Cloud and platform
modernization

Assessment through sustainment for federal cloud programs — including migration to and operation within FedRAMP-authorized cloud service offerings, proven in production at the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Customer Challenges

Migration is the easy part; operating well afterward is not

Agencies rarely struggle to stand up a cloud account. They struggle with what follows: workloads lifted without being sized, costs that climb without an owner, and a hybrid estate that now needs two operating models instead of one.

  • Aging on-premises infrastructure approaching end of support or lease.
  • Workloads migrated without right-sizing, producing avoidable recurring cost.
  • Applications too tightly coupled to their current environment to move safely.
  • Hybrid estates that require two operating models and duplicate tooling.
  • Cloud security posture that is not mapped to the controls the program owes.

Application & physical migration

Execution of both application-level and physical-to-cloud migrations into FedRAMP-authorized cloud service offerings.

Platform engineering

Landing zones, network and identity integration, infrastructure automation, and reusable deployment patterns.

Virtualization

VMware-based virtualization design, consolidation, and sustainment for on-premises and hybrid estates.

Optimization & sustainment

Right-sizing, reserved-capacity planning, cost reporting, patching, and ongoing platform operations after go-live.
