Azure Architecture Assessment - 2-day workshop

Agenda

**Day 1. Infrastructure / Platform Our team meets with your team to better learn your company, its existing solutions and architecture, new challenges, services, applications, requirements, and other information.

**Day 2. Services / Applications * Requirements gathering for services and databases which are required for current workloads * Effort estimation needed for integration with external services * Effort estimation needed to build a broker and automate service deployment * Analyze the application portfolio and triage applications according to their business value * Assess portability of the applications that need to be migrated in the first place * Estimate the time and effort required to re-platform the applications
