Migrate and modernise

Refactor – minor changes, but application mostly unchanged

Rearchitect – modernise your application where required

Rebuild – build application to be “cloud native”

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

Replace physical hardware with

virtualised components
The difficult operational work… virtualised
IaaS doesn’t mean no innovation though!

Reliably deploy and update at large scale

Scale automatically using Azure Monitor metrics

Simplify networking

Support hyperscale workloads
