Challenge
With growth of its business, this ISV was concerned about the risk presented by their on-premises databases and lack of disaster recovery processes. Assuming that upgrading the on-premises infrastructure wouldn't eliminate these problems, they were considering a lift and shift cloud migration.
Solution
A UnifyCloud partner used the CloudAtlas platform securely scan and analyze the company's 3 applications and 1,600 databases at the code and schema level. Using a custom SQL script within CloudAtlas, they collected all SQL data for the databases while adhering to the company's strict security requirements. Using this secure discovery data, the a CloudAtlas assessment and cost analysis was conducted to provide detailed insights into the different IaaS and PaaS Azure services available.
