Cloud & Infrastructure
Everyone makes backups. Few ever practise restoring them.
Designing and building the infrastructure that applications and employees need, and migrating to the cloud where useful. The result is documented, monitored infrastructure with tested backup and recovery.
Usual
What you often get
The cloud move by the book: everything gets shifted as it is, and the monthly bill grows. Next to it stands a server cabinet nobody wants to touch any more. And the knowledge of all the logins sits in one person's head.
IntoOps
What you get from us
Every application gets its own decision: cloud, own server or switch it off, with costs compared side by side. Recovery is rehearsed, not just planned. If you like, our IT operations & support team takes over day-to-day running, with the same documentation.
Service components
5 components. Each one available on its own.
-
Cloud readiness, target platform and migration of workloads.
-
Networks, servers, storage and cloud resources.
-
Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, devices and collaboration tools.
-
CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code and deployment automation.
-
Backup concept, recovery tests and emergency plans.
What you'll have at the end. Results you can check.
- An inventory of all servers, services and accounts with costs and responsibilities.
- A migration plan per application, with sequence, fallback and acceptance test.
- A recovery test with a log of what was back up, and how fast.
- Network and permissions documentation that another provider can work with too.
- Cost monitoring for cloud services, with budget limits and alerts.
- Automated deployment for your software, documented and traceable.
When you need this. And how you'll know.
- The server in the basement is ageing, and nobody wants to decide what comes next.
- The cloud bill rises every month, and nobody knows exactly what for.
- A new site needs workplaces, network and access, and soon.
- You don't know whether you'd get your data back after an outage or attack.
Rarely alone. Never bundled.
Cloud & Infrastructure often works together with these services. We'll tell you honestly when a combination makes sense, and when it doesn't.
Shows up in these initiatives.
You don't need a whole initiative to get Cloud & Infrastructure. These examples show where the service is often needed.
Good questions. Straight answers.
Will the cloud be cheaper than our own servers?
Not necessarily. In the cloud, hardware and part of the maintenance go away, but ongoing fees come in. What pays off shows in a comparison per application, which we do before every migration.
Is the cloud more secure than our own servers?
Not automatically. Security comes from configuration, permissions, updates and monitoring, wherever things run. That's why we plan infrastructure and cybersecurity together, in the same team.
Will our data stay in the EU?
If that's your requirement, yes. We choose providers and regions to match your requirements on location and data protection, and document where which data is stored.
Do you set up workplaces and devices too?
Yes. Email, file storage, collaboration tools and devices are set up consistently, with permissions by role. That way every workplace looks the same and is easy to replace.
Proof first. Contract second.
In the free Initiative Check, we listen for 45 minutes and ask the questions that usually only come up after the contract is signed. Then you get a short written assessment: what we see, how we would go about it and roughly what it would take.
No obligation. And if we're not the right fit, we'll tell you.
