Cloud migration, easier said than done, comes with its own set of challenges in the ever-evolving tech world. The promise of lesser hardware and higher data safety on cloud-based platforms are lucrative enough to draw modern businesses into the tech loop of survival. However, financial concerns touch on almost every challenge of migration. Additionally, finding people who have the skills to manage a successful migration poses a genuine yet nontrivial problem. A report by McAfee found that the skills gap in cybersecurity is responsible for slowing cloud migration for 40% of IT professionals. Cloudreach, a leading independent cloud services company, identified these gaps in the cloud migration process and decided to step in and devise unique solutions that offer a new level of agility and efficiency to organizations. Cloudreach CEO Brooks Borcherding says, “After 12 years of collaboration with AWS, we’re excited to be entering this new phase of growth. Together, we’re focused on delivering the promise of the cloud through new software-driven capabilities coupled with industry best practices and expertise. For our customers, this will mean adopting AWS cloud more efficiently and with greater confidence, achieving a faster time to value.”
In association with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Cloudreach intends to accelerate enterprise cloud adoption through intelligent automation and help more customers realize the benefits of AWS services with far greater efficiency. This engagement will provide AWS and Cloudreach customers with compelling new SMART Migration and SMART Modernization service offerings to accelerate cloud adoption and dramatically reduce time-to-value by 40%. These new offerings leverage Cloudamize, leading planning, assessment, and migration automation software, and Sunstone, a cloud modernization machine learning engine, to make continuous modernization recommendations for legacy and cloud-deployed services.
Cloudreach had gained an unparalleled knowledge base in cloud technologies and how they can be applied to businesses to drive maximum productivity, profitability and growth. “This collaboration means AWS can bring the highest level of cloud-native expertise to an even wider audience with Cloudreach, significantly accelerating the pace of global cloud adoption.”
As a comprehensive cloud powerhouse, AWS has a plethora of benefits and features to offer, among which adaptability, security and cost-effectiveness tops the list. By providing a scalable infrastructure, amazon web services cover the core domains like computing storage, networking and databases and also takes care of configuring and managing platforms while at it. Additionally, AWS supports various API’s and SDK’s that gives you control over the resources used. However, if left unchecked, cloud sprawl can put a severe strain on your budget and ROI. That is why robust cloud governance should form an essential part of your strategy when planning your cloud migration.
Established in 2009, Cloudreach continues to help enterprises build new foundations for future growth through successful cloud transformation. They hold more than 1000 certifications across Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Microsoft Azure. Cloudreach has bagged multiple recognitions, including 2019 Consulting Partner of the year and 2019 EMEA Public Sector Partner of the year. Also, they have a dedicated strategy team backed with former CIOs and CTOs with deep experience in leading cloud transformations for enterprises across the globe.
Today, Cloudreach is on a mission to deliver the promise of cloud and drive extraordinary value for our customers. They help enterprises win a competitive advantage through successful cloud transformation. “Cloudreach is committed to addressing underrepresentation and the lack of diversity within the technology workforce and cloud industry. The purpose-driven investment is one of the most exciting aspects of this collaboration with AWS,” concludes Borcherding.
