Start with an Assessment
Before migrating anything, understand what you have. An Azure migration assessment maps your on-premises workloads and identifies what's cloud-ready, what needs updating, and what should stay on-premises.
The 6 Rs of Cloud Migration
- Rehost — lift and shift as-is (fastest)
- Replatform — minor optimisations for cloud
- Repurchase — move to SaaS equivalent
- Refactor — re-architect for cloud-native
- Retire — decommission unused systems
- Retain — keep on-premises for now
Cost Considerations
Azure pricing is consumption-based. Use Azure Cost Management and the Azure Pricing Calculator to estimate costs before you commit. Syncrasoft can help you right-size your environment to avoid overspending.
