Migrate to the cloud.
As businesses grow and evolve, they often find themselves constrained by outdated technology and monolithic platforms. These legacy systems slow innovation, efficiency, and scalability, making it essential to transition to the cloud. We understand the challenges you face and are here to guide you through a fast and seamless cloud migration.
“We are extremely happy. We are 100% cloud. I am genuinely surprised that we completed the migration in 7 months and without any major hiccups”
Tomi Pienimaki, CDO, Finnair
Legacy systems holding you back?
Legacy System Challenges. Limited Agility. High Costs. Security Risks.
The journey to the cloud begins with recognising the limitations of your current infrastructure. We help you navigate these hurdles and lay a strong foundation for your digital future.
It starts by identifying the root causes of operational inefficiencies and providing practical solutions that make a tangible difference to your IT and business outcomes.
And, as cloud natives, we’ll make the move to the cloud easier and more cost-effective than you ever imagined.
Legacy system migration and modernisation.
Addressing end-of-life support issues, expensive licences, and outdated on-premises workloads is critical. We offer efficient strategies to migrate and modernise your legacy systems, ensuring a smooth transition to the cloud.
By migrating to the cloud, you’ll take advantage of public cloud cost efficiencies, scalability, security, data connectivity and new services. So, it’s not just about saving costs and lowering maintenance, but opening up new opportunities for integrating things like advanced analytics and AI, driving further business innovation.
- Mitigate risks associated with outdated technology
- Optimise costs by modernising legacy applications
- Achieve significant savings through streamlined processes
Cost optimisation.
Managing costs effectively can be a concern during cloud migration. Unoptimised licences and inefficient resource use can lead to escalating expenses, you’ve probably heard the stories.
But by implementing a rigorous cost optimisation strategy, including right-sizing resources and leveraging reserved instances, companies can easily realise the promised cost efficiencies cloud offers. We average these savings to be 30-40%. And this approach allows organisations to reinvest the savings into further technological advancements and business growth.
- Identify and implement cost-saving measures
- Optimise resource allocation and usage
- Embed best practices for ongoing cost management
Enhancing security.
Security is a critical concern, especially when legacy systems are involved. Compliance issues and potential breaches due to outdated security protocols are a known risk in on-premises data centres.
But, migrating to the cloud with a traditional provider often means importing technical debt, leading to security vulnerabilities.
That’s why we conduct a Well-Architected Review to identify and fix these issues. By moving to a secure, well-architected cloud environment, you’ll significantly enhance your security posture, ensure compliance with industry regulations and protect sensitive data.
- Conduct comprehensive security assessments
- Implement best practices for cloud security
- Develop a robust security posture to protect your data and infrastructure
Putting the right skills in place.
Transitioning to the cloud requires more than just technology changes—it requires upskilling your teams and fostering a culture of innovation.
Through targeted training and mentoring programs, you can upskill your workforce, fostering a culture that embraces new technologies and agile practices. This cultural shift not only boosts employee morale but also significantly improves the company’s ability to innovate and respond to market changes quickly.
- Develop comprehensive training and mentoring programs
- Enhance team capabilities and engagement
- Foster a culture that embraces new technologies and methodologies
Setting up governance.
Setting up a Cloud Centre of Excellence (CCoE) is a must in guiding the success of your cloud investments. Your CCoE should drive value, not just maintain operations. But, if not set up correctly or maintained properly, the CCoE can become overwhelmed, so it can’t scale or support the broader organisation effectively.
This shift empowered business units with self-service capabilities and allowed the CCoE to focus on strategic projects that aligned with the company’s broader digital transformation goals.
- Establish governance and automation frameworks
- Empower teams with self-service capabilities
- Align CCoE functions with business and digital strategies
Migration discovery and assessment.
Businesses struggle with accurate inventory of their IT assets and the complexities of interdependencies between applications. So for example, you could move to cloud and find that many of your legacy applications were underutilised or misconfigured, leading to inefficiencies and higher costs.
Understanding what needs to move and how to move it is crucial. Our 7R approach ensures a thorough analysis and executable roadmap.
Through our detailed discovery and assessment process, they could right-size their workloads and optimise their IT landscape, resulting in a more efficient and cost-effective cloud migration.
- Dedicated teams for a streamlined assessment
- Rightsizing & optimising workloads
- Comprehensive 7R analysis for extensive scope
Migrate away from your data centre.
So, you’re facing significant major expenses and maintenance costs tied to your ageing data centres. By moving to the cloud, you’ll avoid the need for expensive hardware upgrades and instead utilise scalable, pay-as-you-go cloud services. But you’ll need a cloud-native partner – one that’s done 1000’s of these projects – to make sure it’s done the right way.
Escape the limitations of your data centre and embrace the cloud with a structured migration plan. This transition not only reduces operating costs but also provides a more agile and resilient infrastructure capable of supporting future growth.
- Mobilise with high-level design and PoC migrations
- Migrate with priority application implementation and handover
Be operations-ready after migration.
Many companies find that initial migrations fail to deliver expected efficiencies due to lack of proper management. For instance, moving to the cloud but finding your operational costs are still high due to inefficient management practices.
By adopting managed cloud services, you can streamline operations, improve resource utilisation, and significantly reduce costs, all while enhancing security and compliance.
And we can help with all that, to ensure ongoing management and optimisation of your cloud environment.
- Integrated managed services team addressing all technical, data, security and operational considerations from the outset.
- Achieve value faster, as your workloads and applications are managed as they’re migrated.
Database Transformation.
You’re probably facing challenges with outdated and fragmented databases that hinder your data analytics capabilities.
By transforming your database infrastructure to a cloud-native environment, you’ll achieve faster query performance, improved data security and better integration with their analytics tools.
We simplify and accelerate database migrations with automation and robust security measures. And you’ll gain deeper insights and make data-driven decisions more effectively.
- Reduce manual labour and enhance quality
- Real-time data collection for large datasets
- Enhanced security and consistency
VMware migrations.
Are you a VMware user feeling uncertainty about the future after the Broadcom acquisition? Have you invested in VMware skills and resources, used it successfully for many years and are looking for stability moving forward?
You can continue leveraging your VMware investments while leveraging cloud benefits in a seamless migration. You can migrate to your chosen hyperscaler platform, enabling you to move or extend on-premises VMware environments. So you can reap the benefits and scalability of public cloud, while retaining your existing assets, skills and tools.
