FAQPage Schema
How do I plan Azure cloud adoption using the Cloud Adoption Framework?

Azure cloud adoption planning uses CAF guidance to align strategy, readiness, and landing zones for structured enterprise operationalization. You outline strategy, governance, workload patterns, and deployment to execute cloud migration.

What is an Azure landing zone and how does CAF define it?

An Azure landing zone is a pre-provisioned cloud environment managed through CAF deployment patterns. CAF defines landing zones to provide scalable, secure Azure subscriptions aligned with governance and operational requirements.

Can I use CAF guidance for AVS, AKS, or SAP migrations to Azure?

CAF guidance supports AVS, AKS, SAP, and Oracle migrations to Azure. The framework provides specific adoption scenarios and migration patterns to operationalize specialized workloads within governed landing zones.

How do I design Azure governance and operations for enterprise cloud adoption?

Azure governance design uses CAF to establish policy alignment, operational management, and security baselines across landing zones. The framework structures organization teams and governance disciplines to manage cloud workloads.

Does Azure CAF support AI and analytics platform deployments?

Azure CAF supports AI and analytics platform deployments using structured adoption scenarios. The framework aligns these workloads with enterprise landing zones and governance patterns to ensure secure cloud infrastructure.

When should I not use the Azure Cloud Adoption Framework for migration?

Azure CAF is not suited for simple, single-workload migrations lacking cross-functional governance needs. The framework targets complex enterprise adoption programs requiring structured strategy, readiness, and landing zone alignment.
