Azure global enterprise diagram

AzurePro 20

We are a global companyy and new to Azure at the stage of designing Azure architecture. looking examples of a Architectures for a global firm considering Web/App/DB tier along with networking catering Intranet and Internet Zone. i searched online but did not get too specific as per the requirement. can anyone share diagrams of above requirement for the similar architecture ? Appreciate your help. Thank you.

Hi AzurePro,

thank you for reaching out and sharing your current progress with your Azure architecture. It sounds like an exciting journey!

As a fellow German from the land of bratwursts and pretzels, I'm even more delighted to assist you here.

I do have some follow-up questions to better understand the specifics and design a comprehensive solution that meets your needs:

Intranet and Internet Zones: Could you please provide more details on the specific requirements for the Intranet and Internet Zones? For example, are there specific security or compliance standards that need to be met? What do you mean by Intranet? On a network layer or application layer (like Sharepoint...)

Web/App/DB Tiers: Could you clarify the expected scale and performance requirements for each tier? This information would help in designing an architecture that can handle your workloads efficiently. Are there any requirements we have to consider?

Networking: Are there any specific networking requirements or constraints, such as VNet peering, VPN, or ExpressRoute, that need to be considered as well?

Global Deployment: Given that you're a global firm, do you have any specific regions or data residency requirements for your deployment?

Understanding these details will help us to create a design that is tailored to your needs. Any examples or diagrams you can share would also be greatly appreciated!

@Patchfox Here is info.

1 - We want to create similar like on prem web/app/db infrastructure in Azure where applications will be accessible public internet and private (LZ). Intranet where internal applications will be hosted and internet where public application will be hosted.

2- Performace and scaling - When choosing a database for a web app in Azure, consider performance requirements like fast query execution, low latency, and efficient data access, while scaling needs should include the ability to handle increasing traffic by adding more database instances or increasing resource allocation depending on your expected user volume and data size. Application should be Optimize your application code to efficiently interact with the database, including using stored procedures when necessary. For the compute services scaling up and down.

3- Platform and LZ already configured. on prem is connected to azure via SD WAN tunnel. if we can explore express route would be a great measure.

4 - Data residency is - India will be main region but for Singapore region we have requirement of resource and its data in Singapore should not go outside Singapore.

Hi @AzurePro

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

Thanks for your detailed explanation.

Architecture Overview: You can replicate your on-premises web, app, and DB infrastructure in Azure by creating separate tiers for each and designating zones for Intranet and Internet. This ensures that internal applications are only accessible within the network, while public applications are accessible to users outside.

Performance and Scaling: Choose a database service in Azure that meets performance needs like fast queries and low latency, with scalability options to handle growing traffic. Optimize application code for efficient database interactions and use scalable compute services to adjust resources based on workload demands.

Networking: Use your existing platform and landing zone configuration while setting up connectivity between on-premises and Azure through an SD-WAN tunnel. For better performance and security, consider implementing ExpressRoute for a dedicated private connection.

Data Residency: Ensure that all resources and data in India remain within the region, while also implementing measures in Singapore to keep resources and data localized within the Singapore region without leaving it.
