Google cloud Platform
ON THE WAY TO THE CLOUD, YOU NEED A COMPETENT PARTNER
The journey to the cloud can be full of surprises. With our help, you can make sure they're positive. We have mechanisms in place for every stage of your cloud journey.
-
Migration
It all starts with the need to do things better and on a better platform. Cloud2 helps you plan to migrate and rebuild your existing data centre environments to the cloud.
Cloud2's complete cloud management model and maintained landing zone solutions increase your ability to meet changing business needs quickly and reliably.
-
Development
Modern ways of developing environments make them more efficient. The DevOps culture and practices help significantly in this regard. With Cloud2, you get a flying start in the world of infrastructure-as-a-code (IAC).
Cloud2's Google Cloud expertise is primarily focused on GCP environments built with Cloud Run, Cloud Functions, Firestore, Firebase.
-
Governance
Managed cloud services give you the freedom to develop business-critical services while Cloud2 manages and maintains them.
MIGRATION
Cloud2's Cloud Migration consists of two different components. The first component is the discussion partwhich takes a look at the company's business, current state and processes. This is where the company's ability to go on a cloud journey is identified.
The second part is the more technical part, where the current IT environment of the company is mapped programmatically, and a Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) calculation of the cost of cloud migration is built based on the data.
-
Section 1: Mapping
We will map your company's readiness to move to the cloud, using a variety of mapping tools. The mapping will be discussion-based and will draw on industry best practices such as the Well Architected Framework, Cloud Adaption Framework, Digital Maturity Benchmark, etc.
-
Section 2: Analysis
You will receive an analysis of the current state of your business. You get black and white about where you are going, as well as an understanding of where there is still a journey to go from a technical, business and cultural point of view.
-
Section 3: Planning
Saat priorisoidun kehityssuunnitelman, arvion tärkeimpien kehityskohteiden toteutusmenetelmistä kustannuksineen, mahdollisine tukimalleineen sekä konkreettiset hyödyt eri kehityskohteiden vaikutuksista.
-
Section 4: Migration
The mechanisms designed and created during the mapping phase will be used to migrate systems according to the selected migration strategies.
In line with the customer-specific Cloud management model, the aim is to automate the creation of migrated environments using IAC tools such as Terraform.
-
Section 5: Optimization
After migration, we move on to the optimisation phase, which in practice continues throughout the lifecycle of the system. In line with the cloud management model, this means monitoring cost developments, exploiting potential new services as part of the system, etc.
DEVELOPMENT
CLOUD2 DELIVERS CLOUD ENVIRONMENTS ON A CONTINUOUS EVOLUTION MODEL USING DEVOPS METHODOLOGIES.
DEVOPS IS A COMBINATION OF POLICIES AND TOOLS THAT ARE FIT FOR PURPOSE.
It increases an organisation's ability to deliver applications and services at high speed: developing and improving products faster than organisations using traditional software development and infrastructure management processes. This speed enables organisations to better serve their customers and compete more effectively in the marketplace.
With our help, cloud development is guided by cloud best practices. We work closely with our client developers and partners.
-
Policies
Moving to DevOps requires a change in culture and mindset.
At its simplest, DevOps is about removing the barriers between two traditionally bridged teams, development and operations. With DevOps , these two teams work together to optimise both developer productivity and operational reliability.
A key role is played by communication, which is sought to be increased between the different teams. Organisations using the DevOps model, regardless of organisational structure, have teams that see the entire development and infrastructure lifecycle as part of their responsibility.
-
Tools
Building infrastructure in code is a key part of a managed cloud. It ensures continuous development, repeatability and automated documentation. This is done using either Terraform or the clouds' own IAC tools.
Dedicated CI/CD systems support an organisation's ability to develop quickly and efficiently.
GOVERNANCE
Cloud2's managed cloud services ensure that systems built in the cloud work and perform well.
-
Operation
We make sure that systems are always up to date. We make the necessary changes in line with service requests and interpret the information provided by our monitoring. Respond to incidents and restore the environment to a functional state.
-
Monitoring
24/7 monitoring of your environments using cloud native tools. Our monitoring ensures that nothing goes unnoticed.
-
Optimization
We continuously help our customers to optimise the efficiency and cost of their systems.
-
Spotter
Our Spotter service improves visibility into cloud costs, security and resources used.
In addition, Spotter increases the understanding of cloud sustainability by bringing visibility to the cloud's CO2 emissions.
