Typical application scenarios
Cloud solutions often develop their added value precisely when they are applied to specific IT challenges, and this is precisely where Azure comes in. The platform offers tried-and-tested approaches for a wide range of initial situations: from the rapid migration existing systems up to the step-by-step Modernisation of applications or databases.
The ability to proceed flexibly and in line with requirements is particularly attractive. Existing infrastructures can be gradually transferred to the cloud, without disrupting ongoing operations. At the same time, Azure opens up ways to easily integrate new technologies such as container platforms or hybrid models into existing IT environments.
The following examples show typical scenarios in which Azure helps companies to work more efficiently and sustainably:
App modernisation
with Azure App Services or Kubernetes
Lift & Shift
Simply move existing servers to the cloud
Database migration
to Azure SQL or Cosmos DB
Networks
Cloud networking, VPNs,
ExpressRoute
