Cloud is critical for digital transformation to enable maximum flexibility, efficiency, scalability, and security. However, many organizations struggle with cloud complexity, leading to delayed or misaligned transformation projects.
Our perspective will guide you through cloud complexity to create successful digital transformation journeys.
Organizations face a series of operational and business hurdles with their cloud deployments.
From private cloud to hybrid cloud to multi-cloud and more, the options can be overwhelming.
Which applications and data should be migrated and modernized? What are the priorities? What’s the optimal way to integrate with other ecosystem participants?
Digital transformations typically happen at scale, with infrastructure deployed for each application as it is migrated—requiring specialized skills and experience.
Cloud operations differ dramatically from data centers, and many organizations are dominated by hardware-centric staff focused on traditional IT.
Continuous infrastructure and process improvement, as well as application optimization, is critical but daunting in multi-cloud environments.
Cloud adds to the already significant complexity of security, as it becomes a shared responsibility among cloud providers, tool providers, and the business itself.
Despite these challenges, organizations can succeed in cloud-driven digital transformation if they commit to and invest in:
Software is at the heart of cloud infrastructure. Organizations need people to make new, increasingly complex technology choices with the future in mind. They need teams with the know-how to build optimize and operate service-oriented software environments.
Organizations require tools, frameworks and resources to accelerate and automate infrastructure and application modernization. Without these assets, even the best expertise and experience will fail to deliver the expected outcomes.
Organizations must know how to efficiently create, launch and manage multi-cloud infrastructure and applications, while incorporating and connecting the right capabilities from all major cloud providers to deliver a seamless and secure experience.
General knowledge is not enough. Organizations need to tailor solutions to meet the unique needs of their business and industry by integrating Digital Engineering expertise with domain knowledge.
Organizations actively investing in digital engineering, intellectual property, multi-cloud expertise and deep domain knowledge are creating real, measurable business value.
In banking, a global payments leader using Google Cloud Platform accelerated dispute resolution and fraud detection while cutting infrastructure maintenance requirements by up to 50%.
In healthcare, a leading biotechnology company reduced the time and cost of developing new medicines with a clinical study data lake on AWS that uncovers as much as 30% of previously missing data.
In software and hi-tech, an events and incentives management company modernized its core product using Azure to cut infrastructure operation costs by 55% and boost service speeds for an 89% increase in Net Promoter Score.
From determining the optimal cloud strategy for an organization’s specific needs to providing ongoing operational guidance, our advisory capabilities help ensure a roadmap for digital transformations that are successful and sustainable.
Software engineering is our heritage. We apply our unmatched expertise to develop cloud-native software through tested digital engineering techniques, including unique intellectual property-based tools, and automation to accelerate the development process.
We bring legacy applications and associated data to cloud environments with the latest advances in software engineering. Leveraging our unique tools and frameworks, we can migrate to one cloud or multiple in accordance with an organization’s objectives, strategy and requirements.
We identify security gaps specific to cloud environments and applications, and offer guidance on third-party solutions to fill them. We also provide tools to help organizations adhere consistently to all governance and regulatory requirements related to their cloud infrastructures.
We streamline, automate and optimize how organizations operate their cloud environments for maximum transparency, efficiency and reliability, whether they’ve implemented a single, hybrid, or multi-cloud strategy.
When it comes to selecting cloud technology, our decisions and recommendations are based on what’s best for our clients, leveraging our extensive experience with all the major platforms. In fact, we’ve organized our cloud practice into business units aligned with the largest providers in the business:
Our methodologies are grounded in our rich digital engineering heritage, spanning 30+ years of client partnerships — including more than a decade of building cloud-native applications, modernizing workloads and optimizing cloud operations. Our skills are enhanced by years of experience not only working with AWS, Google, Azure and IBM platforms, but actually building important components of them. And as a truly global company, we’re always where our clients need us to be.
Digital transformation demands working with a partner that brings together the right people, processes and technical know-how for successful cloud deployments — one that can build cloud infrastructure, migrate and modernize apps and data, optimize operations and fully secure it all. That’s where we come in.
