Microsoft Azure
Azure adoption pays back when the architecture matches the workload, costs are visible, and data-residency aligns with regulation. We help on all three.
Landing Zone
Azure CAF subscription, RBAC, network, governance.
Migration
Azure Migrate, phased waves, validation, cutover.
FinOps
Cost Management, Reserved Instances, anomaly alerts.
Defender for Cloud
CSPM, workload protection, Azure Policy, JIT access.

Region selection
Microsoft has announced plans for Azure datacenter regions in Türkiye; until those are generally available, customers in Türkiye most commonly run workloads in West Europe (Amsterdam) or North Europe (Dublin), both with low latency and broad service coverage. For data-residency-sensitive workloads we review the current Microsoft Azure global infrastructure status before commitment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Microsoft has announced plans for Türkiye Azure regions; as of writing they are not yet generally available. Customers in Türkiye most commonly use West Europe (Amsterdam) and North Europe (Dublin). For data-residency-sensitive workloads we review the current Azure global infrastructure status before commitment.
Azure is pay-as-you-go by default, with Reserved Instances (1 or 3 year commitment) reducing compute cost 30-60%, and Azure Savings Plans offering flexible commitment. Monthly invoice from Microsoft direct or via partner.
Yes — VMware to Azure, on-premise Windows / Linux server consolidation, SQL Server to Azure SQL or Managed Instance, AD hybrid with Entra ID. We use Azure Migrate for assessment, plan phased waves, validate cost projections.
No — they are separate platforms with overlapping identity. M365 is the SaaS productivity suite. Azure is the cloud infrastructure platform. Both share Entra ID. A company can use M365 without Azure (most SMBs), Azure without M365 (rare), or both (typical mid-market).
How Xen Bilişim delivers Microsoft Azure
- 1. Discovery: Stakeholder interviews, current-state inventory, compliance review and risk mapping; deliverable: written discovery report.
- 2. Plan: Target architecture, SKU/licence selection, migration plan and SLA scope documented; quote signed.
- 3. Implement: Phased rollout with pilot → full deployment; user training and runbook delivered; KVKK/ISO compliance evidence collected.
- 4. Operate: Continuous monitoring, quarterly health-checks, incident response and roadmap reviews — under MSP retainer or project-end transfer.
Typical end-to-end timeline: 4-6 weeks (varies by scope).
