Cloud
Engineering
77% of organisations have adopted a hybrid cloud approach... yet in 69% of these companies their teams lack proficiency in managing cloud applications (IBM, 2022).
Proven solutions to cloud challenges
Network, identity, security, data fabric, automation and management layers all present unique challenges. Empyrean’s team is committed to being at the forefront of this technology – and helping you succeed, too.
Cloud and DC Roadmaps
- Identify cloud migration opportunities through infrastructure and applications assessment.
- Develop a strategic roadmap for transitioning to the cloud.
- Define cloud adoption criteria and evaluate cloud service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS).
- Determine the optimal data centre strategy, considering cost, scalability, and compliance requirements.
- Analyse workload dependencies and design a migration plan to ensure minimal disruption.
- Establish governance and security frameworks.
Hybrid and Multi-Cloud Architecture & Implementation
- Determine hybrid/multi cloud suitability with a current infrastructure and applications assessment.
- Optimise performance and costs – on-premises, public cloud, and/or private cloud.
- Implement secure and reliable connectivity solutions, such as VPN or direct links.
- Simplify hybrid and multi-cloud environments with cloud management and orchestration tools.
- Implement governance and security measures to ensure compliance, data protection, and access control.
Cloud Architecture Reviews
Review your existing cloud architecture to identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement, such as:
- Scalability
- Performance
- Security
- Efficiency
- Reliability
Cost Optimisation
- Assess your current cloud infrastructure and identify areas for optimisation.
- Analyse your workload patterns and resource utilisation to determine the right sizing and scaling options for your cloud environment.
- Leverage cost-effective services and technologies, such as reserved instances or spot instances.
- Implement automation and orchestration tools to streamline deployment and management processes.
- Optimise cost controls through cost monitoring and reporting mechanisms.
Cloud Migrations to AWS, Azure, and GCP
- Assess your existing infrastructure and applications to determine their suitability for migration to AWS, Azure, or GCP.
- Develop a migration plan, including the sequencing and dependencies of migrating applications and data to the cloud.
- Replicate or migrate your infrastructure and data to the selected cloud platform.
- Reconfigure and optimise your applications to leverage the services offered by the target cloud platform.
- Test and validate the migrated applications and infrastructure to ensure functionality, performance, and security.
- Post-migration support and optimisation.
