Verified platform change
UK legal-services firm Minster Law migrated its infrastructure from private cloud and colocation to Azure, including its core case-management workload, while retaining a small explicitly bounded hybrid estate.
Transition
From: a private-cloud service in a local colocation data centre with scalability and performance limits affecting the core case-management application
To: the infrastructure estate migrated to Microsoft Azure, with the case-management application delivered through Azure Virtual Desktop and desktop and document storage moved to OneDrive while a small residual hybrid boundary remains under Azure Arc
Known unknowns
The source supports a full infrastructure migration while explicitly retaining a few systems in a hybrid state. It does not prove every third-party product or local dependency was retired. Reported cost, service-desk and productivity improvements remain organisation-attributed.
