Azure migration by BUI

Move to Azure with a plan, not a leap.

A rushed lift-and-shift creates the problems you'll spend years fixing. As a Microsoft Azure Expert MSP, we land you on a secure, well-governed foundation and run the programme end to end, and many migrations qualify for Microsoft Azure Accelerate funding.

Why it matters Our approach What's included Azure Accelerate Outcomes

The cloud you rush into is the one you regret

Migration isn't just moving servers. Get the foundation wrong, no landing zone, flat networks, no cost or identity controls, and you inherit every legacy problem plus a bill that climbs on its own.

We treat migration as a programme with an outcome: assess the estate, design the target, move in waves, and hand you an environment that's secure, governed and ready to build on.

Assess, land, migrate and modernise

The Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework, run by an Azure Expert MSP that has done it hundreds of times, so nothing moves before it's ready to.

01
Assess

We discover and map your estate, dependencies, readiness and business case, so you know what moves, what changes and what it costs before anything happens.

02
Land

We build an enterprise-scale landing zone, identity, networking, security and governance done right, so every workload arrives on solid ground.

03
Migrate

We move in planned waves with rollback at every step, rehosting, replatforming or refactoring each workload to fit its target, with the business online throughout.

04
Modernise

Once you're in, we optimise cost, tighten security and modernise where it pays, from managed databases to containers, so the estate keeps improving.

The full programme

Discover
Estate assessment

Automated discovery of servers, apps and dependencies, with readiness scoring and a costed business case for the move.

Design
Landing zone architecture

An enterprise-scale landing zone with identity, network topology, security baselines and governance guardrails built in.

Move
Wave-based migration

Workloads moved in planned waves with testing, cutover runbooks and rollback, keeping downtime and risk to a minimum.

Secure
Security & identity

Entra ID, Defender for Cloud and Zero Trust controls baked in from day one, not bolted on after the fact.

Modernise
App & data modernisation

Replatform databases to Azure SQL, containerise apps and adopt PaaS where it cuts cost and management overhead.

Operate
Managed handover

Governance, cost controls and optional ongoing management, so the environment stays healthy long after go-live.

Microsoft Azure Accelerate

Your migration could be partly funded by Microsoft.

Through Azure Accelerate, Microsoft funds eligible migration and modernisation projects, from assessments and landing-zone design to the migration itself, delivered by an accredited partner like BUI.

Funding depends on your workloads, licensing and the scope of the move. The fastest way to find out is a short eligibility check, and we handle the Microsoft paperwork for you.
