Cloud Migration & Modernisation Services

Moving complex applications to the Cloud requires a comprehensive strategy built on proven frameworks and processes, strong technical execution and in-depth experience. Our Cloud Migration services team helps to move your most complex and demanding applications to the hyperscale public cloud quickly and efficiently. We’ll make an initial assessment of your IT infrastructure and provide a high-level migration roadmap. We’ll set up all your accounts and privileges with the Cloud provider. We can have you up and running in as little as 10 minutes.

Have you taken the first step in your Cloud journey? Perhaps you’ve moved some of your applications onto the hyperscale public cloud, or you’ve established your own Private Cloud on on-premise servers. Now that you understand the power of Cloud computing, the next step is to move more of your computing resources onto the Cloud and optimise the performance of your Cloud solutions. For many organisations, this means Cloud modernisation. Our Cloud modernisation services are designed to help you smoothly and securely progress in Cloud maturity.

What is Cloud Migration?

Cloud migration is the process of moving your business’s data, email and applications to a Cloud computing environment. Often, this entails moving the data from a legacy, on-premise IT infrastructure to the hyperscale public cloud. For many companies legacy applications have become outdated, unreliable, insecure and extremely costly to maintain. Companies spend more simply ‘keeping the lights on’ than creating systems that will drive business agility and growth.

Today, Cloud migration has become a ‘when’ not an ‘if’ as part of Cloud modernisation strategies. But many organisations lack the business or technical expertise to complete the transition. Our Cloud Migration services remove the risk and pain of shifting moving you to the Cloud. We’ll handle the planning, assessment, while ensuring your business continues undisrupted during the process.

Why Migrate To The Hyperscale Public Cloud?

The advantages of choosing a hyperscale public cloud provider – such as AWS or Microsoft Azure – are clear. There is no other IT infrastructure that can deliver:

  • Virtually limitless compute capacity
  • Virtually limitless storage capacity
  • Virtually limitless scalability – both up and down
  • Highest levels of security and data protection
  • Enhanced back-up and business continuity features
  • Simplified IT infrastructure

The Business Benefits

As well as the technical benefits of hyperscale public cloud, there’s a wide range of business benefits. There include:

  • It becomes faster and more affordable to deliver Cloud apps
  • It helps break down the information silos that have built up over years internally
  • It boosts collaboration by facilitating connectivity and integration both internally and externally
  • It increases business agility by giving access to Cloud services that support digital ecosystems, remote working and BYOD strategies
  • All this on a pay-as-you-go or subscription basis

What is Cloud Modernisation?

Cloud modernisation is similar to Cloud migration. Only you’re moving from one type of Cloud installation to another, rather than moving from on-premise to the Cloud. Many of the processes and techniques are the same. In some cases – such as moving from one hyperscale public cloud provider to another – they may be more straightforward.

But, they can also be more challenging, as Cloud modernisation usually means that you are increasing the sophistication and depth of your Cloud capabilities. As well as taking the opportunity to re-assess their applications and processes and re-evaluate their own IT estate, organisations often look to strengthen in areas such as governance, analytics and monitoring. There are three types.

Cloud-to-Cloud Migration

Moving from one hyperscale public cloud provider to another

Private-to-Hyperscale Public Cloud Migration

Why Move From a Private to Hyperscale Public Cloud Infrastructure?

In the past, performance and security concerns have made organisations reticent – especially those in regulated industries – to move to the hyperscale Public Cloud. Instead, they have built Private Cloud deployments on their own internal servers. However, these Private Cloud installations are often little more than virtualization that lack the power, scalability or security or hyperscale Public Cloud.

The Gartner Group found that less than 5% of Private Clouds in the public sector have full cloud features. In addition, Private Clouds can suffer from many of the drawbacks as tradition on-premise systems. They have to be managed internally. They can become outdated. They are not agile enough to grow as the business requires. As organisations become comfortable with the fact that hyperscale Public Cloud computing now delivers a superior level of security and data protection in comparison with on-premise systems, the move to hyperscale Public Cloud is accelerating. Our Cloud Modernisation services make the process fast and efficient with minimal risk or disruption to your business.
