Infrastructure in Azure

At Bridgeall, we help you move your core infrastructure to Azure at a pace that suits your business. Azure provides on-demand, scalable, and flexible computing resources, ready to support your evolving needs.

By taking a phased, lift-and-shift approach, we guide you in migrating on-premises infrastructure and workloads to the cloud step by step. This ensures your existing applications, integrations, customizations, and workflows continue to operate seamlessly, while you begin to benefit from the agility, scalability, and efficiency of the cloud.

Virtual Machines

With Azure Virtual Machines, you can create and use VMs in the cloud. VMs provide infrastructure as a service (IaaS) in the form of a virtualised server and can be used in many ways. Just like a physical computer, you can customise the software running on the VM.

Azure Reserved Instances

Azure Reserved Instances are an Azure pricing plan that can help you reduce cloud costs. It offers discounts in return to a commitment to use Azure offerings for a duration of one or three years. Azure Reservations are ideal for workloads with consistent resource usage.

Azure SQL

Azure SQL Database is a fully managed platform-as-a-service (PaaS) database engine that provides a simple, reliable, and scalable way to host SQL databases. It offers built-in security, automated backups, high availability, and performance optimization, enabling businesses to focus on innovation rather than database management and maintenance.

Azure Virtual Desktop

For many organisations, remote work is the new normal. With Azure Virtual Desktop, (previously Windows Virtual Desktop) you can ensure your team can connect back to crucial data-center applications no matter where they’re working, on any device. Azure Virtual Desktop is a comprehensive desktop and app virtualisation service running in the cloud.

Azure Apps

Quickly build, deploy and scale enterprise-grade web, mobile and API apps running on any platform with Azure. Meet rigorous performance, scalability, security and compliance requirements. You can deploy apps to Virtual Machines or Azure SQL but there are now PaaS services available that make it much easier to deploy apps.

Azure Frequently Asked Questions

Microsoft Azure is a growing selection of cloud services that assist your organisation in meeting and overcoming your business challenges. Azure provides your organisation with flexibility and freedom to build, manage, monitor and deploy applications on a huge scale, using the tools and frameworks you know and love.

Everything sent within the Azure environment is automatically encrypted. The Azure network has automatic detection to prevent distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, similar to some of the largest services on the internet. Microsoft spends more than $1bn a year in cyber security improvements across its cloud platforms and users of Azure benefit from this every day.

All Azure services can be secured with Azure Active Directory and Multi Factor Authentication.

Azure pricing is mostly based on the compute or storage used over a period of time, normally by minute. The cost varies on the performance requirements and time required. There is a range of pricing calculators available here. Get in touch to find out more.

Starting with Azure could not be easier. Having a good strategy, identifying key services and prioritising your plans will set you up for success. If you need some more information on moving to the cloud, our cloud migration guide details more about how to plan a cloud migration, the steps you can take to prepare and the Microsoft technology you can use to meet your needs.

Microsoft offers a range of tools and services such as Azure Migrate, to help you get your data in the right format and into Azure. At Bridgeall we help organisations understand the potential benefits of moving to the cloud, develop a plan for moving and then carry out the cloud migration in partnership with the business users.
