Overview

With cloud assessment and planning services, get maximum value from your existing infrastructure and cloud to enable a digitally transformed organization. Our services include thorough IT assessment; planning and building strategies; visualizing, developing and preparing architecture; cloud migration consulting; and estimating economics for a cost optimized infrastructure model to provide a scalable, agile and secure business environment.
Our assessment and planning services help you address your key challenges.
  • How to get more agility, speed, and performance for your IT assets?
  • How to decide between private and public cloud deployments and how to factor in both for your organization’s short to medium term IT strategy?
  • How to decide which apps to take to cloud?
  • How to control ‘zombie apps’ or ‘shadow IT’ or workloads consuming more resources than value they are delivering?
  • How to address changes in organization and staff after cloud migration?

Cloud assessment and planning process

Assessment
Assessment
In initial phase, we assess your enterprise environment, infrastructure, workloads and applications. Assessing applications and workloads for cloud readiness will prepare you to determine which applications and data should be moved to a cloud environment and which delivery models – public, private or hybrid can be supported.
Planning
Planning
During planning, we help build infrastructure maps and application migration strategy depending on app performance and dependency and help identify shadow IT. An application to be migrated will be interconnected at many places, so application owners need to address the impact of these connections before migration.
Preparation
Preparation
This phase is to determine your app groups cloud viability, readiness and migration associated costs. Apps will be prioritized depending upon their score for cloud readiness and their mission criticality to your business. In this phase, we’ll right-size any under or over utilized resources and address security and privacy issues as well.
Visualization
Visualization
In this phase, we group apps depending on interconnectivity and dependencies, modify them with insights from assessment and infrastructure mapping. App integration is divided into three broad categories- process, data and presentation integration.
Estimation
Estimation
In this phase, we create a comparison of TCO of running applications in cloud or on-premises with precise inputs on infrastructure, tools used, training, labor etc. and calculate the ROI of cloud migration from on-premise.
