Azure Upgrade

microsoft/github-copilot-for-azureOfficial

Handles Azure service tier upgrades and plan migrations without leaving the cloud. You point it at a Functions app on Consumption and it'll assess, migrate settings, and stand up Flex Consumption. Also does App Service to Container Apps moves and modernizes legacy Azure Java SDKs from the old com.microsoft.azure namespace to com.azure. The Redis migration piece routes to dedicated AMR tooling for both standard and Enterprise tiers. It's careful about destructive actions and tracks progress in markdown, which is reassuring when you're touching production infrastructure. If you're stuck manually clicking through Azure portal upgrades or running half-documented migration scripts, this automates the assessment and execution steps into a repeatable flow.

Azure Upgrade

This skill handles assessment and automated upgrades of existing Azure workloads from one Azure service, hosting plan, or SKU to another — all within Azure. This includes plan/tier upgrades (e.g. Consumption → Flex Consumption), cross-service migrations (e.g. App Service → Container Apps), and SKU changes. It also covers Azure SDK for Java source-code modernization (e.g. legacy Java com.microsoft.azure.* → modern com.azure.*). This is NOT for cross-cloud migration — use azure-cloud-migrate for that.
