Every organization follows a unique path to cloud adoption. However, our fundamental stages of implementing a secure methodology remain consistent across industries. Define, plan, implement, adopt, govern, manage, and secure.
While cloud technology isn’t a novel concept, this Framework presents fresh avenues for both business management and technological advancement. It offers a wealth of tools and guidance. Not just for the adoption of cloud technologies, but also for instigating crucial business, personnel, and procedural transformations. By embracing cloud technology with assurance and oversight, you can confidently navigate your cloud adoption journey.

7 Stages Framework
Define
We gain insights into your cloud economics and give financial and technical guidance to refine your cloud strategy. And then construct a compelling business case. Together, we clarify your business objectives to ensure alignment with your motivations. After that, we craft your business case and develop a financial model to forecast the business ramifications of your cloud adoption strategy.
Plan
We compile a comprehensive inventory of your workloads, applications, data sources, virtual machines, and other IT assets. Then, we assess them to identify optimal cloud hosting solutions. In the next step, we develop your cloud adoption strategy by prioritizing workloads according to their business significance and technical intricacy. Lastly, we establish and execute a skills readiness strategy to outline support requirements. We bridge existing gaps and equip your business and IT personnel for the upcoming transitions and emerging technologies.
Implement
We teach you how to construct your landing zones using the possible paths. Also, we help you find the tools you need to set up your cloud environment.
Adopt
Let’s concentrate on transitioning existing on-premises applications to the cloud through a gradual, step-by-step approach. This approach involves initiating a limited-scale cloud migration effort. To then gradually expand to migrate additional workloads as insights are gained from the initial experience, and migration processes are refined. We help you modernize your digital infrastructure to foster business and product innovation. Contemporary methodologies in infrastructure deployment, operations, and governance are swiftly narrowing the divide between development and operations.
Govern
We assess your organization’s transformation progress and monitor governance evolution. On top of that, we get you tailored recommendations to address identified gaps utilizing the governance benchmark tool. Next, we establish an initial governance framework through a governance MVP (Minimally Viable Product). Integrating key cloud governance principles such as cost management, security baseline, resource consistency, identity baseline, and deployment automation. Let’s also identify business risks and risk tolerance levels. Eventually, we mitigate these risks through governance and compliance policies. And institute regular governance procedures to oversee policy compliance.
Manage
To us, monitoring consists of a range of tasks. It starts with initiating data collection and establishing the operational baseline. Followed by triggering alerts, monitoring service metrics, and producing SLAs. As for management, let us identify vital business operations, align operations with services, and assess service interdependencies. To then develop top-level perspectives for service dashboards. By resiliency, we mean implementing a resilient platform and optimizing resiliency investment for appropriate protection levels. That way, we achieve quick recovery from failures with minimal downtime and data loss and progressing toward a highly available platform.
Secure
We incorporate security insights into our risk management framework and digital endeavors. Additionally, we guarantee the continued operability of your organization during attacks, swiftly restoring full operational status. Moreover, we safeguard sensitive data and systems while continually discovering, classifying, and securing assets.
