The assessment consists of analyzing your organization’s type and level of use of the Microsoft Azure platform.

Objectives:

  • Understand the current level of cloud adoption and maturity in your organization.
  • Set current or required levels of expectations and governance objectives.

PHASE 1: Training

  • Skills Workshops: aimed at developing the necessary skills for Azure governance and control.
  • Technology/product workshops: focused on developing skills to control the systems and products required for good governance.

Objectives:

  • Ensure proper training and education of your organization in a series of workshops, taking into account its maturity level and the objectives identified/established in the previous phase.
  • Obtain skills and best practices for Azure (roles, Way of Working, etc.).
  • Learn about the Azure services and products required for good governance.
e

PHASE 2: Governance Plan Development

In this phase, the organization makes decisions related to the Azure Governance disciplines defined by Microsoft:

  • Business Risks:
    Document evolving business risks and your company’s business risk tolerance based on the classification of critical data and applications.
  • Policy and Compliance:
    Turn risk decisions into policy statements to establish cloud adoption boundaries.
  • Processes:
    Establish processes to monitor non-compliance with corporate policies.

PHASE 3: Implementation

Once the governance plan is completed and delivered, ENCAMINA may implement the identified actions and initiatives and manage the governance of Azure resources and services. To carry out the latter service the scope and management modality will be agreed upon completion of the project.
