Microsoft Azure is a Cloud-based, powerful and secure Platform as a Service offering from Microsoft.  2M utilizes Azure extensively for building Cloud-based environments, hosting applications and extending the in-house IT infrastructure of our clients Data Centers (and our own).  By eliminating the need to purchase equipment (and the care and feeding that goes along with it - like power and repair) and Platform Licenses, you enjoy greater capability and flexibility and less headaches than would have been possible if it were necessary to purchase the assets and bring them In-House. 

2M has leveraged this power as a way to deliver Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions to our customers.  Assets that you could purchase and bring InHouse (Windows or Linux Servers, Sites, Databases, Authentication, Storage, Virtual Workstations, Docker Containers, Artificial Intelligence, IoT, APIs, etc) can be hosted with much less trouble and grief in The Cloud.  Literally hundreds of Services in over fifty (50) Azure Regions worldwide are available.

Azure is a perfect delivery mechanism for Applications and Websites, providing a scaleable and durable hosting environment for our Applications and packages.  Through Azure, we can deliver Applications and functionality quickly and efficiently to our customers via subscription services.

Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) is a very popular use case for Azure and is the #1 "First Step" of ground-based infrastructures into The Cloud.

The Azure platform is open and connective and is constantly upgraded with new features and extended capability.  It's the perfect vehicle for extending your IT Infrastructure and providing additional capability when you need it or moving critical Line-of-Business applications and assets into secure and durable Cloud.  You don't need to purchase for 'where you are going' before you get there; subscribe for what you need now, and allow your subscription to grow as your needs do.

Microsoft 365 is a Cloud-based version of Microsoft's Office Suite, bundled with several other business applications - SharePoint Online, Exchange, Power BI, CRM, Project, Office and Microsoft Teams.  Consuming these products through The Cloud allows the customer to purchase features as-needed and to access these assets directly through their web browser (or mobile device) - providing for connectivity anywhere and everywhere.  Shout-out to SharePoint Online - facilitating collaboration and freeing workers from the limitations of their desktop.

Simply moving your Exchange eMail into Microsoft 365 allows a business to dispense with the care and feeding of a fairly resource-intense application and still enjoy Business-class eMail and associated functionality such as shared calendars and a single version of your InBox. 

Business disruptions due to local infrastructure issues (power outage, building maintenance or server upgrade) are a thing of the past, as your eMail service features built-in redundancy and fail-over.  You can even integrate Microsoft 365 with your local Active Directory for single sign-in authentication.

SharePoint Online delivers Document Management, Workflows, a Website platform, Application Development and Deployment, BI and Hosted Office Services directly thorugh Microsoft 365, to you anywhere.

Teams provides messaging and Video Conferencing, Team Sites, Content Sharing and shift Management capabilities through your web browser and to any device.

The Microsoft Power Platform helps us turn your great ideas into beautiful solutions fast and efficiently by empowering us with the ability to use Microsoft 365 applcations as a source of data.
