Context & Objectives
The client has a CCoE and has been using the public cloud for several years, with an established Cloud First/SaaS First policy. The strategic plan of the Group's IS is oriented towards a majority presence in the public cloud within 5 years:
- Formalize IS transformation objectives and specify the associated business and IT benefits
- Formalize the objectives for rationalizing the Group's hosting infrastructures and application base and anticipate the migration path towards the defined target
- Estimate the expenses required to move to the Cloud as well as the anticipated gains, and justify the transformation to the business
Approach
Support the Group IT, ITD and Shared Infrastructure teams on the following topics:
- Specify our client's Cloud transformation ambition
- Determine the strategic Cloud hosting target for our client's application portfolio and the organizational and practice transformation target
- Apply the go2cloud framework to determine the workstreams and the roadmap
- Define an intermediate level for the applications and define a first migration step
- Recommend the transformation of the IS architecture to move towards an open and secure IS
