With support from Ingram Micro, partners can move customers from legacy infrastructure to scalable, cost-efficient Azure environments and build on that foundation for AI modernization.
As organizations move toward AI-powered operations, many are discovering they are not starting with a clean slate. Legacy on-premises infrastructure, fragmented cloud environments, and security gaps often stand between customer ambition and execution. At the same time, customer expectations continue to rise, putting added pressure on managed services providers (MSPs) and consulting partners to deliver scalable, compliant solutions without adding operational burden or losing control of cost, complexity, and security.
As a global Microsoft distributor, Ingram Micro empowers partners to bridge that gap by supporting customers across key stages of their modernization journey, from exiting legacy infrastructure to adopting Azure-native solutions and building toward AI innovation. Rather than treating migration, modernization, and AI as separate motions, Ingram Micro guides partners to a structured, repeatable path forward on Azure.
With advanced specializations in Infrastructure and Database Migration, Azure Virtual Desktop, Azure VMware Solution, and AI Apps on Azure, Ingram Micro brings technical depth and access to Microsoft-backed funding programs to their engagements with partners. They empower partners to modernize infrastructure, optimize costs, prove value faster, and lower risk as they move customers from foundational cloud transformation to AI-powered workloads.
Evolving beyond legacy infrastructure without disruption
Calyx IT is an MSP that has spent more than 20 years serving customers across legal, finance, and compliant manufacturing. Over time, Calyx’s traditional private datacenter model became more difficult to sustain. Rising costs and limited scalability required more work to keep pace with customer expectations. Managing infrastructure across multiple vendors also introduced more complexity and inefficiency, while a legacy virtualization stack created added pressure through unpredictable licensing costs from third-party providers.
Calyx consulted Ingram Micro, who recommended Microsoft Azure for flexible, consumption-based infrastructure. An existing partnership between Ingram Micro and Calyx provided a foundation for tackling a larger transformation. Together, the teams developed a strategy that aligned technical requirements, cost considerations, and migration planning.
