Azure Classroom Series – 29/June/2021

Scenario: Journey To Cloud

• Organization: Learning Thoughts (LT)

• Applications: LT has various applications and the major applications asre

  • lt-ecommerce
  • lt-ehealth
  • lt-einsure

• Infrastructure:

• Applications:

  • LT uses the following Hypervisors
    • Microsoft HyperV to Create Virtual Machines
    • VMWare to create Virtual Machines
  • The Application architectures are as shown below
  • The other application architectures are more or less the same

• Organization Initiative:

  • LT wants to use Azure cloud for hosting the applications
  • LT wants to cut down on costs.

• How can organizations with similar goals move to cloud:

  • Cloud Migration:
    • Ensure whatever was working in your datacenter (on-premises) try to run them on the cloud in the same way
    • We need to do the Server Migration from VMWare/Hyperv to Azure
    • Benefits:
      • This is fastest way to get into the cloud.
      • The immediated money saving is a huge benefit
    • Drawbacks:
      • Just because cloud providers offer VMs and hosted services that doesn’t mean you should treat them to same as buying a server.
      • With migration, we bring the same complex licensing , same set of problems on-premises to cloud
  • Cloud Native Applications:
    • Redesign/make necessary changes in the code of the application to use the azure features/platforms
    • Benefits:
      • One of the biggest advantages of Cloud Native Application developement is we can focus on our application (business requirements) features
      • We get scaling, high available and fault tolerance configured into application.
    • Drawback:
      • This takes lot of time and effort for the existing applications because we need to replatform.
