About Us

IT ARCADE is a specialized IT consulting firm delivering end-to-end solutions for database performance, cloud transformation, and enterprise data strategies. With over a decade of proven expertise, we empower organizations to optimize legacy and modern workloads, achieve significant cost savings, and build scalable, high-performance data architectures on Azure and beyond.

As a Microsoft Solutions Experts for Data & AI (Azure) and Infrastructure (Azure), we combine deep technical tuning with strategic services—including IT staffing, database design, and full-spectrum cloud migration—to deliver measurable business outcomes.

Our Focus

Modernization

Solutions Partner for Data & AI (Azure) and Infrastructure (Azure). We design services to reduce costs, improve performance, and modernize data workloads on Azure.
