Microsoft Azure Lab Services (ALS) provides on-demand or scheduled access to pre-configured VM’s to execute classes, trainings, and workshops. Last year, ALS released a new update consisting of improved and enhanced functionalities. Research insights suggest that customers take 1-month for migration, facing problems like frequent manual configurations, inconsistent documentation & hassle of communicating with customer service teams. The goal of this project is to design and develop a seamless migration experience, that enables customers to seamlessly migrate to the latest version. This migration experience reduced operational overhead for customers, empowering them to focus on tasks that effectively matter the most.
