Case Study 4 - CloudPoralHub
CloudPoralHub currently has a set of services that they host in their on-premises data center. They
want to migrate their workloads onto Azure. They currently have the following infrastructure in their
on-premises data center
A Windows Server 2016 machine that hosts BizTalk Server 2016. This machine runs the
following workflows
o Ocean Transport - This gathers information about containers that arrives at various
shipping ports.
o Inland Transport - This gathers information about various inland operations.
The virtual machine supports the following REST API’s
o Container API – This provides container information about the containers such as
the weight and contents of the container
o Location API – This gives information on the location of the shipping ports
o Shipping API – This gives shipping information that can be used on a shipping web
site
Currently all of the data resides in a Mongo DB database.
The shipping web site is available via http://cloudportalhub.com
The company is planning for the following solution to migrate onto Azure
The virtual machine will be migrated onto an Azure virtual machine using Azure Site
Recovery
It must support industry-standard protocol X12 message formats for various messages
It must be able to secure resources to the corporate VNet and use dedicated storage
resources with a fixed costing model.
All on-premises connectivity must be maintained to support legacy applications
The shipping Azure function app must implement secure endpoints by using app-level security and
include Azure Active Directory
The REST API’s must meet the following requirements
The shipping data must be migrated to Azure with minimum costs and downtime.
The following issues are encountered when the resources have been migrated to Azure
The Azure virtual machine is showing high network latency, jitter and high CPU utilization.
The VM is critical and has not been backed up in the past
The VM must enable a quick restore from a 7-day snapshot and also include the option of a
local restore of disks in case of failure
