Cloud Transformation
The Cloud has transformed the way technology enables businesses today and now a game changer how IT services are obtained, used, and managed. Navigating from the various cloud options available and deciding between private, public, or a hybrid combination comes with challenges to provide innovative customer solutions.
Datacentre Migration
A successful datacenter migration can completely transform the overall operating environment – its processes, procedures, documentation and personnel – in a way that has significant, lasting benefits for an organisation’s disaster recovery readiness as well as day-to-day operational efficiency. A datacenter transformation methodology must cover the complete planning-to-implementation process, from identification of infrastructure needs to actual deployment. It must define a clear roadmap for each step of the journey, yet be flexible enough to adapt to specific situations and requirements. A transformation methodology should be based on real-world experience in development, implementation, migration, and transformation, consistent with industry best practices. The critical nature of the datacenter requires an appropriate level of project governance, including project management, risk evaluation, and risk mitigation.

Infrastructure Readiness
Recent survey's conducted certainly indicate demands on the IT infrastructure are evolving and businesses need to think carefully about the investments they are making. It’s not just about routine expansion of computer, storage and network capacity, but introducing more change-friendly and therefore future proof architectures, solutions and delivery models. But the survey also tells us that beyond the need for efficiency, flexibility and responsiveness, every organisation has a unique set of requirements and constraints. Consider if you're satisfied with the performance and stability of your current infrastructure or if you are looking for ways to improve things, a readiness assessment can help you identify performance bottlenecks and suggest security and stability improvements.
Cloud Application Readiness
Assessing cloud readiness is paramount to ensure a successful migration. From a cloud service provider perspective, it is important to work with customers to ensure they have realistic expectations and ultimately get the most value and benefit from a migration. Migration undertaking should be phased and in a measured way that considers key resourcing, what should and should not move and the processes supporting both staff and the changes to the business that cloud adoption brings.
