Starting point & goal
An insurance group wanted to bring eleven business units into the Azure cloud in a controlled way — compliant, and without every unit reinventing the wheel. What was missing: a shared foundation with clear guardrails.
Challenges
- Eleven business units with different requirements and maturity levels
- Strict regulatory requirements from supervisory authorities and data protection
- Shadow IT due to a lack of self-service offerings
- Compliance evidence previously manual and error-prone
Implementation
We designed and implemented a landing-zone architecture that expresses governance as code: policies, network topology and permissions are versioned and enforced automatically. A self-service portal provisions compliant environments in minutes — compliance reports are generated automatically.
