Azure Consulting Services

Azure Reservations and Savings Plans

Microsoft offers Azure Reservations and Savings Plans, which provide significantly discounted rates for one-year or three-year resource commitments. This can further reduce your costs by up to 65%! Your AdaptivEdge consultant can help you evaluate these savings based on your application lifecycles and other technical, operational, and financial factors. Since we know Microsoft’s plans and products, we can help you find the option that delivers the best ROI for your organization.

Azure Autoscale

With Azure’s Autoscale, you can easily scale your applications and resources based on demand, meaning you only need to pay for the resources you use. This can be particularly beneficial if you’re handling varying workloads, ensuring that resources are available when you need them — no over-provisioning or incurring unnecessary costs. We’ll work with you to determine your best starting point and make a plan for scaling up or down as needed.

Azure Security Center & Microsoft Defender

Azure Security Center gives full visibility and control of your cloud security state with a single unified view. The built-in security center continuously monitors and assesses your workload security, helping you better protect services, applications, databases, and servers. This includes automatic security patching and compliance offerings — ideal for highly regulated industries. With robust capabilities to prevent attacks, Security Center can quickly detect and respond to threats with advanced analytics and Microsoft Intelligent Security Graph.

Microsoft Defender for Cloud further enhances Azure security, helping you detect, prevent, and respond to malicious threats thanks to increased visibility. It provides integrated security monitoring and policy management across your Azure subscription. Your AdaptivEdge consultant will help you get familiar with both these security tools to ensure your data has top-notch protection.

Microsoft Sentinel

In addition to Security Center, your Azure instance can also benefit from the protection of Microsoft Sentinel, a cloud-native SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) and SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) solution offered within the Azure platform that was recently named a leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM). Your consultant at AdaptivEdge can help you deploy Sentinel for comprehensive threat detection and response across on-premises and multi-cloud environments.
