01Move
Cloud migration & setup
Planned migrations to Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud with minimal disruption to running systems, backed by a tested cutover plan.
- Azure and AWS account and tenant setup
- Workload and server migration planning
- Data transfer and validation
- Hybrid cloud and on-prem connectivity
- Cutover scheduling with rollback plan
Best for: Organizations moving on-prem infrastructure to the cloud, or consolidating multiple cloud accounts.
Typical timeline: Most migrations complete in 2–6 weeks depending on workload count and data volume.
02Shape
Infrastructure & architecture
Right-sized cloud architecture that balances performance, cost, and manageability for your workloads.
- Compute, storage, and network sizing
- Cost estimation and optimization review
- Azure/AWS landing zone setup
- Identity and access configuration
- Monitoring and alerting setup
Best for: Teams that need cloud infrastructure designed correctly the first time, not retrofitted later.
Typical timeline: Architecture design typically takes 1–3 weeks before deployment begins.
03Protect
Backup & disaster recovery
Automated backup and recovery planning so a lost server, deleted mailbox, or failed migration doesn't become a lost week.
- Cloud-to-cloud and on-prem backup
- Recovery point/time objective planning
- Disaster recovery runbooks
- Periodic recovery testing
- Retention and compliance alignment
Best for: Businesses that need a tested recovery plan, not just a backup job that's never been restored from.
Typical timeline: Backup and DR setup typically takes 1–2 weeks to configure and validate.
04Sustain
Ongoing cloud management
Continuous monitoring, patching, and cost review so your cloud spend and security posture don't drift over time.
- Monthly cost and usage review
- Patch and update management
- Performance monitoring
- Security configuration review
- Scaling recommendations as you grow
Best for: Organizations without in-house cloud engineers who still need proactive oversight.
Typical timeline: Ongoing management begins immediately after migration and continues monthly.
05Secure
Cloud security & compliance
Identity, encryption, and compliance controls layered onto your cloud environment so security keeps pace with growth instead of trailing behind it.
- Cloud security posture assessment
- Identity and access hardening (Entra ID/IAM)
- Encryption at rest and in transit
- Compliance mapping (ISO 27001, SOC 2, DPDP)
- Continuous security configuration review
Best for: Organizations that need cloud security tightened before or after migration, not bolted on as an afterthought.
Typical timeline: Security assessment and hardening typically takes 2–4 weeks depending on environment size.
06Scale
Hybrid & multi-cloud connectivity
Secure connectivity between on-premises systems and multiple cloud platforms, so workloads run wherever they make the most sense.
- Site-to-site VPN and ExpressRoute/Direct Connect setup
- Cross-cloud identity federation
- Workload placement strategy
- Network segmentation and firewalling
- Unified monitoring across environments
Best for: Businesses running workloads across more than one cloud, or keeping some systems on-premises by choice or regulation.
Typical timeline: Hybrid connectivity setup typically takes 2–5 weeks depending on network complexity.
