Microsoft Azure Cloud Services and Solutions

We describe ourselves accurately: Hanoi Technology is an independent engineering company that works with and builds on Microsoft Azure. We do not claim a partner tier or badge. What we offer is hands-on experience with Azure services, adherence to Microsoft’s published frameworks such as the Cloud Adoption Framework and Well-Architected Framework, and delivery evidence from more than 50 software projects. If your procurement process requires a specific Microsoft partner designation, tell us early and we will discuss how to structure the engagement.

Start with an assessment rather than a rebuild. We review your management group structure, subscriptions, policies, identity setup, network topology, Defender for Cloud recommendations and the last few months of cost data. The output is a prioritized list of fixes and opportunities, each with effort and impact. Many clients then address landing zone and identity gaps first, because every later migration, data or AI project depends on them.

It depends on scope. An assessment usually takes two to four weeks. A landing zone build is often four to eight weeks, depending on how many policies, networks and integrations are involved. Migrations and data platform modernization run in waves over several months. We agree milestones at the start, share a written update every week and demo working results every sprint, so timelines stay visible.

The main drivers are the number of workloads or data sources in scope, the complexity of networking and identity integration, compliance requirements, and how much testing and parallel running is needed. Separately, your Azure consumption depends on architecture choices, which is why we model run costs during design using the Azure Pricing Calculator and Azure Migrate business case data, and highlight options such as reservations and Azure Hybrid Benefit.

Yes. We deliver landing zones, policies, networking and most platform resources as Bicep or Terraform, depending on your preference and existing skills, with pipelines in GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps. This makes environments reproducible, changes reviewable through pull requests, and drift visible. You own the repositories, and we document modules so your team can extend them after handover.

Yes. You can take over with full documentation and knowledge transfer, add our engineers to your team as a dedicated team, or engage us for managed services covering monitoring, patching, backup checks, security recommendations and monthly cost reviews. We overlap working hours with your time zone for operational communication and agree on escalation paths in advance.
