Little Fluffy Clouds
summary
Azure-first migration uses Azure SQL with geo-replication and failover groups to get SQL Azure failover in under ten minutes and point-in-time backups up to 35 days; app services use staging slots and NAT gateway (available Nov 2020) to get fixed outbound IPs; SignalR as a managed service handles 1,000 concurrent connections for SignalR £35 per unit and removes the need for a custom backplane; managed Redis works but higher SLA costs jump from ~£30 to ~£300 to cut yearly downtime from ~9 hours to ~11 minutes, and Front Door currently drops client certificates requiring a service discovery workaround.
