Designed for organisations without a clear cloud migration path, the cloud assessment service can help you clearly understand the cost of your existing IT investment, evaluate options for migration to IaaS, PaaS and SaaS services, and build business case/procurement material that can help you get there faster.
The service can be tailored to deliver just the specific items that your organisation needs.
Migrate critical business systems and entire datacentres from legacy silos to a new secure, hybrid multi-cloud platform.
We will interview key business and technical stakeholders and deploy tools in your infrastructure to ensure we understand the criticality of your applications and how they interact with each other. Workloads can then be migrated in the right order, to the right platform and sized appropriately, ensuring all the benefits of a true hybrid, multi-cloud strategy.
This service is designed for customers who have already migrated legacy technology to the cloud or for customers who have been using the cloud for a while but are yet to realise the full benefits it can provide.
UKCloud consultants will undertake an assessment of your cloud environment focussing on commercial, technical and security characteristics, then develop and execute work packages that deliver operational efficiency and cost savings.
Cloud-native applications fully utilise features such as auto-scaling, message queues, object storage and containerisation.
Using these services often requires a radically different approach to application development and deployment, this service provides the expertise to ensure your project goes smoothly and your team are ready to adopt new ways of working.

It is possible to classify files to a highly granular degree, however, at this stage typical data classes may include:
Once identified, you can then manage data classes in accordance with the relevant policy, including parameters such as how long a file should be retained and what level of classification it is required to be stored at.
Organisation’s should document retention rules for all types of data to remain compliant with regulations such as GDPR and their own sector legislation. This assessment stage defines up to three candidate policies that can be applied to the sample files identified during the previous phase.
Policies may include:
Whilst phases 1 and 2 of the data assessment will allude to the data volumes that are apparent within a business, this information will be used to inform storage architecture decisions such as:
During this phase, the data assessment team considers the current data landscape alongside future requirements for data in the organisation and proposes a high-level target architecture. This proposal will cover matters such as:
The architecture and technology choices will inform the business case and the activity timelines for delivering a transformation plan. Include within this phase of the assessment are:
The final stage of the assessment considers how files may be governed moving forward. Key outputs from this phase include:
