Azure and Cloud Infrastructure

Modern, reliable infrastructure built on Microsoft Azure.

Move off ageing on-premises hardware and onto a platform that scales with the business. Planned properly, migrated carefully, and handed over with documentation.

The challenge

Ageing servers are holding the business back, and you already know it.

On-premises servers have a predictable lifecycle. They age, they get harder to support, and the cost of keeping them running climbs every year. Licences lapse. Hardware fails at the worst time. Patching falls behind. What was once solid infrastructure quietly turns into a liability, and the longer it runs the more disruptive the eventual move becomes.

Azure is the right answer for most organisations, but the questions that make people hesitate are fair ones. What will it actually cost. How much downtime. What happens to the data. Will the line of business application still work. Get those wrong and a migration becomes expensive and slow to put right.

Cost and risk climb steadily on ageing on-premises hardware. After migrating to Azure they level off.Cost and riskOn-premisesAzureMigration

Planned, migrated and handed over, not just lifted and shifted.

Datatechs designs Azure infrastructure that fits cleanly alongside your Microsoft 365 environment. We plan the migration, run the move, and hand over something stable, secure and sized correctly rather than something that merely works on the day.

How it works

Simple from the first conversation.

Discovery call

A free 30 minute call to understand what you are running today, what is causing the most pain, and what you want the end state to look like. No sales pitch, and no obligation.

Scope agreed

We set out exactly what the migration covers, what the end state looks like and what it will cost, including the expected Azure running cost. Agreed in writing before any work starts.

Delivery begins

We build, migrate and cut over, working around your business rather than through the middle of it. You deal with the engineer doing the work, and you get documentation at handover.

What is included

From legacy infrastructure to Azure, planned and handed over cleanly.

  • Azure environment design and architecture

  • Azure networking, storage and backup configuration
  • Integration with Microsoft 365 and Entra ID
  • Security configuration and access controls
  • Azure cost review and right-sizing
  • Disaster recovery and business continuity planning
  • Handover documentation and knowledge transfer
  • Embedded project management throughout
  • Fixed scope and fixed fee agreed before work starts
Who it is for

This service fits if any of these sound familiar.

You are still running on-premises servers and know you need to move.

The hardware is ageing, support contracts are running out, and staying put is getting more expensive every year. You want to move to Azure but you need someone to plan and run the migration properly.

You moved to Microsoft 365 but your infrastructure has not kept up.

Email and productivity are in the cloud, but the servers, file storage or line of business applications are still sitting in a cupboard somewhere. You want the whole thing working together.

You want better control of what your infrastructure costs.

Cloud gets expensive quickly when it is not sized properly. You want a straight review of what you are actually running and confidence that you are not paying for capacity nobody uses.

Pricing

Transparent pricing. No surprises.

Azure and infrastructure projects are scoped and quoted at a fixed price before work begins. We assess what you are running now, agree the scope of the migration or deployment, and give you a clear cost up front. Ongoing Azure management can be arranged separately once delivery is complete.

Tell us what you are running today and we will tell you honestly what moving would involve and roughly what it would cost. You will speak to an engineer, not an account manager.
