Strategy. Readiness. Design.
Cloud migration is the solution for organizations that want to transition applications, systems and storage to a cloud environment for scalability, improved productivity and lowered capital and operating costs. This typically accelerates time to market, without compromising security and compliance.
Cloud Transformation Strategy
Cloud Transformation strategy with delaPlex typically includes several phases to Plan, Design, Deploy, and Support the move of your existing assets, applications, and data to the cloud in a highly secure and cost effective manner.
- Cloud Readiness Assessment
- Cloud Infrastructure Design
- Transition/Deployment
- DevOps and Automation
- QA and Testing
Cloud Readiness Assessment
In this phase, we prepare a Proof of Concept (PoC) to explore, demonstrate, and test our recommended changes to your architecture.
This allows us to best leverage the advantages of the cloud model based on your requirements.
Cloud Infrastructure Design
In this phase, we work with you to finalize a comprehensive cloud architecture design based on requirements that:
- Meets all security and compliance requirements
- All systems including access control, storage and integrated functions are managed in the cloud
- Improves Redundancy and Disaster Recovery plans, including high-availability, performance and RTO/RPO
Cloud Transition/Deployment
In order to safely migrate all resources to a new cloud solution, delaPlex generally follows a phased migration approach, with a priority order starting with the least critical, high savings, and low dependency assets.
Overall, we go to great lengths to ensure that dependent systems are not disrupted during the transition process.
Automation and DevOps
To minimize the cost of operations and increase cost savings, we incorporate automation at all possible points including auto scaling, alerts and more.
Our DevOps experts identify the right combination of processes and tools, coach your team, and help your organization adopt the strategy which suits you best .
