Landing zones as code, DevOps, operations and strangler-style modernisation on Alibaba Cloud.
At a glance
NGT designs and automates Alibaba Cloud landing zones as code, builds the DevOps pipelines and operations on them, and modernises applications slice by slice with a factory and strangler approach.
Resource Directory, one network hub and guardrails, deployed with Terraform or ROS templates.
NGT engineers earned eight Alibaba Cloud DevOps Specialty certifications in 2024.
A strangler approach moves routes one by one onto Container Service for Kubernetes.

Frequently asked questions
What customers ask first.
Landing zones designed and deployed as code, DevOps pipelines for infrastructure and applications, migration and modernisation, and operations with FinOps, CloudOps and SecOps practices. Mainframe and COBOL modernisation is led by FPT Software's legacy teams.
An API gateway sits in front of the legacy application. Each capability is rebuilt as a service and its route switched over, while data stays in sync. Users keep one address, and the old code retires once its last route has moved.
Alibaba Cloud's own: Server Migration Center for servers, Data Transmission Service for databases and Data Online Migration for files and objects. The landing zone is written in Terraform or Resource Orchestration Service templates.
They were earned in 2024 and are valid for two years, so most have lapsed or lapse by December 2026. Renewal and current validity are confirmed for each proposal.
Alibaba Cloud partnerships are held by FPT Software at company level. NGT claims none of its own; the current status is confirmed for each proposal.
