Executive Summary
The district’s current Microsoft Licensing agreement allows consultant work to be done free of charge. As the district prepares becomes more established in the public cloud space, we would like to have our existing data center assessed and some preliminary figures for future planning provided.
The district would work with Microsoft, and Airnet, to provide an assessment using Airnet’s ASAT Assessment tool. This tool will do a complete inventory of our internal systems and will provide a detailed cost analysis for our systems cost, both on premises and in Azure. It will provide an Executive Summary of our environment, a flat excel spreadsheet itemizing each one of our servers as it’s associated on premise and Azure cost. This information will be used for cost comparisons, consumption planning and to create a roadmap budget for a move to Azure.
In the short term, this work will lay the groundwork for moving offsite backups to the Azure Cloud.
