Azure cloud engineering

Azure

We assess and improve existing Azure estates across networking, private connectivity, identity, security, observability, landing zones, Terraform, and delivery controls.

Work with 536 Technologies from the live platform through handoff.

Where platform work gets stuck

The platform works. Changing it is the problem.

  • Azure responsibilities cross team boundaries

    Networking, identity, security, and monitoring sit across separate teams. Platform changes wait while ownership and dependencies remain unclear.

  • Azure changes bypass the delivery path

    Platform changes happen through the portal, scripts, and separate repositories. Review, validation, and release controls vary by resource and team.

  • The platform boundary is unclear

    Landing zone, workspace, and shared service responsibilities overlap. Teams cannot tell which configuration belongs in Terraform or who owns the next change.

How we work

Put the right platform changes on a path your team can own.

We document the decisions, ownership, and controls your team needs to operate the platform.

  1. 01

    Live foundation

    Inventory the Azure resources, dependencies, and controls as they run today.

  2. 02

    Ownership and guardrails

    Define the platform, landing zone, and Terraform boundaries. Assign review and approval ownership for each change.

  3. 03

    Automation and release

    Import the resources that belong in Terraform, validate changes, and release them through controlled CI/CD paths.

  4. 04

    Team enablement

    Give the teams clear standards, runbooks, and request paths for the Azure foundation.

What your team keeps

Leave your team a platform they can own.

We work in the live delivery flow and leave a path the platform team can run.

  • A current map of the Azure resources, dependencies, ownership, and controls.
  • Clear ownership across the Azure foundation, landing zones, and workload platforms.
  • Reviewable changes for networking, identity, security, and shared platform resources.
  • A governed Azure foundation that supports reliable platform operations.

Common questions

Before we start.

How does this support Databricks?

Production Databricks can depend on Azure networking, identity, security, monitoring, and delivery controls. This service can address those dependencies, but it applies to the broader Azure estate.

Are Azure Landing Zones still part of the service?

Yes. Landing zone design and remediation are one capability. The service also covers networking, identity, security, observability, and delivery controls across the broader Azure estate.

Do you replace the existing Azure estate?

No. The work starts from the running estate. We improve it in reviewable steps and preserve the controls that already fit.

Does everything have to move into Terraform?

No. We codify configuration when version control and review improve the operating model. Native Azure controls remain where they are the better fit.

A scoped way to begin

Azure Foundation Assessment

Review the live Azure estate across networking, identity, security, governance, observability, and delivery controls. Turn the findings into a prioritized implementation plan.
