Step-by-step Cloud Evolution with Microsoft Azure

IT transformation is more than a one-time migration of applications to the cloud, it's an ongoing process of adapting your application's architecture to best take advantage of new and rapidly evolving services and features being released by providers like Microsoft® Azure® and AWS.
In this ebook, we illustrate this iterative process of cloud adoption by following the IT transformation journey of a fictitious company, Mercurial Footwear, as it first adopts Microsoft Azure Infrastructure-as-a-Service and then gradually evolves its architecture to better take advantage of the Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) features most relevant to its business needs. The various stages of this transformation — from a simple lift-and-shift to the cloud to leveraging cutting-edge technologies like containers and serverless computing — are typical of the transformation process that we help our customers navigate at Rackspace.
