Cloud Migration Services
Flatiron Health is a healthcare technology and services company. Its goal is to accelerate cancer research, thereby, improve patient care. The firm understood that there were no facile means of sharing useful data of previous cancer patients in the U.S. So, they developed their technology on the AWS cloud to bring about a swift development in their oncology-data software.
And at present, Flatiron Health collaborates with over 260 oncology practices and other large academic research institutions, who leverage the company’s cloud-based system to manage their workflows and study more than 1.6 million cancer patients.
In this way, many businesses are migrating to the cloud, for its acclaimed benefits. And when you embrace our cloud adoption strategy, we would help you in moving your applications, data, and other business elements to the cloud computing environment.
Most of our customers leverage our cloud migration services, to host their on-premises applications and data from their local data center to the public cloud infrastructure, such as the AWS cloud. This way, they harness greater elasticity and productivity across their enterprise.
Assets
Resource Scalability
If you ought to upscale your onsite IT infrastructure, then you need to invest in additional hardware and specific software. However, with a cloud strategy in place, you could avail of computing resources on demand, foregoing the unnecessary expenditures in specific hardware and software. Once you leverage the computing resources over the internet, you can easily upscale or downscale, as per your changing business needs.
Data Security
These days, enterprises are moving their consumer and corporate data from their on-premise data centers to the cloud. This has facilitated the authorized users to access the data sans any physical machinery, making data more accessible and available to cater to improved solutions. And at the same time, cloud computing service providers, ensure that these colossal sensitive data are all kept secure by handling the security issues proactively and by updating security mechanisms regularly. And believe it or not, studies reveal that data stored in the cloud is much safer than when stored in onsite data centers.
Business Continuity
Leading cloud platforms ensure smart and cost-efficient disaster recovery solutions so that businesses need not invest in additional resources to set one up. Therefore, the cloud would pave the way for the implementation of a robust business continuity plan when the unforeseen takes place.
These benefits trigger many businesses to take a technological leap. However, like there are two sides to the same coin, there are certain challenges to the cloud migration process as well.
Hurdles
The Need for Reskilling
Without overcoming the constraints related to deeply skilled resources, it’s paradoxical to amass the full potential of cloud computing. Organizations must be ready to reskill and upskill their existing employees to empower them to access the data and applications running in the cloud.
The Need for Updation
Enterprise applications rely on a variety of third-party software components, which also have to be installed while moving an existing application to the cloud. Unfortunately, several third-party software components are obsolete or not cloud-ready. And this poses a great challenge in the cloud application migration.
The Need for Compatibility
Not all firms update their operating systems at regular intervals. A greater segment of the legacy enterprise applications might still be running on older versions of major operating systems. And this could lead to incompatibility while moving to the cloud, for many cloud platforms do not support these older versions. So, these applications must be run on the latest version of the OS before being migrated to the cloud.
Despite these challenges, cloud migration is a welcome move among businesses. Thanks to the agility and the accelerated features it offers. At CloudForti, we help our clients through a solid cloud adoption strategy to perform a seamless cloud migration process. We also ensure state-of-the-art security, governance, and compliance.
