Strategic Cloud Transformation: A Comprehensive Case Study on Docupace's Journey with Trianz

THE BUSINESS CHALLENGE

• Understanding and estimating potential cloud consumption

• Plan with milestones for progressive transition to AWS

• Cloud end-state design for each platform with-in the portfolio

• Impact of change per platform

• Roadmap and effort estimates required to migrate or modernize.

• Optimized posture of security, operations, DevOps with cost-saving

THE APPROACH

• Software-driven discovery of the infrastructure supporting current platform.

• Top-down analysis of their platform portfolio to understand the R pathway for each platform and components.

• Cloud compatibility analysis for current security, operations, and DevOps

• Perform required cost estimation for cloud-native services.

• Licensed optimization - eliminate hardware-dependent (ECS) or vendor solutions (Graylog) in favor of cloud-native services (S3 and CloudWatch)
