Cloud Computing
Achieving agility, efficiency, cost control and better analytics by deploying a cloud big data infrastructure while taking the security and legacy imperatives into account is not a trivial task. Managing an elastic pool of resources in a multi-tenant environment while respecting the SLAs and data integrity and keeping the bills under control is not either.
We architect, deploy and operate hybrid public and private cloud solutions based on multiple offerings on a daily basis. We’ve been involved in different approaches to cloud migration, from “Lift & Shift” to complete re-platform. These experiences provide our consultants with the depth and breadth of skills needed to help you navigate, customize and operate the new normal.
Our consultants intervene on all the project life cycle, from the feasibility study to the project delivery
Cloud migration
- Gather and document the requirements (functional and nonfunctional)
- Architect the solution based on those requirements
- Roadmap definition and project planning
- Test, optimize, cut-off processes
- Public cloud services comparison
Cloud operation and optimization
- Audit infrastructure, processes and costs
- Infrastructure deployment automation
- Define and achieve desired state and processes (SLOs, SLAs)
- Infrastructure, networking and service operation
- Cost analysis and optimization
Cloud integration and development
- Technology and services qualification and validation
- Data ingestion/preparation pipelines
- Data loading and connections
