Common questions

Azure managed services -- FAQs

Do you manage Microsoft Azure for Canadian businesses?

Yes. We manage Azure infrastructure, Microsoft 365, Azure security services, and the full Azure ecosystem for Canadian enterprises. We have direct experience with Canadian data residency requirements and the compliance frameworks that regulated industries face.

What Azure regions do you use for Canadian data residency?

We deploy workloads requiring Canadian data residency to Azure Canada Central (Toronto) and Azure Canada East (Quebec City). For organizations with specific provincial requirements, we document data flows and configure geo-redundancy within Canadian regions.

Can you manage both Azure and Microsoft 365 together?

Yes. Most of our Azure engagements include Microsoft 365 management -- the identity layer (Entra ID) connects both environments, and managing them separately creates gaps. We handle the full Microsoft cloud stack under a single managed service agreement.

How do you handle Azure cost management?

We implement Azure Cost Management with tagging policies, budget alerts, and monthly cost review. We also conduct quarterly right-sizing reviews and reservation planning. Most environments see 20-35% cost reduction within 90 days, primarily from identifying underutilized resources and purchasing reservations for predictable workloads.
