The Challenge

Navigating Complex Cloud Migration & Latency

A major institution faced significant challenges with its existing cloud infrastructure:

A complex OCI environment (Production with DR, multiple non-production databases, application servers) requiring careful planning for migration.

Persistent latency issues in their previous on-premises environment (VM Horizon) impacting application performance and user experience.

Heavy manual intervention for database management, resource provisioning, and disaster recovery, leading to increased operational overhead.

Our Solution

Automated, Performance-Driven Cloud Migration

Excelencia executed a meticulous migration strategy, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum benefit:

Successful Migration

The entire OCI environment was successfully migrated to Azure within 3 months, ensuring minimal downtime and a smooth transition.

Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD)

Implemented AVD in place of VM Horizon, effectively resolving latency issues and significantly improving performance.

Automated Database Management

• Spinning up Azure resources.
• Streamlined Disaster Recovery (DR) processes for faster, more reliable recovery.
• Automated Development database refreshes, ensuring up-to-date data for developers.

The Impact

Enhanced Performance, Efficiency & Business Continuity

The migration delivered substantial improvements across the board, setting the institution up for future growth:

Reduced Manual Effort

Achieved through automation, improving operational efficiency and minimizing human errors.

Faster & More Reliable DR

Robust disaster recovery processes ensured business continuity.

Streamlined Development

Automated database refreshes allowed developers to work with up-to-date data efficiently.

Enhanced Performance & User Experience

Significantly improved by resolving latency issues through AVD implementation.

Improved Scalability & Flexibility

The new Azure environment provided the foundation for future growth and operational demands.
