HCS will transport you to the Microsoft Azure cloud

Our specialised knowledge makes cloud migration a secure and seamless experience that will bring significant benefits to your business.

With the sheer scale, and often sensitivity, of the data you rely on to run your operations effectively, purchasing and maintaining your own servers is just not a practical or secure option.

The Microsoft Azure cloud computing platform provides the scalable, secure solution you are looking for, able to integrate with your existing systems and processes. But the vastness of the platform means it is not without its challenges, requiring specialised skills and raising questions around compatibility and cost control.

HCS has over 30 years of experience as a Microsoft solutions partner. Our team of certified Microsoft experts will help you to transition to the Azure cloud in a way that is seamless, secure and stress-free.

Our experts will identify the workloads most suitable for migration, as well as the most economically advantageous configurations. Before initiating Azure migration we will:

• Review your existing systems and configurations
• Identify any out-of-support operating systems, databases or applications
• Examine latency between cloud and on‑prem systems
• Design secure VPN/ExpressRoute connections and landing zones
• Re‑architect flat on‑prem networks into segmented cloud networks
• Manage hybrid DNS
• Analyse low transfer speeds or bandwidth bottlenecks
• Determine data consistency and downtime requirements
• Evaluate re‑mapping permissions and access controls
• Devise migration strategies for structured vs unstructured data
 (SQL vs files)
