Enterprise cloud catalogue

Build, move, govern, and run enterprise workloads on Azure.

Sense Cloud joins architecture, engineering, migration, service management, cost control, security, and resilience around the constraints of each Azure estate.

Catalogue

Services cover the estate from strategy through service management.

Each service has a defined boundary and can connect to adjacent work where dependencies require it.

01

Assess and plan

Cloud advisory, portfolio analysis, target architecture, sequencing, and investment assumptions.

02

Build and move

Landing zones, automation, workload migration, application modernization, data foundations, and hybrid connectivity.

03

Control and improve

Managed services, governance, security posture, FinOps, reliability engineering, backup, and disaster recovery.

Lifecycle

Work advances through explicit technical stages.

The stages scale from a single workload to a multi-subscription estate.

  1. 01

    Baseline

    Confirm scope, inventory, dependencies, service criticality, constraints, and access.

  2. 02

    Architect

    Select target services, boundaries, controls, automation, telemetry, and recovery requirements.

  3. 03

    Implement

    Build in controlled increments, verify expected behavior, and record exceptions.

  4. 04

    Transition

    Complete technical acceptance, knowledge transfer, support setup, and remaining-work ownership.

Common outputs

Technical artifacts remain useful after the assignment.

The exact set is agreed during scoping and aligned to customer tooling.

  1. 01

    Architecture set

    Current and target views, service choices, constraints, interfaces, and exception records.

  2. 02

    Engineering assets

    Terraform or Bicep modules, pipeline definitions, configuration, tests, and release notes where build work is included.

  3. 03

    Service materials

    Monitoring requirements, runbooks, support boundaries, change procedures, recovery steps, and ownership transfer.

Starting point

Start with a bounded business or technical objective.

Scope is sized after the estate, stakeholders, and required outputs are understood.

Questions to answer before scoping

  1. Which service boundary addresses the current constraint?
  2. What must the customer retain after the engagement ends?
Bring us the current estate

Best suited to

  • Azure programmes that cross architecture and delivery teams
  • Estates with unclear ownership, cost, risk, or migration sequence

Needed to begin

  • Named sponsor and technical contacts
  • Access to relevant inventory and architecture information

Customer responsibilities

  • Confirm priorities and constraints
  • Provide subject-matter experts and approve access

Not included by default

  • Product resale or authority to interpret licensing contracts
  • Unstated production support or security monitoring
