Monolithic Mainframe to Azure Gov Cloud: The USAF Journey

Over the years, government agencies have invested in mainframe and midrange technologies for mission-critical applications, including applications that provide vital services to citizens. With advances in technology and changing economic models, transitioning to cloud services is a compelling value proposition, providing government agencies with advantages in cost, flexibility, and application maintenance and development– but where do you get started?

Join our complimentary webinar to learn about a recent example where together the Microsoft Azure Global Engineering and Customer Success Unit teams facilitated the migration of a mission-critical system running on a Unisys Dorado OS2200 Mainframe into Azure.*

During this webinar, you will: 

• Hear from the customer team on their perspectives, business rationale, and value proposition of migrating a mainframe to Azure
• Learn about the challenges overcome and best practices established from such a large and complex migration
• Discover capabilities unlocked in moving from a legacy monolith to a refactored Azure cloud architecture
• Hear a brief technical discussion on the migration process and target-state architecture in Azure

*The architecture in this use case consists of Astadia and Micro Focus components running on Azure Virtual Machines (VMs), Azure Blob Storage, Azure Data Factory and Azure SQL Database (business critical).
