CLOUD SERVICES

Reduce Complexity & Accelerate Cloud Modernization with Confidence.

Cloud has the potential to revolutionize business, but without guidance, it can prompt some daunting decisions. Businesses new to the cloud and cloud-native alike can struggle with complex questions…

Should I have one or more public cloud providers?

Can I leverage remaining on-premises resources for a hybrid approach?

How do I prepare my culture, people, and processes for the cloud?

How will I ensure financial transparency and efficiency in the cloud?

Do I need a dedicated cloud organization or program to be successful?

We serve as a trusted advisor answering key questions, defining strategy, managing change, and provide a complete solution to modernize your infrastructure holistically.

Cloud Advisory

We understand the pressures imposed by the process, the organizational friction that can be caused, and technology conflicts that can arise.

Our Cloud Advisory Services start by understanding your business goals and then move forward to define a strategy to embrace cloud. This will typically start with a cloud readiness assessment focused on the people, processes and workloads under consideration.

If you are further down the journey and need more targeted consultation, we have a full suite of advanced capabilities across multiple public cloud providers.

Cloud Migration

Almost anyone can provision a cloud server in today’s world, however if your enterprise is adopting the cloud for more than one application or considering a broader cloud modernization involving application refactoring, the sheer volume of choices in products, services, and architectures can be paralyzing.

Our cloud migration is designed to get you up and running in the cloud fast while maintaining business continuity. Our comprehensive methodology focuses on understanding your current state and goals and moving you to the cloud in a productive way.

Day 2 Ops
The current state of your workloads and technology stacks to determine cloud readiness and cost, and advise on best practices to reduce risk and maximize cloud adoption benefits.
A well-architected cloud infrastructure model including account structure, security, access, networking, and migration operations.
The foundational cloud infrastructure, including necessary accounts and security controls and CI/CD pipelines where your applications will be hosted.
Your workloads between clouds, and from on-premises or co-location facilities to the cloud into the secure foundational architecture.
Your cloud environment to get maximum business value out of your cloud spend by collaborating on data-driven spending decisions.
At the close of the project, we ensure your team has all the skills, tools, and documentation necessary to operate your cloud environment going forward.

Cloud Operations & Optimization

We take a holistic approach to cloud optimization. We have developed various optimization pillars based on real time data to ensure your cloud environments are running as efficiently as possible. Behind our solutions for cloud optimization is a team of experienced data scientists and architects that help you maximize the performance and returns of your cloud assets.

Without effective Day 2 operations, you will face challenges scaling your cloud environments and endanger your business transformation.
