Cloud Migration: 1-week Assessment

This service includes 1 week of discovery and analysis of your present IT infrastructure, as well as a report outlining an Azure migration strategy and suggestions.

Organizations will acquire an understanding of the technical and commercial viability of a shift to Azure as part of this assessment.

As part of the exercise, Platingnum will:

• Check and assess your infrastructure, application & data to decide the best fit services based on strategic business needs.
• Create a report that shows which workloads should be migrated to Azure on an urgent basis and which require further research.
• Provide commercial information as a result of the Azure migration.

Steps Involved

• Determine the project’s objectives, key stakeholders, time and financial constraints.
• Collaborate with the client team to obtain an accurate picture of the present status.
• Compile the needs for data security, retention, compliance, and geolocation limits.
• Successively develop the project’s ultimate state for migration/modernization.
• Gap analysis of skill and knowledge in the client team and develop a training and outsourcing strategy.
• Create a transition strategy that is consistent with ongoing business activities, the present state, and the planned architecture.
• Carry out a security and compliance audit of the plan and make any necessary changes.
• Create a transition plan to ensure that your business activities are not interrupted.
• Form a team to manage and deliver the project transition.
