The hub is a virtual network in Azure that acts as a central point of connectivity to your on-premises network. The spokes are virtual networks that peer with the hub and can be used to isolate workloads. Traffic flows between the on-premises data center(s) and the hub through an ExpressRoute or VPN gateway connection.

The hub and spoke topology is a network design where we have a central device (the hub) that is connected to multiple other devices (the spokes). This is a cost effective solution except the hub is a single point of failure. One example of where we can use a hub and spoke topology is in a frame-relay network.

A client was hosting a Citrix solution in a 3rd party on-premises datacenter and was looking to modernize that solution by leveraging the Microsoft Azure cloud. I led the design, planning, and migration of the on-premises solutions to the Azure cloud and provided on-going managed support services.

I orchestrated a transition from legacy on-prem data center to Azure and M365 while adhering to strict industry regulations in Healthcare. The transition-state architecture included a Hybrid-cloud deployment model with on-prem data centers while integrating a new Identity Management system.

Reduce time to market by avoiding manual migration and minimizing custom development.

Microsoft Visio is a diagramming and vector graphics application and is part of the Microsoft Office family. The product was first introduced in 1992, made by the Shapeware Corporation, later renamed Visio Corporation. It was acquired by Microsoft in 2000.

Visio lets you transform complicated text and tables that are hard to understand into visual diagrams that communicate information at a glance

 enables Azure resources to securely communicate with each other, the internet, and on-premises networks. Azure Virtual Network is 

the fundamental building block for your private network in Azure

A virtual network enables many types of Azure resources, such as Azure Virtual Machines (VM), to securely communicate with each other, the internet, and on-premises networks.

A virtual network (VNet) allows you to specify an IP address range for the VNet, add subnets, associate network security groups, and configure route tables. 

A subnet is a range of IP addresses in your VNet

. You can launch Azure resources into a specified subnet.
