Business Challenge


In a recent survey, 58% of CIOs say cloud computing causes a radical shift in IT, and 47% say they are already using or actively researching it. They must choose from a dizzying array of public, private, and hybrid cloud designs based on fundamentally different ideas, such as infrastructure, platforms, or software as a service.

Business Benefit


We help streamline your migration to a cloud service delivery model, creating a strategy for managing:

 

  • Vendor Lock-in: Once hooked to one vendor, the perception is it is difficult to support another vendor.
  • Pricing: There are numerous clauses in a subscription model that allow providers to increase fees at a later date.
  • Service Level Agreements: Without carefully designed SLAs, you can find yourself at the mercy of your service provider.
  • Scalability Bottlenecks: Scalability is only as strong as the weakest link in the architecture.
  • Application Design: Cloud computing will bring a radical shift in how applications and services are designed. Several SOA best practices apply to designs that leverage cloud computing.
