Accelerating business outcomes in the Cloud

Today, with a prominent focus on application modernization, many corporations are migrating their applications from an on-premise data center to the Cloud.

OUR APPROACH

Why CBTS?

Innovations in virtualization, containerization, and dozens more cloud-native technologies make the Cloud an attractive prospect. But if you haven’t migrated on-premises apps before, you can miss out on many of these opportunities. Moreover, the learning curve of a cloud migration can throw an inexperienced team off course and trigger costly delays.

With decades of experience designing, provisioning, optimizing, and managing data centers for enterprise clients, CBTS has deployed thousands of workloads to the Cloud. Our developers have a rich portfolio of cloud-migration projects to their credit, covering every phase of a project—from discovery through implementation.

  • Analyze and review cloud adoption framework
  • Identify on-premises applications and IT infrastructure
Build-out planning
  • Establish application migration as a priority for architecture design and project plan
  • Identify critical roles, develop timeline and application migration process and procedures
Migration execution
  • Execute secure application migration
  • Perform all necessary testing of the new environment, including DR
Transition to operations
  • As-built architecture diagrams

Regulatory requirements, security protocols, and data integrity policies have a wide-ranging impact on app migration plans. Our cloud migration services provide the opportunity to identify flaws and harden defenses, ensuring you address each of them effectively.

“Because cost savings is one of the core benefits of migrating to the Cloud, you need to manage your project scope and budget carefully. You can’t afford to let cost overruns undermine the appeal of sending apps to the Cloud.”

Transdev_first_transit_case_study_logo.png

First Transit, now a part of Transdev, is a leading provider of mobility solutions in North America. It transports over 300 million passengers annually and provides operational support and management for 300+ locations in 41 states, four Canadian provinces, and Puerto Rico, serving transit authorities, states, municipalities, universities, and private companies.

Problem

After a series of acquisitions and growth periods, First Transit felt growing pains, with mission-critical applications and business processes becoming overburdened. The organization needed comprehensive modernization efforts, including migrating the entire enterprise’s catalog of services and applications to a cloud platform.

CBTS solution

CBTS was able to assess First Transit’s entire application portfolio and map out a modernization strategy specifically customized for the client’s goals and requirements—resulting in a multi-cloud data environment built for Microsoft Azure functionality. CBTS designed, modernized, and migrated the applications, which included Windows-based applications and database servers with integration to reporting services in another Azure subscription.

Outcome

First Transit fully modernized its application catalog, boosting customer satisfaction while laying the groundwork for future expansions. The First Transit IT team can now install application updates on a virtual machine, which is then accessed seamlessly by the riders on the client’s shuttles, trains, and buses. This process has the added benefit of simplifying application deployment and patch management.

Aligning migration with business objectives

A cloud app migration must square with your company’s mission. You have to ensure the migration advances priorities like improving cash flow or elevating customer service. Moreover, you don’t want it to interfere with essential business processes. You’ll also want to ensure it folds into your overall digital transformation strategy.
