They are a kind of a template that provides a baseline environment to facilitate the transition from on-prem to cloud while following best practices. Instead of a straight lift and shift Landing Zones are a way of rethinking IT resources and architecture in a cloud native way. * Landing Zones are implemented with //IaC// technologies like Blueprint or Terraform. > A landing zone is an environment for hosting your workloads, pre-provisioned through code. > From a workload perspective, a landing zone refers to a prepared platform into which the application gets deployed. A landing zone implementation can have compute, data sources, access controls, and networking components already provisioned. ===== Deployment Methods ===== * ARM Templates * [[https://github.com/Azure/Enterprise-Scale]] * Blueprints * Terraform ====== Virtual WAN ====== * [[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-wan/virtual-wan-about]] * [[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-wan/virtual-wan-global-transit-network-architecture]]
