Azure landing zone services
An Azure landing zone is the secure, governed foundation your workloads run on, and North Peak Cloud builds one as code in weeks. Following the Cloud Adoption Framework and Well-Architected Framework, we set up management-group structure, identity, networking, and Azure Policy guardrails in Bicep or Terraform that you own. It is the difference between scaling Azure with confidence and firefighting later.
- Management-group and subscription design
- Microsoft Entra identity and RBAC
- Hub-spoke or Virtual WAN networking
- Azure Policy guardrails as code
- Bicep or Terraform you keep — no lock-in
AI on Azure, done right.
AI-ready foundations
Azure AI Foundry hubs and projects, private networking to your models, identity and policy guardrails — the secure base every AI workload needs before it scales.
Cost control for AI & cloud
FinOps for the AI era: token and PTU strategy, model right-sizing, reservations and anomaly detection. We find the waste your invoice is hiding.
Platform engineering
Landing zones as code in Bicep or Terraform, GitOps, policy-as-code and golden paths. Enterprise-grade Azure delivered in weeks, not quarters.
Security & responsible AI
Content filtering, evaluations, data-residency and audit-ready guardrails aligned to the EU AI Act and ISO 42001 — trustworthy AI you can put in front of customers.
Migration & modernisation
Cloud Adoption Framework migrations and Well-Architected reviews that leave you cheaper, faster and ready for AI — not just lifted-and-shifted.
Senior engineers, direct
You work with the architect who does the build — no account managers, no offshore hand-off, no gatekeeping. Answers in plain English.

Asked and answered.
What is an Azure landing zone?+
An Azure landing zone is a pre-built, governed Azure environment — management groups, identity, networking and policy guardrails — set up before workloads are deployed, so you have a secure, repeatable foundation to scale on.
Do I need an AI landing zone or a standard one?+
If your near-term goal includes generative AI, our AI-ready landing zone extends the standard pattern with private model access and responsible-AI guardrails. If not, the standard landing zone is the right foundation and can be extended for AI later.
