Service Summary


Spectony can help you realize the benefits of moving to the cloud, ensuring delivery of a cost effective, high performing cloud solution, designed to security best practice, that aligns with your operational and business requirements.
High level and detailed designs will be created considering:
  • System availability and resiliency - the level of uptime, auto scaling and fault tolerance required.
  • Capacity - will the cloud infrastructure need to auto scale to meet unexpected demand.
  • Compliance and regulatory requirements - data compliance (infrastructure hosted in specific zones) or other regulatory compliance (such as PCI DSS for credit card payments).
  • Security - access controls to infrastructure components and hosted applications.
  • Real-time monitoring requirements - the importance of being able to monitor real-time usage of your environment.
  • Budget - ensuring Spectony delivers the most cost optimized solution for your business needs.
  • Compatibility requirements - hosting legacy applications.
  • Connectivity requirements - will off-site access be required via VPN.

Build Process

Once the design has been signed off by key stakeholders, Spectony will begin implementing the cloud offering with the core requirements, such as:

Implementation Plan

An implementation plan will be developed for your deployment. We will determine what type of implementation is required (phased, direct, parallel, etc). Also, we will determine the order and schedule of deployment that best meets the needs of your business.

Storage

Storage mechanisms wil be selected for your infrastructure based on performance and cost requirements.. The appropriate mix of file, blob and disk storage will be configured to meet your requirements.

Cloud Migration Image

Networks and Connectivity

Infrastructure will be configured to use the required number of public and private subnets. VPN connections will be configured if out of office access to these subnets is required. Network security groups and access control lists will be configured to restrict network access where required.

Cloud Migration Image

Compute Instances

Compute instances will be deployed in line with performance and cost requirements, ensuring the size and specifications of resources fit the business need.

Cloud Migration Image

Identity/Access Management

Access to resources will be configured using the principle of least privilege. Roles will be created and assigned to the relevant users ensuring access is only granted where there is a business need.

Cloud Migration Image

Monitoring

In-depth monitoring and alerting will be configured and implemented for your cloud infrastructure and applications using current best practice and tool sets.

Cloud Migration Image

Security

Industry standard security policies and best practices will be adhered to during the implementation process and will be built into your cloud platform.

Cloud Migration Image

Resiliency

Resources will be chosen to best suit your performance needs. Resources will be placed into auto-scaling groups, if necessary, to ensure your cloud platform can cope with unexpected demand and can self-heal in the event of failure.
