Today's effective cloud strategy is not only about cost savings (including payback timelines) and compliances, but also about strategic goals of more controlled development and rapid innovation. To be the best in class, an organization needs to have both courage and a good strategic partner.

The cloud adoption challenges you should be aware of

Devil hides in details. When investing in cloud transformation, you should be aware of all the possible pitfalls to avoid all of them. We help our clients to uncover and take into account all of them. The most common pitfalls, from our perspective, are the following.
Choosing a сloud service provider

There are several critical parameters that you should consider before choosing cloud service providers. Is it possible to self-regulate virtual infrastructure parameters? What is the quality of the provider’s hardware? Do the failover parameters of data centers allow infrastructure maintenance without stopping the service? Is the provider liable for the violation of the SLA parameters, as well as what security options do they provide?

IT infrastructure inventory

Thorough inventory of your infrastructure, including physical network and IT hardware, software, and services is critical. Often, this facilitates migration and allows you to optimize the IT infrastructure, put it in order, redistribute processes and workloads. Without this, it will be challenging to make successful “moves”.

Migrating legacy apps and systems

Many modern business applications are initially designed to work in the cloud. But everything is not that easy with legacy software. Such systems may need to be re-engineered. It is necessary to draw up a detailed list of services you need to transfer to a cloud, the information systems associated with them, and the computing, network and storage resources required. In short, you need an accurate list of everything that needs to move to the cloud.

Ensuring network connectivity

A separate issue is network interaction between the client’s IT infrastructure and the provider’s cloud platform. You should take into account routing, addressing, bandwidth and reliability of communication channels, as well as information security (for example, the need for a VPN), horizontal (increase in the number of virtual machines) and vertical (increase in the capacity of a particular virtual machine) cloud scalability.

FAQ

How do I manage my data in the cloud?plus
First, you should choose your data residency - where you want your data physically located. The location of servers in a particular region may be dictated by the jurisdiction of your business or internal security requirements. You can also ensure the complete anonymity of user data for your system if there are business requirements for that. For any data extraction, you can always query your databases directly. For any other questions, we advise you to seek Unicsoft cloud strategy consulting services.

What should I consider when choosing a Service Provider?plus
In short, here are the main topics that you should evaluate when choosing a cloud provider:
  • Functionality
  • Billing
  • Technical support
  • Technical components
  • Reliability
  • Controllability
  • Network attack protection, object storage, hybrid cloud, data center-level redundancy - this is not a complete list of topics that need to be evaluated from a technical point of view. Unicsoft does cloud provider assessments as part of cloud strategy consulting to make sure you get the best service possible.

    Are there security guarantees?plus
    Every process the cloud provider controls and that the client cannot control is in the cloud provider's security responsibility. Everything that the cloud client controls and cannot be controlled by the cloud provider should be in the client's area of responsibility. In practice, there are additional factors:
  • The provider may offer additional services that require security or information security services.
  • "Gray zones". Services or technical solutions that are controlled by both the provider and the performer.
  • As a part of our cloud security consulting, Unicsoft helps businesses navigate both factors, ensuring the best cloud security practices are followed.
