving on-premises infrastructure, applications, and data to the Microsoft Azure cloud platform. It involves discovery and assessment of existing workloads, architecture design for the target Azure environment, infrastructure deployment using Azure Landing Zone best practices, migration execution using Azure Migrate and Azure Site Recovery, validation testing, and post-migration optimisation. MaximyzCloud manages this entire process using the Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework — ensuring migrations are structured, de-risked, and deliver measurable business outcomes.
Azure migration timelines vary by portfolio size and complexity. Small business migrations of 20 to 50 servers typically complete in 6 to 12 weeks. Mid-market migrations of 100 to 300 servers usually take 3 to 6 months. Enterprise migrations with 500+ servers run 6 to 18 months using a phased wave approach. The discovery and assessment phase typically takes 2 to 4 weeks, landing zone setup 2 to 3 weeks, and then wave-by-wave migration proceeds. MaximyzCloud provides a detailed programme plan with milestone dates during the initial assessment phase.
Microsoft Azure supports migration of virtually all enterprise workloads — Windows and Linux servers, SQL Server and Oracle databases, .NET and Java applications, web servers, file servers, SAP workloads, Microsoft 365 hybrid environments, and custom LOB applications. Azure has particular strengths for Windows and SQL Server workloads through the Azure Hybrid Benefit programme, which can reduce licensing costs by up to 40% for existing Microsoft licence holders. MaximyzCloud's migration assessment identifies the most suitable Azure services and migration approach for each workload in your portfolio.
Yes — Azure is a market leader in hybrid cloud through Azure Arc, which extends Azure management, security, and services to on-premises, multi-cloud, and edge environments. Azure Arc enables unified governance, Azure Policy enforcement, and Azure Monitor visibility across hybrid infrastructure from a single control plane. Azure Stack HCI and ExpressRoute provide high-performance, low-latency connectivity between on-premises datacentres and Azure regions. MaximyzCloud designs hybrid Azure architectures for organisations with compliance, latency, or phased migration requirements that prevent full immediate cloud adoption.
MaximyzCloud uses Azure Site Recovery for continuous block-level replication of VMs to Azure, enabling cutover windows as short as minutes with minimal data loss. For databases, Azure Database Migration Service provides online migration with ongoing change data capture — allowing source databases to remain fully operational until the brief cutover moment. We conduct parallel-run validation where both source and target environments operate simultaneously, verifying application functionality before committing to cutover. Scheduled cutovers during low-traffic windows and tested rollback procedures complete our zero-downtime migration approach.
MaximyzCloud provides end-to-end Azure deployment services — from initial Azure Landing Zone design and Terraform/Bicep IaC development through workload deployment, security configuration, CI/CD pipeline setup, and ongoing managed operations. Our Azure-certified engineers handle every technical aspect of the deployment while our project managers ensure programme milestones are met and stakeholders are informed throughout. Post-deployment, we offer Azure Managed Services covering monitoring, cost optimisation, security management, and continuous improvement as your Azure footprint grows.
