Cloud Transformation

Cloud Transformation, End to End

Assessed on evidence, landed on a foundation, moved in waves, run from the first day.

A whole programme on one page. FleziLift and NGT's architects read the estate and plan the waves; the landing zone is built from code as Wave 0; the cloud's own tools replicate servers and databases and cut them over; monitoring, backup, patching and cost reports are on before the first cutover.

When to use it

  • A data-centre exit, a licence renewal or an end of support sets the date
  • An estate that needs a plan before anyone can price the move
  • A customer who wants the same team to move the estate and run it

Where FleziLift fits

FleziLift does the Assess and plan band: the AS-IS inventory graded by evidence, a 7R path per server from written rules, and the wave plan with its Go / No-Go rules. Architects sign each step; the cloud's own tools do the moving.
