Increase Adoption, Streamline Migration, Management of Azure, AWS, GCP and PCF Clouds

Organizations undergoing digital transformations are looking for avenues to modernize, innovate, and adapt their application landscapes to the latest technology available on the big public cloud platforms, such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. One of the easiest and least expensive ways to migrate an existing VMware workload to the cloud is to take the workload as-is and run it on cloud-native resources, otherwise known as “Lift and Shift.”

Xoriant’s Lift and Shift / Re-hosting services accelerate migration of environments and data from on-premises to clouds, including backup, security, and patching configurations, with minimal disruption.

Scope:

• Discovery of VMware cloud environment
• Configuration of cloud environment accounts/projects (e.g. AWS/Azure/GCP)
• Creation of landing zone in cloud environment i.e. network topology, ACLs, security groups, gateways, routing tables, NAT tables, etc.
• Launch of instances in specific landing zones
• Attach necessary storage to cloud instance
• Migrate data to cloud instance
• Validate manually via UAT
• Final data migrations and cutover

The best thing an organization can do to prepare for any kind of disaster is to have a sound business continuity plan that includes rigorous business impact analysis and comprehensive documentation. It is also critical to establish realistic recovery time objectives (RTOs) and recovery point objectives (RPOs) so the plan is properly designed and executed to meet all your business goals.

Scope:

• Perform business impact analysis
• Determine RTO and RPO for each service/business application and LOB
• Form the ERT and define ERT internal/external communication processes and procedures
• Define and formalize disaster declaration process
• Review architectures, dependencies, data flow and backup and recovery procedures
• Provide recommendations report and roadmap to implement requirements for RTO and RPO
• Implementation of approved roadmap (independent SOW)

Scope: BCP DR Testing: (Independent SOW-2)

• Conduct a tabletop exercise and provide report and analysis
• Conduct BCP/DR dry run and provide report and analysis
