Cloud Readiness Assessment Services We are Highly Specialized
IT Outposts experts will conduct an in-depth analysis of your company’s cloud readiness across the whole IT infrastructure, applications, and services. Our team will help you decide which cloud operations make the most sense in your case. Below you will learn what specific cloud readiness assessment services we provide.
Assessment of the strategy
To decide whether to move application workloads to the cloud, we assess your IT organization's overall structure, business goals, and current state, including internal capabilities, procedures, technologies, tools, and policies.
Application, infrastructure, and network analysis
We apply templates and tools to catalog existing applications, infrastructure, and network architecture before prioritizing workloads and applications for migration to the cloud. This helps us ensure the smoothest possible transition.
Matching the target platform
We can help you design a high-level, targete cloud platform architecture that meets your security and risk requirements, as well as advise you on which cloud platform is best suited to your overall cloud implementation plan.
TCO analysis
Our method of cost modeling estimates total costs by contrasting your current expenditures on information technology to those that are anticipated to be incurred when moving to the cloud.
Developing a deployment strategy
Along with a proposal for additional iterations within our cloud assessment services, we perform the development of a detailed deployment plan for each of the applications that fall under the purview of your project.
Our Cloud Readiness Assessment Services Stages
IT Outposts offers a realistic plan and scalable strategy for migrating applications to the cloud. We use a multi-value cloud migration plan, including assessment, categorization, reorganization, migration, and optimization.
Systems and program evaluation
This phase includes the discovery of infrastructure assets, operating environment, architecture, and service catalog. We assess the existing infrastructure, as well as conduct cost-benefit analysis. It also implies a security assessment and risk assessment of the current infrastructure as a whole.
Classification
It is possible that not all of an organization's IT workloads are good candidates for moving to the cloud. Workloads should be classified as cloud-friendly or cloud-unfriendly based on the assessment report. To conduct cloud readiness assessments, IT Outposts experts will analyze parameters such as workload, security, compliance, and others.
Restructuring
When you move to a private or public cloud, you may need to reorganize your cloud workloads to make them more intelligible. IT Outposts specialists use the latest workload reengineering techniques.
Migration
The evaluation report will guide cloud migration. After stability and availability testing, mandatory workloads will follow low-priority workloads to the cloud. We must define the migration timeline and project milestones to migrate data to the cloud according to business goals and make it available to end users on demand.
Cloud optimization
As cloud services make up an increasing portion of the total cost of IT infrastructure, optimizing cloud is a major challenge for us. We need to not only evaluate and run cloud services but also monitor these resources to ensure maximum efficiency, security, and compliance.
Benefits of our Cloud Readiness Assessment Services
Thanks to us, you will get the assurance that your IT infrastructure will be prepared for the migration in the best way. In particular, our cloud readiness assessment services will help you to get the following benefits at the preliminary stages of the transition to the cloud.
Reduced IT costs
To save money on IT infrastructure, many companies have embraced cloud computing. With cloud computing, we can tailor the use of computing power to precisely meet the needs of your organization, avoiding unnecessary costs. Instead of holding idle resources, we can easily ramp up your infrastructure when you need it.
Flexible workflows
Fast access to most of the IT resources you need ensures parity in a rapidly changing business environment. Our experts can implement your ideas much faster because they don’t have to wait weeks or months to connect and build infrastructure components; instead, they can simply add the appropriate resources to your cloud system.
Increased security
There is a constant focus on ensuring everyone’s security. Moving to the cloud allows us to update your IT production to the latest standards, which, in turn, makes the organization safer from cyberattacks. Putting something in the cloud doesn’t automatically make it more secure. Indeed, with our cloud-based technology, the security rules needed for individual procedures can be more precisely configured, managed, and controlled.
Data center consolidation
With the cloud, you can avoid the cost and hassle of maintaining your own data centers and leave that task to our cloud experts. In addition, thanks to us, you can also increase productivity by sharing access to cloud services as you see fit. Companies using CRM, SAP, data analytics, etc. can benefit from the increased efficiency of cloud technology through automation made possible by digital transformation. The potential of such virtualization in the cloud is almost limitless.
Accelerated development
It’s no secret that technological advances are critical to the success of any business today, whether it’s organic growth or strategic mergers and acquisitions. With our automated infrastructure scaling and flexible cloud data management services, it will be easier for your enterprise to pool additional resources.
