Ansible Use Case : Vmware to Azure migration

[shamaljayalath]

We have a partner who is trying to migrate all his on-prem workloads running on on-prem VMWare env to Azure. They are interested in finding out if we are able to bring in Ansible to automate some of the manual work that requires during the migration.

I think its really good if Microsoft is able to assist us looking into this as this will give us a compelling story to go out to our partners running their workloads on VMWare and market this automation solution which will make the migration process much easier.

I think I have a understanding what’s the best way to go about this but we got to make it more easily consumable via Ansible.

Here’s what I’m thinking :

You got any idea’s how to wrap this around Ansible? perhaps we can automate setting up of these pre-requisites via Ansible as well?

Happy to hear your thoughts.
