Cloud & Hybrid Networking

It depends on your architecture. Microsoft 365 itself doesn't require VPN — it's designed for direct internet access with modern authentication. However, if you have on-premises resources (file servers, line-of-business apps, domain controllers) that remote users need to access, you'll need VPN or similar secure remote access. We help you design split-access: Microsoft 365 goes direct to the internet for optimal performance, while on-prem resources route through VPN. For hybrid identity scenarios (Azure AD Connect), we ensure AD sync traffic flows securely between on-prem and cloud.

Yes. We design site-to-site VPN topologies that securely connect multiple offices to each other and to cloud platforms (Azure, AWS). Common patterns include hub-and-spoke (all sites connect to a central hub) or full mesh (every site connects to every other site) depending on your traffic patterns and redundancy requirements. We also integrate cloud-native constructs like Azure Virtual WAN for large multi-site deployments, ensuring consistent security policies, proper routing, and failover capabilities across the entire hybrid network.

We create unified documentation that treats your hybrid environment as one integrated system. This includes network topology diagrams showing on-prem sites, cloud VNets/VPCs, and VPN tunnels; IP addressing plans covering both environments; identity architecture diagrams showing Azure AD Connect, federation, or sync flows; security zone maps showing how data flows between environments; and configuration documentation for all connection points. The documentation is structured so your team (or any future support provider) can understand how all pieces fit together, troubleshoot issues spanning both environments, and make informed changes without breaking connectivity.
