HSIT over cloud. Migrazione dell'infrastruttura HSIT su cloud Microsoft Azure

Abstract

Current Hai sentito il terremoto?, below HSIT1, informatic infrastructure is stable and optimized over the years to be able to withstand an increasing load of users but is based on obsolete devices and is very hard to update, due to bureaucratic reasons, because the buy procedure takes a long time, and due to technical reason, because there is a lack of dedicated technical specialist, in addition to the initial installation and configuration, that can constantly monitor the entire system. Furthermore, if more resources are needed onthefly, there are no IT devices capable of dynamically adapting to the needs of the moment. So we decide to migrate the entire informatic infrastructure over cloud platform, because the service is costanlty updated and manteined, permit to scale2, manually or automatically, the device numbers based on realtime need, and the last but not the least during software issue (opeating system update failed, bug in web application, etc.) is always possible rollback to a previous working status, simply restoring a previuos snapshot3. This document describes the IT architecture built on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform and the procedure for replicating the entire system.
