A 120-user distributor migrated core infrastructure to Microsoft Azure with RE2 Tech planning and execution. On time, on budget, no drama.
Read the Full StoryTalk to UsA midsize distributor was running core infrastructure on aging servers in a small on-premises room. The server warranty was expiring. The physical room was running out of cooling. Management wanted to move to cloud but was nervous about cost, performance, and complexity. The in-house IT team of two did not have cloud experience.
We spent the first three weeks on discovery: inventorying every workload, measuring resource usage, testing network performance to Azure regions, and sizing infrastructure based on real data instead of guesses. We built a detailed migration plan that sequenced the move by dependency, starting with the lowest-risk workloads and ending with the ERP.
Execution took six weeks. Each workload migrated on a planned weekend with the client team in the loop. Rollback procedures were rehearsed before every cutover. The ERP migration was the most carefully planned step with a full test run in a staging environment before production cutover.
The migration finished on the original timeline. Post-cutover performance matched or beat the old on-premises environment for every workload. Monthly Azure spend came in under the original estimate because we sized correctly instead of over-provisioning. The in-house IT team was trained on ongoing Azure operations and the client moved to our Pro retainer for continued management.
