Optimization of Cloud for a Business Transformation

When it comes to Innova Solutions’ service, the company has a unique capability to approach its clients’ project from an application-centric or an infrastructure-centric perspective. For Cloud Transformation services, the company offers excellent migration tools and repeatable and consistent implementation processes to produce predictable outcomes, lower operational risks, and improve IT efficiencies. Innova Solutions’ Cloud Transformation Services comprise Cloud Readiness assessment, Cloud Enablement Strategy and Cloud Migration. Through Readiness assessment, Innova Solutions understands its clients’ existing infrastructure and technical requirements. The Cloud Readiness Assessment is a standard process, toolset and questionnaire we use to evaluate how prepared a client’s environment is for a move to the Cloud. In addition, the company’s Cloud Optimization Assessment is a similar process for clients that have already migrated either in whole or in part to the Cloud. It conducts an audit and compares the client’s AWS environment with best practices while performing consistency check. This helps enterprises to ensure that resources are being utilized cost effectively and configured properly.

Innova’s Cloud Enablement process helps create, deploy and operate some or most of its clients’ IT infrastructure, software and resources through the cloud. For the migration to AWS, the lift and shift method is used by Innova Solutions. This approach helps to create a virtualized copy of the data center within the AWS environment which usually makes few architectural changes. Additionally, the company incorporates core AWS functionality into its solutions such as Virtual Private Clouds (VPC) and Direct Connect, which enable enterprises to migrate their current environments into the AWS Cloud to operate a hybrid environment in a secure way. CloudWatch, is an AWS capability that allows enterprises to integrate monitoring and resource management with their current toolsets, which permits Innova Solutions’ Managed Operations team to create a unified view over the whole of its client’s computing resources, from both on-premises and the Cloud. Innova Solutions has invested in creating its own Nephele Technical Operations Platform to provide services in monitoring, management and DevOps capabilities to realize the complete benefits of either migration or transformation from the first day itself.

An equally significant aspect of Innova Solutions is its excellent team of certified Amazon Engineers who design and build highly reliable and scalable AWS based enterprise IT platforms. As enterprises demand either comprehensive assistance for Cloud transition or managing operations in Cloud and hybrid configurations, Innova Solutions offers client focused approach to fulfil their business requirements. We dedicate a percentage of our time and effort to ensure that our IP and approaches continue track to the AWS road map. This enables us to keep providing the most effective solutions and the greatest value to our clients. The company’s ultimate goal is to empower its clients to embrace new service models and derive the complete business value for their IT investments through cloud technology. It envisages an impressive future for Cloud technology.
