Assess and migrate cloud workloads from AWS, GCP, and other providers to Azure services. Supports Lambda-to-Azure Functions migration with dedicated scenario reference and best practices Generates assessment reports mapping source services to Azure equivalents before any code conversion Converts source code to target Azure runtime models, with output isolated in a separate <source-folder>-azure/ directory Requires sequential phase execution: assessment first, then migration, with user...

This skill handles assessment and code migration of existing cloud workloads to Azure.
Rules
- Follow phases sequentially — do not skip
- Generate assessment before any code migration
- Load the scenario reference and follow its rules
- Use
mcp_azure_mcp_get_azure_bestpracticesandmcp_azure_mcp_documentationMCP tools - Use the latest supported runtime for the target service
- Destructive actions require
ask_user— functions global-rules | app-service global-rules - Report progress to user — During long-running operations (deployments, image pushes), provide resource-level status updates so the user is never left waiting without feedback — see workflow-details.md
- Audit service discovery in app code — Kubernetes DNS names (e.g.,
http://order-service:3001) do not resolve in Container Apps. During assessment, scan source code for hardcoded hostnames/ports in HTTP clients and flag them for env-var-driven URL injection
Migration Scenarios
| Source | Target | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| AWS Lambda | Azure Functions | lambda-to-functions.md (assessment, code-migration) |
| AWS Elastic Beanstalk | Azure App Service | beanstalk-to-app-service.md |
| Heroku | Azure App Service | heroku-to-app-service.md |
| Google App Engine | Azure App Service | app-engine-to-app-service.md |
| AWS Fargate (ECS) | Azure Container Apps | fargate-to-container-apps.md (assessment, deployment) |
| Kubernetes (GKE/EKS/Self-hosted) | Azure Container Apps | k8s-to-container-apps.md |
| GCP Cloud Run | Azure Container Apps | cloudrun-to-container-apps.md |
| Spring Boot (Azure Spring Apps/VMs) | Azure Container Apps | spring-apps-to-aca.md |

Output Directory
All output goes to <workspace-root-basename>-azure/ at workspace root, where <workspace-root-basename> is the name of the top-level workspace directory itself (NOT a subdirectory within it). Never modify the source directory.
Steps
- Create
<workspace-root-basename>-azure/at workspace root - Assess — Analyze source, map services, generate report using the scenario-specific assessment guide → functions assessment | app-service assessment
- Migrate — Convert code/config using the scenario-specific migration guide → functions code-migration | app-service code-migration
- Ask User — "Migration complete. Test locally or deploy to Azure?"
- Hand off to azure-prepare for infrastructure, testing, and deployment
