Migrate

Cloud adoption within a company is a major undertaking. Let our team of experts help you launch your successful cloud initiative so you can quickly realize the benefits of cloud technology to grow and stay competitive.

Migration to the cloud should be based on an incremental cloud transformation process. It assumes that your organization will start with an initial, limited-scope, cloud migration effort, which will expand iteratively to include more workloads as your Operations teams refine and improve your migration processes.

The following are our migration services that help migrate your company into the cloud.

Strategy & Discovery

• Business and executive priorities - Understand business and executive priorities and drivers. Use this to inform and define the target state vision and asset portfolio for cloud migration.
• Portfolio roadmap - We understand your portfolio, the dependencies between applications, and begin to consider what types of migration strategies you will need to employ to meet your business case objectives.
• Application analysis - Each application is assessed to understand if you rehost or rebuild to take advantage of being cloud native. This and the roadmap will help to define the target state solution.

Migration

• Foundation platform build - Any new platform needs a solid foundation to build and maximise the benefits of the cloud. Key elements are setting up the correct security access aligned to your organisation structure and project workflows to ensure developers are empowered in a controlled manner.
• Application and data migration - Migration of grouped workload covering simple rehosting (“lift & shift”) migrations using infrastructure as a service (IaaS) capabilities that don’t require code and app changes, through rewiring with minimal changes (tinkering), to rebuild of discrete or component parts of an application using cloud native technologies and microservices (refactoring). During the migration phase we manage the migration to minimise downtime and then validate success.
• Process development and team enablement - As workload is moved to the cloud, we can assist in managing the change to IT personnel, new operating models and business user impacts.

Operate

• Cloud operate model for service management - Define the framework for monitoring application status and performance. Consider automation of operation activities and leverage NoOps to reduce operational costs and manage to services.
• Organisational modelling - Define the base organisation model for cloud. Refine the IT operating model across people and processes to uplift existing operations and enable innovation.
• Observability and continuous monitoring - Establish observability for management and continual monitoring of reliability and performance.
