How do we work?

1

Assessment

  • Evaluate existing on-premise infrastructure, applications, and dependencies.
  • Choose an optimal cloud provider and migration strategy (e.g., lift & shift).
  • Develop a secure and scalable cloud architecture aligning with business
    objectives.

2

Preparation / POC

  • Implement robust data encryption and access control measures.
  • Assess and prepare applications for cloud compatibility.
  • Provision the necessary cloud resources such as storage and compute.

3

Transition

  • Execute secure and efficient data migration to the chosen cloud platform.
  • Migrate applications using the predetermined migration approach.
  • Consider a Proof of Concept (POC) if necessary to validate the approach.

4

Verification

  • Conduct comprehensive testing to validate the functionality and integrity of
    applications and data.
  • Ensure the migrated environment meets all set performance and security
    standards.
  • Prepare for final migration sign-off from stakeholders.

5

Activation

  • Perform the cutover to the new cloud environment and validate operational functionality.
  • Monitor and optimize application performance and resource utilization.
  • Implement continuous cost management strategies to enhance efficiency.

6

Maintenance

  • Regularly update security measures including patch management and
    vulnerability scanning.
  • Develop and refine disaster recovery plans to ensure business continuity.
  • Provide continuous training and support to users for smooth cloud
    adaptation.
