Cloud Driven Company
Cloud Strategy
How to define a Cloud Strategy that support the vision of your company ?
“To support the digital transformation, your IT infrastructure needs to be redesigned”
Pushed by the presales, the technical teams (DEV & OPS) and the continuous cloud buzz on the market, companies think that the cloud is THE strategy to accelerate their digital transformation.
Decisions are often taken in a hurry without defining at minima principles and guidelines that could strongly help to avoid the following common errors:
What do we propose to help the companies to obtain a maximum return of the Cloud ?
We observe that the cloud initiative is often driven by the IT Team. This is not the right approach because the focus is often on the technical capabilities instead of the business outcomes.
To obtain the maximum return, you need to have a strong Business sponsorship driven by their own motivations.
Starting a cloud initiative without the Business value at its center is more than questionable and most of the time has a high failure rate.
What is our methodology ?
Our methodology is based on the principle “Divide and conquer”.
It is structured into 6 layers and inspired by the Agile Enterprise Architecture approach:
Strategy
Create a strategy roadmap based on the different stakeholders’ motivation and the CORS framework.
Apps Modernization
Define a roadmap to modernize based on the mapping between the capabilities of the enterprises and the applications and select the best modernization
DevSecOps
Put in place the 3Ps (People – Process – Platform) to define, optimize and automate the application development lifecycle by ingraining security
Service Catalogue
Customize the company product & service catalogue with the services provided by the cloud public.
Landing Zone
Implement and automate the standard rules formalized in the foundation, to create the landing zone(s)
Foundation
Define the standard rules for Resource Governance – Deployment Acceleration – Security Baseline and Identity Baseline – Cost Management
Thanks to this approach, we are able to iterate with little steps and
reconciliate the Business (Top-Down approach) and IT (Bottom-Up approach) expectations
