When considering a move to Azure there are several core considerations which need to be fully understood, including:
What workloads will be suitable candidates for migration to Azure?
How much will it cost to run migrated workloads in Azure?
How can I better understand dependencies between the systems that I have in my data centre prior to migration?
How do I go about planning migration?
The Azure Cloud Assessment will not only create an up-to-date inventory of your systems but will also visualise the dependencies between these systems. It will also ensure you have the most economical options to provide costs for running these workloads in Azure. - Planning service works with specific services

Azure Cloud Assessment is a service provided by Servent to help accelerate and expedite your migration to Azure.
A challenge for many organisations on their cloud journey is lack of visibility into their current IT estates’ infrastructure, service components and dependencies.
Azure Cloud Assessment ensures that all workloads and data are identified, and their dependencies mapped in the most efficient manner possible. This is crucial in laying the foundation to making informed plans regarding migration suitability and to optimally
target appropriate cloud platform offerings.

Fighting climate changeFighting climate change
Microsoft Azure is committed to fighting climate change through various initiatives. One of the ways Azure fights climate change is by using renewable energy sources to power its data centers. Azure has set a goal to be powered by 100% renewable energy by 2025. Additionally, Azure is working to improve energy efficiency in its data centers, reducing the overall carbon footprint. Azure also offers its customers tools and resources to help them reduce their own carbon footprint, such as the Microsoft Sustainability Calculator, which helps customers understand and reduce their carbon emissions associated with their cloud workloads.
