Cloud Modernisation
Evolve existing applications and other workloads to ensure they are geared up for optimum performance in the cloud.
A pragmatic approach to cloud adoption
Simply being in the cloud won’t unlock the benefits of the cloud. Any workload undergoing migration needs operability and infrastructure improvements to reduce total cost of ownership, enhance security and improve organisational agility. This modernisation can happen during the migration itself or after a ‘lift and shift’. Either way, it requires specialist skills and a deep knowledge of the target environment.
We’ll prime your workloads for the cloud
Our AWS and Azure specialists are well-versed in cloud modernisation. They determine the best strategy to optimise performance and ROI for individual applications or any other workload, setting priorities based on your budget and needs. Proven DevOps methods such as pipelines and platforms are used to achieve goals ranging from cost reduction to improved agility. Whatever you want to achieve, our engineers will unpick the most complex challenges and set you up for success.
Containerisation
Improve operability without a full rebuild. Our engineers are highly skilled at containerising workloads for effective deployment on AWS and Azure. We work with cloud providers’ own container technologies or open-source solutions to deliver the best possible outcomes.

Continuous Delivery Pipelines
Applying the DevOps principle of automation to infrastructure engineering takes reliability, efficiency and security to a higher level. CD pipelines offer a fast-track to modern ways of working that make the most of cloud’s ability to enhance quality and productivity.

TFS to Azure Migration
Moving from TFS to Azure is complex and risky. To enable frictionless migration, our engineers first examine TFS source control, templates and customisations. Then they move the right code in the correct format with any necessary customisations applied in the Azure environment.

Leverage cloud capabilities while reducing risk
Improve cost management
Modernisation helps avoid problems that increase cloud costs, such as overprovisioning. It’s also an opportunity to use tagging for better visibility.
Boost productivity
Applying automation to infrastructure engineering enables systems to scale on-demand and gives teams more capacity for meaningful work.
Enhance security
Evolving workloads destined for the cloud presents opportunities for alignment with security best practice outlined in Well-Architected Frameworks.
Address technical debt
General performance issues can be exacerbated in the cloud. Modernising workloads during or soon after migration mitigates this risk.
