What the CAF

Module 04 - ALZ Accelerator Hackathon

Overview

Successful cloud adoption is built on the strong foundations of the Cloud Adoption Framework Ready methodology. But what the hack is an Azure landing zone?

Simply put, a landing zone is a multi-subscription Azure environment for hosting workloads, pre-provisioned through code. Out-of-the-box it accounts for scale, security, governance, networking, and identity. It enables application migration, modernization, and innovation at enterprise-scale for all customers irrespective of size in Azure. This approach considers all platform resources that are required to support the customer's application portfolio and doesn't differentiate between infrastructure as a service or platform as a service.
