Microsoft Azure Services
With Microsoft Azure landing zone, the time taken for migration to the cloud can be drastically reduced. Having a cloud blueprint not only accelerate time to the cloud but also yields considerable cost savings. With the right landing zone, enterprises can benefit from shorter time-to-market for new applications. Scalability is also a major factor related to landing zones. As it becomes easier to carry out extensions to new environments with landing zones, the standard profiles can be easily applied to new users.

Compliance plays a very important role in the landing zone which means that the developers and engineers can work within the landing zone environment by adhering to the compliance rules. With landing zones, the enterprises will not be spending a lot of time when it comes to implementing any rules within their public cloud infrastructure. The landing zones also support enterprises in keeping the virtual environment up to date in an ongoing and uniform manner.
The landing zones provide a high degree of standardization. As the landing zones are API driven, the implementation of new applications becomes easier and flexible. The flexibility helps in reducing time, when the landing zone environment is scaled up or down.
Usually, with cloud, enterprises tend to lose control of their expenses. However, with the right landing zones framework, enterprises are free to create and develop new initiatives without causing any unnecessary or unexpected costs. The landing zones help make the process transparent by ensuring every account/ subscription is visible.

What is a Landing Zone?
A landing zone is a key component of your overall cloud adoption strategy and is comprised of building blocks that cover foundational elements of cloud deployments. These building blocks might include governance, data security, network design and logging as well as multi-account architecture and identity/access management. They're configured in line with the broader organisational strategy and industry regulations, enforcing best practices for any workload deployed to the cloud.
Critical hygiene factors, like security and compliance, are baked in so developers can focus more time and energy on tasks that deliver value. They can also be given greater autonomy to explore the full potential of the cloud when these foundations are in place. Meanwhile, the overall risk is reduced because landing zones provide guardrails to prevent the environment from becoming an unwieldy, invisible and expensive entity that is difficult to control.
How we deploy Landing Zones
Deployment options
The first and foremost aspect to consider is the deployment options. With every deployment or implementation option, different methods are used to align with the operating model of the enterprise. Usually, user-interface based options and scripting-based methods, along with direct deployments from GitHub are available.
Identify
The identity and access across the cloud platform can be established with best practice guidance and enabling capabilities Azure Active Directory, Azure role-based access control (RBAC), and Azure Policy. It is the best practices, decision guides and references in the Azure landing zones that will help in developing the right foundation with a safe and compliant approach.
Resource organization
Organization of resources builds strong governance. Operating model preferences are reflected by naming and tagging of standards, management group hierarchy, and segmentation of resources (subscription design). To begin with all these aspects of resource organization, landing zones offer guidance.
Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery (BCDR)
For any enterprise, it is essential to ensure business continuity, reliability and rapid recovery. The design areas which are within the landing zones help enterprises to set up virtual destination environments with high degrees of protection and faster recovery options.
