Migrate to Azure
Migration methodology for ISV and SaaS creators
We’ve developed a specific methodology for Software and SaaS creators to migrate applications from on-premises or other cloud environments to Azure. Designed to minimise risk and maximise value, it’s divided into four phases:

Discover & Assess
Parallo Azure Solution Architects will conduct a high level discovery and assessment workshop to understand what you have, how you use it, what can migrate, and what can modernise on the way or once there.

Design & Plan
We drill down into the details to produce an Azure Application Framework specifically for your app(s). The App Framework (developed against the Azure Scaffold) details what components to use and how to setup Azure to ensure your App is secure and performs well.
Costs will be optimised, and you can rest assured that your Azure instance will be set up according to Microsoft best practices.

Migrate & Modernise
Parallo will execute the Migration plan; create the appropriate Azure environments, build the deployment pipelines, and deploy your app to Azure using automated deployment methods.
After the shift, we transform selected candidates to utilise Azure PaaS features where possible and timely. Additional candidates may be transformed once in Azure.

Monitor & Manage
We configure Log Analytics, App insights, Security Centre and other alerting and monitoring to ensure that your App is secure, available, performant and cost appropriate. Once set up, we handover monitoring and management to your team, or provide 24×7 services ongoing.
The Parallo Automation Library is a separately licensed application that automates the management, monitoring, automated corrective actions, waste detection and cost management of Apps on Azure. This can be deployed on request.
