Microsoft Cloud Experts

What makes us experts you might wonder? For us, to be an expert, it is to challenge yourself everyday and to truly focus on the task at hand. To use the experience in the field which can provide guidelines in how to approach new situations, not using the history as the solution but to provide perspective. The cloud challenges us, it challenge how we view competence and experience, how we view almost anything.

At House of Clouds we believe that knowledge is always something fresh, something that needs to be nurtured and expanded. Also, our belief is that new solutions should be both technically solid and cost effective. To achieve this we know that the more we learn about how the standard components can and should be used, then we also can provide the best solutions possible. Solutions in the end are used by people, maybe interactively or at least the solutions result, this is why we also need to have people knowledge and change management experience.

Consultants at House of Clouds challenges themselves and their beliefs by both working with demanding projects and also testing their skills and keeping up to date through Microsoft certifications. The certifications are important so that our personnel understands the standard components and their lifecycle. Change is the new normal.

We consult and provide services within the following Microsoft areas

M365 migration, optimization, adoption and architecture
Azure
CSP licensing and support

M365 consists of several workloads from Microsoft. We can help you with everything from licensing, technical support and architectural decisions.

Many companies have migrated to the cloud and M365, for example identities synchronization and emails but there are many more workloads that can or should be enabled and used. We’ve worked in several projects were we’ve led user adoption and also been part of the technical team.

At House of Clouds we have experience within the vast majority of the different workloads both with migrations and adoption.

Within Azure there are many technical and architectural decisions that needs to be made. Transitioning to Azure can be done with regular lift and shift virtual machines, but major benefits appear once companies starts refactoring existing applications to use newer capabilities such as the use of microservices and serverless.

At House of Clouds we believe in infrastructure as code so we commonly use Azure DevOps together with ARM, Bicep or Terraform for infrastructure deployment.

Microsoft’s Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) software is a modern way to consume Microsoft licenses in both M365 and Azure.

One of the great advantages of the program is that partners can build their own offerings by combining cloud services from Microsoft together with other services and applications. The offer is then invoiced from the partner instead of Microsoft.

The strength of CSP is that all partners can build their own offers, but it also makes it difficult to compare different offers with each other. This applies not least to the support that in the CSP program has been moved to the partner and for many customers one of the most important components in the delivery.

We at House of Clouds like transparency and have therefore developed a support plan that is both clear and competent at the same time as it is included at no cost to customers with a little more consumption. The support can also be purchased as an option for those customers who have a little less consumption but who want the security of the large company.
