Overview

What are Cloud Professional Services?

Cloud adoption is complex and requires a new way of thinking.

Wherever you are on your cloud transformation journey, we’ll join you and simplify your path forward. Working alongside your team, we’ll help you understand your cloud strategy options, and develop and deploy cloud solutions that help you achieve better business outcomes.

Always-on and ready to seamlessly scale, our technical teams are here to manage any and every part of your cloud adoption journey. We’ll enable your engineering teams to move faster, experiment and learn, defining entire environments as if they were code. For our customers, the cloud is about building new revenue lines, improvements to business processes, and new business ideas to power the future.

Migration

For cloud migration, we’ll partner with you to deliver the expertise you need, so you can avoid common pitfalls and accelerate your return on investment. Our certified cloud migration consultants start by conducting a holistic assessment of your IT environment and business goals. We then create a customised cloud migration plan designed to support those goals. We’ll handle migration of your applications and workloads, so you can minimise your business risk, disruption, and downtime. After a successful migration, our experts can continue to work with you through our ongoing management and optimisation services.

Elastic Engineering Plus

When it comes to Elastic Engineering Plus, we provide you with on-demand access to a team of highly skilled engineers – collectively called a Pod – who are available to collaborate with your organisation to shape successful outcomes such as: planning and migrations to public cloud, architecture design and deployment, creation of automated CI/CD pipelines, improve security and reliability for your applications and manage your cloud environments across AWS, GCP and Azure.

Application Modernisation and Testing

Leverage a team of experts to successfully elevate your existing applications and unlock the power of cloud native development. Early cloud adoption approaches focused on migrating applications and infrastructure with minimal changes to the code or architecture. While these migrated workloads sometimes benefit from the elasticity and scale of the cloud, unlocking additional value requires modernising the application code and architecture to be more cloud native.

Cloud Architecture and Consultancy

Translate your business aspirations into future-proof technology choices, anywhere on your cloud journey. We offer highly sought-after expertise from practitioners, who deliver guidance, advice and best-practices and help customers to architect for innovation underpinned by modern technology.

Cloud DevOps

To remain competitive, you need to innovate, accelerate time to market, improve the quality and efficiency of application deployments and automate operations everywhere you can. DevOps models, processes and tools can help get you there. However, your own team may not have the time, experience or specialised skills required to implement DevOps transformation while meeting your everyday obligations. Our Cloud DevOps solutions will help you adopt a software-led, cloud-native approach to integrating business, operations, and development through automation, allowing for faster and more predictable business results.

FinOps

Our FinOps professionals will assess your current cloud environment and deliver a comprehensive set of reports and designs to help you optimise your setup, cut costs, and transform the way you work in the cloud– both now and in the future.
