Cloud strategy that pays for itself.
Expert guidance on public cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP), private cloud and hybrid strategies, from readiness assessment to migration and ongoing optimisation.
- Readiness assessment
- TCO and cost analysis
- Architecture design
- Migration execution
Vendor-neutralWhere the savings come from, and how long they take.
Most cloud overspend comes from the same few places: instances larger than the workload needs, resources left running, and architectures that were never sized properly. A readiness assessment takes two to four weeks and maps what you run today against what it should cost. The work typically pays for itself within three to six months.
From first assessment to ongoing optimisation.
Cloud readiness assessment
Infrastructure, apps and team readiness, dependencies, compatibility and migration complexity per workload.
Cloud strategy
Public, private or hybrid aligned to business goals, with a phased, low-risk roadmap.
Cost analysis and optimisation
TCO modelling, reserved and spot instances, right-sizing and auto-scaling.
Architecture design
Cloud-native, highly available reference architectures for your patterns.
Migration execution
Apps, databases and data moved with testing at every step.
Ongoing optimisation
Cost, performance and security tuned continuously.
The right model for each workload.
Public cloud
AWS, Azure or GCP for variable workloads and rapid scaling.
Private cloud
VMware, OpenStack or Kubernetes for full control, sensitive data and compliance.
Hybrid cloud
On-premises plus public cloud for flexibility and burst capacity.
Multi-cloud
Several providers to avoid lock-in and use best-of-breed services.

Questions we hear often
When should I hire a cloud consultant?
Planning a first migration, cloud spend above ₹50 lakhs a year, bills 2 to 3 times what you expected, complex legacy moves, compliance-heavy architecture, or a multi-cloud or hybrid plan.
How do you choose between AWS, Azure and GCP?
Your existing stack, the services you need, regional presence, pricing per workload, existing agreements and team skills. We are vendor-neutral.
What does the readiness assessment include?
Infrastructure inventory, dependency mapping, complexity scoring, TCO analysis, migration strategy, roadmap and risk list, delivered as a 40-60 page report.
