QLDC deploys Azure landing zone framework

Public cloud platforms and services have huge potential for organisations embracing work-from-anywhere practices. But as much as these platforms provide tools and flexibility to build out a truly modern workplace, they also carry serious caveats. Building in the cloud must rise on stable foundations or risks can be involuntarily created and costs can spiral.

Queenstown Lakes District Council’s (QLDC) modest ratepayer base is eclipsed by its international popularity. Visitors who come to New Zealand because of Queenstown spend over a billion dollars per annum nationally. But with just 38,000 ratepayers, the council needs to squeeze every bit from its technology.

Looking to do more in Microsoft Azure, QLDC engaged CCL to establish a policy-hardened landing zone on which to build its work-from-anywhere future.
