Active Directory
Account, login and group policy - Identities are planned together with permissions, and colleagues log in as usual after going to the cloud.
Azure Cloud Migration
Office servers to the cloud
Microsoft Azure
Azure cloud migrationOffice servers to the cloud
Customers will need to move their office servers - including Active Directory, file servers, and application servers - to Microsoft Azure to reduce hardware and software maintenance costs. We have dealt with many projects of the same kind.
Many SME offices host local servers: Active Directory, file servers, application servers. The machine needs to be replaced, the software needs to be patched, and the computer room is constantly being maintained. OP-Smooth handles too many projects to help customers move the servers they need in the office to Microsoft Azure - the goal is clear: reduce hardware and software maintenance costs, without affecting colleagues' daily login and archiving applications.
What we handle
Office servers, moving to Azure
More than a "cloud" slogan - align the AD, files, and application servers you really want to use, then move and re-authenticate.
File Server
Shared Folders are Migrated with Permissions - Moving them is the right thing to do, moving them improperly is the right thing to do.
Application Server
Office applications and related workloads - assess suitability for the cloud before moving as planned.
Reduce maintenance costs
Reduce the burden of local machine switching, machine room and software maintenance - hardware and software maintenance costs are viewed together.
Common scenarios
Local servers are getting more expensive, so you don't have to worry about moving
We have seen this kind of situation a lot - the pain point is often not "knowing whether to go to the cloud", but the cost of maintaining the same machine is getting more and more serious.
Aged, need to change the machine
Office AD, files, application servers have been in service for many years; once the replacement cycle is reached, hardware expenses are combined with the risk of downtime.
Maintain uninterrupted wires
System updates, patches, and backups of the same computer room environment - software and hardware maintenance costs have accumulated for a long time.
I want to reduce costs but I am afraid of affecting operations
The boss wants to ease the maintenance burden, but is worried about the relocation messing with login, file permissions, or applications - don't dare mess around.
Someone needs to have done something similar
I don't want to just listen to product sales. We have handled a number of Office Server Full Azure Migration projects, which are evaluated before moving.
Free Consulting - Align Edge Office Servers to Azure before Migrating and Authenticating
Billing Alerts
More than a fixed monthly/annual fee - with traffic billing
Many customers think that Azure is only a fixed monthly or annual fee; in fact, incoming and outgoing traffic (bandwidth) may also be charged separately.
How we approach
Before we go up to the clouds, we will align these first.
Focus on the experience of office server migration - clarify the scope, risks and acceptance first, and do not create a white product slogan.
Count office servers
AD, files, applications, and dependencies are listed first - the edges are suitable for clouds and hangouts; you will also see the habits of file upload/download, and whether it is cost-effective to align traffic billing.
Migration & Validation Program
Sequential, low-impact time, and move to verify that the login and file are available with the application, and make it clear in advance.
Identity, network, and permissions
Shangyun not only moves the machine - identity and network are planned together with permissions to reduce the impact of relocation days on colleagues.
Can be incorporated into day-to-day management
After the relocation, the same account management can be monitored and updated, which can be incorporated into the company's IT outsourcing for continuous follow-up.

FAQ
FAQ
Make sure all servers are in the cloud?
Not necessarily. Cost, risk and application decisions - these are suitable for Azure and hanging on-premises. Evaluate before deciding.
What office servers did you move to?
Several projects include customers moving the servers they need in the office to Microsoft Azure, including Active Directory, file servers, application servers, etc. The goal is to reduce hardware and software maintenance costs.
Do you want to raise your own machine after going up to the cloud?
The burden of switching local machines to the same computer room can be greatly reduced; cloud resources and accounts are still required. It can be included in the company's IT outsourcing continuous management.
Is it related to Microsoft 365?
Identity and collaboration go hand in hand; but Azure migration is the office server/workload layer, unlike Tenant migration.
Will the migration affect my coworkers' day-to-day lives?
Try to schedule low-impact times and verify logins, files, and apps beforehand - be clear when consulting for free.
Is Azure just a fixed monthly or annual fee?
No. Many customers think that there is only a fixed fee, but inbound and outbound traffic (bandwidth) may also be charged separately. If you frequently upload/download files in bulk, Azure may not be right for you - you can align your usage habits when consulting for free.
