Building a Secure and Scalable Cloud Environment

As cloud adoption becomes increasingly essential for organizations, managing a cloud environment can be challenging and costly, particularly without the necessary expertise. Microsoft offers the building blocks to build and provide a Landing Zone, providing a secure, scalable and cost-effective solution for managing your Azure environment. 

Landing Zones are a critical component of a cloud environment, providing a framework to govern your cloud operations, including security, compliance, and resource management. At Codit, we follow best practices defined by Microsoft’s Cloud Adoption Framework and incorporate the Enterprise-Scale architecture Landing Zone to provide a flexible and future-proof foundation for your cloud operations. 

To leverage the benefits of Landing Zones for Azure Cloud Management, it’s crucial to follow some best practices when setting up your Azure Landing Zone. These practices include:

Begin by creating a root management group for your organization to manage your Azure environment effectively. Consider separating Platform and Application Landing Zones to improve manageability. Ensure scalability and adaptability by allowing for future growth and accommodating unknown factors. Improve resource isolation and management by splitting environments into separate subscriptions. To streamline management, create a management group to hold new subscriptions. Prioritize application-centric migrations and development to meet your organization’s needs. 

By implementing these best practices, you can effectively build a cloud environment that meets your business needs. This will help optimize your cloud operations, improve productivity, and ensure regulatory compliance.
