Case study

Regulated Azure data platform with zero-trust networking.

Design and delivery of Azure landing zones, Databricks infrastructure and Infrastructure as Code automation for regulated cloud environments.

Challenge

Building secure cloud foundations for regulated data workloads.

The engagement focused on delivering secure Azure landing zones and a cloud-native analytics platform capable of supporting regulated and highly controlled data workloads.

Requirements included tightly controlled networking, Infrastructure as Code automation, governance controls and secure connectivity between platform services and data systems.

Approach

Infrastructure automation with zero-trust design principles.

Azure landing zones were engineered using Terraform and Terragrunt with reusable infrastructure patterns supporting consistent multi-environment deployment workflows.

Databricks infrastructure was integrated with Unity Catalog governance while networking controls were implemented using private endpoints, controlled routing and custom DNS configurations aligned to zero-trust principles.

Focus areas

Core delivery components

Azure landing zones

Designed secure Azure landing zones with governance, segmentation and multi-environment deployment patterns.

Databricks & Unity Catalog

Delivered secure Databricks platform foundations with Unity Catalog governance and controlled data access.

Zero-trust networking

Implemented private endpoints, controlled connectivity patterns and custom DNS for regulated workloads.

Terraform & Terragrunt

Automated infrastructure delivery using reusable Terraform modules and Terragrunt orchestration.

Delivery details

Secure, repeatable and scalable cloud platform delivery.

Infrastructure delivery was built around reusable Terraform modules and Terragrunt orchestration patterns designed to support controlled deployments across multiple isolated environments.

Networking controls prioritised private connectivity and service isolation, minimising public exposure while enabling secure communication between platform components and managed cloud services.

Governance controls were incorporated directly into the platform design to improve consistency, reduce operational drift and support long-term maintainability for internal engineering and operations teams.
