Why migrate to AWS Cloud?
Transforming with AWS Cloud helps enterprises unlock new paths for growth and innovation. The pay-as-you-go model reduces infrastructure costs, allowing businesses to optimize their resources and respond to market demands swiftly. With AWS’s advanced services, one can accelerate time-to-market, deliver personalized customer experiences using AI and analytics, and streamline operations for maximum efficiency. AWS Cloud’s security and compliance tools protect sensitive data and address regulatory requirements with confidence. Furthermore, robust disaster recovery (DR) solutions ensure 24×7 availability, eliminating disruption to business.
Brillio’s approach to readiness assessment and recommendations
Preparation and planning
Brillio kicks off the project by onboarding resources and aligning stakeholders on the way forward. The team collects inputs through questionnaires to understand the client’s business vision and objectives. Additional documents, such as server utilization reports, CMDB, and licensing inventories, are gathered to ensure preparedness.
Discovery
Brillio’s team conducts workshops and strategic discussions to identify dependencies between applications, databases, and infrastructure. At this point, the team analyzes and assesses migration implications, licensing requirements, and technical challenges. These insights help align the technical goals with the overall business objectives and AWS migration needs.
Assessment and analysis
Brillio examines the technical considerations for server and database migrations, covering schema migration, data transfer methods, and synchronization techniques. We estimate the financial benefits of AWS migration and address security controls and compliance requirements. We then draft recommendations for instance sizing and cost optimization.
Recommendation and roadmap
The team finalizes the migration roadmap, validating timelines and dependencies. Business benefits and project charters are provided, and stakeholders across business areas are aligned. The engagement concludes with an executive summary and stakeholder sign-off.
Assessment methodology
Brillio uses a mix of tool-based (MAP Toolkit, SMART Tool, Cloudamize), questionnaire-based (codified assessments, Digital Index™), and interview-based (business stakeholders, technology SMEs) approaches to gather insights and provide robust recommendations.
