Trey Research is a manufacturing company that builds consumer products with 29.6 billion USD in annual revenue. Trey's headquarters are in New Jersey, but they have data centers and branch offices scattered across the United States with several major offices in the United Kingdom, France, and Japan.
Even as large as it is, Trey seeks to maximize the cost-effectiveness and flexibility of its IT, especially in new projects and business units. With a dizzying number of existing business units, each with their own unique requirements from IT and ballooning costs from internal hardware and data center investment, Trey is looking to the cloud.
Trey is interested in a large-scale solution that will help mitigate creeping costs and start the transition to a modern cloud-based enterprise architecture using a solid set of controls for governance.

Create an Azure cloud governance plan to advise a manufacturing company of the features available in Azure. Discover features to bring governance to their Azure deployments, distributed administration, and allowance for secure remote connectivity and development work for their offshore developers. Attendees will be better able to design a governance plan to showcase the security and governance features of Azure and control costs. In addition,
-
Provide for cost tracking by business unit, environment, and project
-
Provide for a distributed administration model
-
Put a service catalog in place to prevent deployment of unsupported Azure services
-
Put controls in place to allow deployment of services only in specific regions
