Everything you modernize runs on this
ERP, CRM, data, and AI all depend on infrastructure that is secure, resilient, and affordable. Microsoft has made the move easier: Azure Migrate now includes an AI migration agent, Azure Arc brings Azure management to on-premises and other clouds, and Microsoft’s security tools protect workloads and AI agents from code to runtime.
Velosio plans the move, runs it, and keeps it secure and cost-controlled afterward. These are the pressures that start most conversations:
| 1 | Insurance and audit pressure39% say a cybersecurity incident or insurance renewal would raise the urgency to modernize. |
| 2 | Key-person risk reaches the infrastructure60% depend significantly or critically on specific individuals to keep finance and operations running, and the systems those people manage. |
| 3 | AI agents arrive before governance57% say their governance does not fully address AI that acts autonomously. |
| 4 | Backups exist. Restores are untested.Unreliable, untested, or missing backup and recovery turns an incident into an outage. |
| 5 | Cloud spend nobody ownsWithout monthly reviews, right-sizing, and anomaly alerts, Azure costs drift. |

MICROSOFT CLOUD SOLUTIONS
Migrate. Manage. Secure. Recover.
From the first migration conversation to ongoing optimization, Velosio runs the whole Azure journey, including the servers and applications that support Dynamics.
Migrate and modernize
What it is now
Azure Migrate now includes the Azure Copilot migration agent to discover workloads, map dependencies, assess readiness, and estimate cost, with the Azure Accelerate program for guided migration. Azure Virtual Machines run Windows and Linux workloads, with savings of up to 72% versus pay-as-you-go through reserved instances (Microsoft figure).
How Velosio helps
Velosio assesses, plans, and executes migrations, and right-sizes and hosts workloads, including legacy Dynamics environments not yet ready to move to SaaS.
- VMware to Azure for clients facing Broadcom licensing changes
- Right-sized Azure Virtual Machines and Azure Virtual Desktop
- Serverless integrations and app modernization with Azure Functions
Manage hybrid and multicloud
What it is now
Azure Arc brings Azure security, governance, and management to on-premises servers, VMware, edge, and other clouds. Azure Monitor gives end-to-end visibility into the health and performance of resources across Azure, hybrid, and multicloud environments.
How Velosio helps
Velosio uses Arc to manage and secure hybrid environments from one place. We also set up monitoring, dashboards, and alerts so problems are caught before users notice.
- Azure Arc across on-premises, VMware, and other clouds
- Azure Monitor dashboards, alerting, and log analytics
- Azure controls applied without migrating first
Security and identity
What it is now
Microsoft Sentinel is a cloud-native SIEM, unified in the Microsoft Defender portal, with a built-in data lake and automated response. Defender for Cloud protects workloads “from code to runtime,” including AI workloads and agents. Microsoft Entra ID is the identity platform, and it now also issues identities to AI agents.
How Velosio helps
Velosio deploys and tunes Sentinel so its alerts are meaningful. We also assess and fix security weaknesses across Azure, and set up conditional access and identity governance for users, apps, and agents.
- Sentinel deployment, tuning, and automated response
- Defender for Cloud posture management
- Entra ID conditional access, MFA, and identity hardening
- Identities and least-privilege access for AI agents
Govern and comply
What it is now
Azure Policy enforces organizational standards and shows compliance across resources at scale. Microsoft Purview helps you discover, classify, and protect sensitive data, and supports governance and compliance across your data, including data that AI uses.
How Velosio helps
Velosio sets up guardrails before workloads move, then classifies sensitive data so security, compliance, and AI projects all work from the same rules.
- Policy baselines for tagging, regions, SKUs, and security settings
- Compliance reporting your auditors can review
- Data discovery, classification, and sensitivity labeling with Purview
- Governance for data that Copilot and agents can reach
Backup and recovery
What it is now
Azure Backup provides geo-redundant, immutable backups. Azure Site Recovery protects tier-1 workloads with documented recovery objectives.
How Velosio helps
Velosio designs backup and disaster recovery around business priority, then tests restores on a regular schedule, so you know recovery works instead of assuming it does.
- Immutable backups that hold up against ransomware
- Documented RTO and RPO by workload
- Regular restore and failover testing
Managed services and cost control
What it is now
Microsoft Cost Management tracks, allocates, and budgets Azure spend. Azure Advisor gives personalized recommendations for cost, security, reliability, performance, and operational excellence. Together they’re the basis for running Azure with spend discipline.
How Velosio helps
Velosio runs Azure so your team doesn’t have to, with Essentials, Standard, and Premium service tiers. Azure Cost Confidence adds monthly spend reviews, reservation modeling, and right-sizing.
- 24/7 monitoring, patching, alerting, and incident response
- Budgets, cost allocation, and anomaly alerts in Cost Management
- Advisor recommendations reviewed and acted on
- Reserved instance and savings plan modeling
2-3 weeks
Microsoft-funded for eligible organizations. A roadmap, a cost model, and a security review, without a commitment.

WHY VELOSIO
Built for business applications,
secured from day one
Velosio’s cloud team supports the same business applications we implement, so migrations and security are planned around how ERP, CRM, and data actually run.
Built for business applications
Infrastructure decisions made with your ERP, data, and AI roadmap in mind.
Security and cost from day one

Managed after migration
Ongoing monitoring, patching, and optimization, with a dedicated cloud concierge and quarterly Secure Score reviews. See Support.
Smaller teams can compress this into two weeks. Larger or regulated organizations typically run 45 to 60 days to allow for security review and department-specific enablement.
