WHAT IS A cloud iNFRASTRUCTURE ASSESSMENT?
Infrastructure Intelligence: Unveiling the Inner Workings
We developed our Cloud Infrastructure Assessment to help businesses identify key areas for improvement, ensuring that they gain the most value from their cloud infrastructure. Our cloud architects and engineers will assess your cloud infrastructure and architecture against industry best practices, with the aim of helping you ensure that they are well-architected.
OUR cloud INFRASTRUCTURE ASSESSMENT APPROACH
What Happens During The Assessment?
At a high level, the assessment consists of 5 phases:
We will align expectations and determine which areas you want us to focus on. It’s an opportunity to better understand your business and how you use technology, as well as your current pain points and future goals.
A set of collaborative sessions between the Deimos team and your key team members. The aim is to get a better understanding of your infrastructure architecture in order to set us up for success in the next phase.This phase often consists of multiple sessions, each with a core focus (such as networking, computing, CICD, security, etc)
Our team of experts assesses your current state against industry best practices. Our aim is to identify areas of significant impact. We are looking to increase your platform’s effectiveness.
We compile our findings into a well-written report that includes recommendations on addressing the issues we raise.
We will review the report together. Our team will explain our findings in detail and facilitate the building of a roadmap to implement recommendations that are aligned with your goals.
