Cloud Migration

Providence monitors real time performance issues to speed up and streamline migration while mitigating risk, efficiently investing your resources and ensuring all teams are aligned on business-critical KPIs.

Overview

Understanding what cloud migration is, how it can benefit your business, and what is involved, will help you decide on the best strategy to achieve a smooth transition to the cloud. Providence's Cloud First helps you navigate complexity, from landing zones in the cloud continuum to regulating data sovereignty. We work with you to determine the right cloud strategy, operating model, roadmap, and ecosystem partners. We then help you accelerate migration and modernization to Cloud that is secure, cost-effective, and agile.

Cloud migration consulting encompasses business case creation, migration planning and design and can be followed by migration execution. It is aimed at boosting an app’s or a DWH’s performance, cutting OPEX, and unleashing the possibilities for evolution.

6 Incredible Cloud Migration Benefits

Cloud computing is a term that has gained widespread use over the last few years. With the exponential increase in data use that has accompanied society's transition into the digital 21st century, it is becoming more and more difficult for individuals and organisations to keep all of their vital information, programs, and systems up and running on in-house computer servers. The solution to this problem is one that has been around for nearly as long as the internet, but that has only recently gained widespread application for businesses.

Ensuring a Seamless Cloud Migration Process

As we commence the cloud migration journey together, it is critical to document the reason for migration and what difference it makes to the business. For this, Aspire, one of the best cloud migration service providers, conducts a cloud readiness assessment to document the complete state analysis and to create a standard migration plan. Our assessment involves evaluation of current workloads, infrastructure and server configuration, security and compliance concerns which aids in providing effective solutions for cloud migration support.

Having assessed and documented these details, we map them to their interdependencies in the applications and thus, formulate a customized migration plan. Being a leading cloud migration partner, we help businesses in a smooth transition from on premise to cloud or datacenter to cloud. Our application migration consulting services enable you to move your applications to the cloud for global reach, standardization and acceleration.

Challenges and Solutions of Moving to the Cloud

There are several issues to consider when attempting to implement cloud migration. Many organisations fail to adequately plan the move and end up facing unpredicted costs and delays. Some pitfalls to look out for are:

some organisations come to rely too heavily on a single cloud provider, which makes it difficult to switch to a new service.

if you don’t adequately plan your budget, your cloud operation costs can rise exponentially. If you fail to predict your future needs, you might not select the most cost-effective cloud solution.

managing cloud security can be challenging. If you rely exclusively on a public cloud, you have little control over the environment, because you share the same computing resources with other users.

Migrating your entire workload to the cloud can be time-consuming and technically complex. Some organisations don’t have the necessary know-how to implement it.

Some legacy applications are difficult to migrate, especially if you lack visibility into your legacy components, or if you don’t have a proper migration plan. For example, apps with a monolithic mainframe are harder to rehost.

Siloisation (lack of collaboration between departments) is a major obstacle to an agile work process. Development and business teams often view the security and technical aspects of migration as someone else’s responsibility, leaving the IT department, and this attitude can hinder a successful migration.
