Architecture and assessment
Review applications, data, connectivity and constraints to compare cloud, hybrid or continued use of existing infrastructure, without imposing a migration.
Cloud
Cloud starts with an architecture decision.
Moving an application does not, by itself, resolve its dependencies or operations. We review what should migrate, what should remain in place and how to prepare a transition with agreed responsibilities, tests and acceptance criteria.

What we can plan with you.
Phased migration
Define dependencies, prepare a pilot and agree on validations, change windows and a rollback plan before moving workloads.
Operations and control
Define identities, permissions, monitoring, backups and recovery. Establish responsibilities and review consumption according to the contracted scope.
From problem to operations
Clear decisions before each delivery.
- 01
Understand the environment
Inventory workloads and dependencies, classify data and agree on location, continuity, access and budget constraints.
- 02
Design the transition
Compare options, document responsibilities and define acceptance, recovery and rollback criteria for the change.
- 03
Validate a pilot
Test a bounded workload and verify integrations, permissions and recovery before deciding whether to expand the migration.
- 04
Transfer operations
Document the configuration and procedures; agree on monitoring, support and consumption reviews without assuming permanent service.
Deliverables
What needs to be defined.
Scope, responsibilities and delivery terms are specified in the project proposal.
- Inventory of workloads, dependencies and constraints
- Architecture design and agreed responsibilities
- Transition, validation and rollback plan
- Operations guide and recovery and consumption criteria
Illustrative scenario · not a client case
Assess the migration of an internal application
The situation
An application depends on a local server, a database and shared services. The team needs to assess its evolution without overlooking these connections.
One possible approach
The environment could be inventoried, alternatives compared and a pilot prepared with authorized test data. Moving to production would depend on validating integrations, permissions and recovery, and agreeing on the change and its rollback.
Application behavior, recovery tests and consumption could be evaluated against agreed criteria and budget. These are not achieved results or a promise of savings or availability.

Questions to define the project.
Must everything migrate to the cloud?
This is not assumed. The assessment may lead to keeping certain workloads, combining environments or migrating in stages according to their dependencies, constraints and operations.
How is the provider chosen and cost controlled?
Options are compared against defined requirements, separating project services from platform consumption. Account ownership, billing, limits and monitoring are agreed in the proposal; savings are not promised and vendor partnerships are not assumed.
Does it include ongoing support or guaranteed availability?
Not automatically. Hours, responsibilities, support, recovery objectives and service levels must be agreed. Backups and recovery require defined configuration and testing; using the cloud does not mean they are already resolved.
