FAQ

Azure Questions, Answered

Yes. As a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP), we bill your Azure consumption in INR with GST-compliant invoices, consolidate reservations and licenses on a single PO, and provide first-line support before anything reaches Microsoft.
A small workload (10-20 VMs) typically completes in 4-6 weeks including assessment, landing zone build, replication and cutover. Mid-size estates (50-150 VMs with databases) usually run 3-4 months in waves so business operations stay unaffected.
When you simply lift & shift everything 1:1, Azure can look more expensive. Real savings come from right-sizing, auto-shutdown of dev/test, Reserved Instances / Savings Plans, and refactoring to PaaS. We deliver a TCO model upfront so there are no surprises - most of our customers see 30-45% lower 3-year TCO after optimization.
Every landing zone ships with Microsoft Defender for Cloud, Microsoft Sentinel SIEM, Azure Policy guardrails, Key Vault with HSM-backed keys, Private Endpoints, MFA + Conditional Access, and audit logging to a hardened Log Analytics workspace. We map controls to ISO 27001, SOC 2, RBI / SEBI / HIPAA depending on your industry.
Absolutely. We deploy ExpressRoute or site-to-site VPN, extend identity with Microsoft Entra Connect, manage on-prem servers from Azure Arc, and use Azure Stack HCI where data must stay local. One control plane across cloud and edge.
Proactive monitoring of VMs, app services, databases and backups; OS & patch management; alert triage and incident response under defined SLAs; monthly FinOps and security reports; quarterly architecture reviews; and a named Technical Account Manager as your single point of contact.
