Reduce compute spend with Azure landing zone

In today's competitive business environment, organizations are increasingly looking to optimize their IT infrastructure by migrating to the cloud. This use case demonstrates how Turing Cloud Services enables organizations to move from on-premise data centers to Azure, establishing a secure, cost-effective cloud foundation with reduced compute spend.

Turing case study: A large organization finds lower compute spend from new cloud foundation
Overview

Overview

Turing Cloud Services leverages its cloud foundation expertise to design and implement robust landing zones in Azure, facilitating the seamless migration of applications. By utilizing secure, multitenant virtual networks and advanced cloud-native services, we help organizations achieve significant cost savings and operational efficiency.

The challenge

Challenge

The primary challenge for organizations transitioning to the cloud is deploying systems with reduced compute costs compared to their existing on-premise infrastructure. Additionally, the migration process must be executed with minimal risk and downtime. Developing a strategic landing zone in Azure that ensures security, scalability, and cost-efficiency is crucial.

The solution

Solution

Turing Cloud Services addresses these challenges by designing a landing zone in Azure using a hub-and-spoke approach. This foundation enables the creation of secure, multitenant virtual networks that isolate services and ensure efficient resource utilization. Key aspects of our solution include:

1. Hub-and-Spoke architecture: Establishing a robust landing zone foundation for optimal resource management.

2. Multi-Tenant virtual networks: Isolating services within dedicated virtual networks to enhance security and performance.

3. Azure-Native IAM policies: Implementing role-based access control (RBAC) for secure access management.

4. Network security: Utilizing Palo Alto Networks and Azure firewalls alongside Microsoft Defender for comprehensive endpoint security.

5. Azure services integration: Leveraging Azure-native services for computing, encryption, storage, and backup to ensure seamless operations.

Key features and benefits include:

1. Reduced compute costs: Strategic deployment results in a 15% reduction in compute spend compared to traditional on-premise systems.
