Azure VMware Assessment
Modernise your VMware workloads with the speed and scale of Azure. The Azure VMware Solution Assessment is a strategic deep dive into your on-premises VMware environment to determine the most efficient path to the cloud. By running native VMware Cloud Foundation on bare-metal Azure infrastructure, AVS allows you to migrate without the risk, cost, or time required for application refactoring.
Using automated discovery tools like Azure Migrate, this assessment analyses your vSphere-based virtual machines, networking configurations, and storage requirements. It provides a detailed report on AVS readiness, precise node-count requirements (Sizing), and a comprehensive cost analysis. This ensures a seamless “lift-and-shift” that preserves your existing VMware tools, skills, and operational workflows while unlocking Azure’s native security and management services.
The Innoligo Differentiator: Why Our Free Assessment is Different
While many providers offer basic automated scans, Innoligo transforms raw data into a bespoke business strategy. We offer this assessment for free to provide immediate value and build a long-term partnership based on technical excellence.
What sets the Innoligo Free Assessment apart:
Financial Precision & “Right-Sizing”: Standard assessments often over-estimate hardware needs. Innoligo experts apply Performance Percentile Analysis to your actual usage data, often reducing the required AVS node count by 15–25%, significantly lowering your monthly TCO.
Broadcom/VMware Licensing Strategy: In the wake of recent licensing changes, we provide a “Licensing Bridge” analysis. We help you understand how to leverage your existing VMware investments while taking advantage of Azure Hybrid Benefit and free Extended Security Updates (ESU).
Dependency Mapping & Risk Mitigation: We go beyond the VM to map complex application dependencies. Our team identifies potential latency issues or networking bottlenecks before the migration starts, ensuring near-zero downtime for critical business services.
Hybrid Cloud Architecture Design: We don’t just assess “how many nodes.” We design your future state, showing exactly how AVS will integrate with your existing Azure landing zone, Microsoft Entra ID, and Azure Backup/DR solutions.
