Onboarding a Historical Company on the Cloud Journey
summary
Migration of a large French public company to Azure focuses on concrete wins: an initial VPN failure is fixed, Palo Alto virtual appliances get integrated after vendor collaboration, and a small dedicated team automates environments so provisioning drops from months to reduced provisioning time from months to one week and sometimes days. The team builds a lightweight governance and a platform for innovation using ARM templates and Packer, Azure DevOps (moving to GitHub Actions), containers and CI/CD, and it succeeds in productionizing many projects.
