Here’s the uncomfortable truth: disasters happen. Ransomware attacks. Servers fail. Human error. Natural disasters.
The question isn’t if something will go wrong. It’s how fast you can recover when it does.
A proper business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) plan keeps you running when others are scrambling. Whether your workloads live on-premises, in Azure, or both, we design and implement Azure backup and disaster recovery solutions that protect what matters.
You can add this as part of your Azure cloud migration, or as a standalone service. Either way, you’ll sleep better knowing your data and systems are protected.

Because some things you can't afford to lose
Transparity supported us throughout what was a significant project – migrating our infrastructure from a data centre to Azure. From start to finish, every interaction was managed with the highest professionalism. Their deep expertise in Microsoft solutions was clear at every step, and the project was executed flawlessly, complete with comprehensive final documentation. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome and wouldn't hesitate to recommend as a provider. Thank you!

We start by understanding your requirements and priorities for example - how fast do you need to recover? (your RTO – Recovery Time Objective), how much data can you afford to lose? (your RPO – Recovery Point Objective), which systems are mission-critical? What compliance requirements do you need to meet? Then we build an Azure backup and recovery solution that fits.
Next steps is to get you up and running and deploy your Azure infrastructure, set up your Azure Site Recovery (ASR) and your Virtual Machine discovery and replication with a failover plan setup.
Validate your disaster recovery plan without taking systems offline covering testing failovers, looking at lessons learned, making configuration changes, retesting failovers
We then document your disaster plan creation, assign roles and responsibilities, share testing requirements, record success criteria
The Transparity Azure team are highly certified and manages over thousands of Virtual Machines and Web Applications across hundreds of separate Azure Subscriptions.
Now in our third year of thorough audits leading to the Azure Expert MSP Accreditation, we have completed over 100 Azure Cloud Migrations following Cloud Adoption Framework best practices and have a wealth of experience working with customers of all sizes.

FAQS
Backup and disaster recovery involve creating and securely storing copies of data and systems so they can be restored in the event of data loss, outages, or cyber incidents. Azure services such as Azure Backup and Azure Site Recovery (ASR) support backup and disaster recovery by protecting data, replicating workloads, and enabling rapid recovery to maintain business continuity.
Backup focuses on creating and storing copies of data so it can be restored if lost. Disaster recovery goes further by planning how entire systems, applications, and infrastructure will be restored after a major disruption. Together, these form a complete backup and disaster recovery solution that helps organisations maintain operations and minimise downtime during incidents.
The four stages are: understanding your digital estate, creating organisational alignment, defining skills readiness and establishing a cloud adoption plan.
The Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) is a set of best practices, tools and guidance developed by Microsoft to help organisations plan and execute their move to the cloud. It covers everything from defining a cloud strategy and planning your migration through to governance, security and ongoing management. As a recognised Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework partner, Transparity uses the CAF to structure every cloud adoption engagement.
The timeline varies depending on the size and complexity of your organisation's digital estate. Transparity works through the planning stages efficiently to give you a clear migration plan, cost model and skills roadmap as quickly as possible -- typically through a structured series of assessments and workshops. Our Microsoft partnership means the initial assessment can often be funded, reducing both the time and cost to get started.
A cloud adoption assessment is an analysis of your current digital estate, infrastructure and organisational readiness for moving to the cloud. At Transparity, our cloud adoption framework assessment covers your workloads, costs, skills gaps and operational structure -- giving you a clear picture of what your Azure cloud adoption will involve and what it will cost before you commit to migration.
Yes. As a specialist cloud adoption consultancy, Transparity provides end-to-end cloud adoption consulting services -- from initial assessment and planning through to migration, governance and ongoing management. We work with organisations of all sizes across a range of sectors, and our status as an Azure Expert MSP means we can access Microsoft funding to support your journey.
