Uniquely multicloud – Agencies are leaving the data center and they are either going from on premise to public cloud, from on premise to private cloud, or from outsourced cloud to outsourced cloud. They are not returning to the data center. No other managed services provider can accommodate both public and private cloud journeys. Our process also meets agencies where they are on a continuous journey of assessing, migrating, modernizing, and optimizing. Our services are categorized as multicloud, data, applications, and security.

Areas of expertise: 

Multicloud: Public, private, and hybrid;

Data: Modernization, artificial intelligence & machine learning, analytics & business insights;

Applications: Technical, functional, and development services for ERP, application modernization, cloud native, internet of things and edge, productivity;

Security: Security strategy and assessments, detection and response, monitoring and resolution, cloud native security, Zero Trust, and data protection

Use Cases:

Assess cloud readiness, migrate workloads, applications, and databases to cloud, optimize cloud spend, managed cloud operations, minimize risks and deliver outcomes faster with cloud.
