Helping you unlock the value from your Microsoft Azure investment
Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing service created by Microsoft for building, testing, deploying, and managing applications and services through Microsoft-managed data centres.
The Azure cloud platform offers more than 200 products and cloud services designed to help you bring new solutions to life – solutions that will solve today’s challenges and create the future. Build, run and manage applications across multiple clouds, on-premises and at the edge, with the tools and frameworks of your choice.
Our Managed Services for Microsoft Azure help customers easily use Azure services and benefit from flexible consumption-based models, such as infrastructure as a service and platform as a service. In addition to managing costs, your business will also benefit from agile development and deployment of cloud-native applications.
We provide design, delivery and daily operational support of your storage and virtual network infrastructure in Azure. We also monitor and manage the systems software, infrastructure configurations and service consumption.
Migration
We can migrate your existing environment seamlessly to Azure with a fully defined road map
Technical optimisation
We provide monitoring and management of your Azure environment to ensure an optimal level of speed and reliability.
Security & Governance

This includes advising your business and identifying workloads that are suited to migration to the cloud. It also includes transformation and cloud migration services to take the risk out of moving core applications with complex workloads.
Richard and his team are a real inspiration to anyone who meets them and I have watched Lumina’s growth over the last few years with interest and admiration. Richard has been an amazing supporter of the Hospice of St Francis, being a Gold member of the Corporate Partner Network for almost two years. He takes an active interest in the community and is passionate about his company and his town: nothing is too much trouble, he is always willing to help, to give up his time and to provide business advice when asked. Lumina is an inspiration to any company wanting to set up business in Hertfordshire.

The team at Lumina Technologies have made the Amoun Travel & Tours office IT transition seamless and problem free. The office set-up has been vastly improved and the IT Support services are flawless. No issue goes unresolved, which is extremely reassuring.

Hawkstone Management Services Ltd is a small company for which IT Outsourcing is realistically the only viable option. Lumina Technologies have successfully performed this role for over fifteen years. They also provide innovative solutions to keep pace with technological progress. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lumina to similar sized businesses.

It has been a great pleasure working with Lumina Technologies over the past two years. They have fully committed to being involved in the local community with volunteering and with professional advice and commitment, helping many local charities along the way. As a growing company it proves that being involved in the local community is helping them attract and retain a talented workforce and I look forward to working with them well into the future.

We worked with Lumina on a GDPR Audit. Richard was knowledgeable and professional throughout, and did the best he could to bring a dry topic to life through lots of real life examples and analogies. We were so impressed with the service Lumina provided and the value we got from partnering with them on this project – we couldn’t recommend them enough.
