Cloud Computing & Services
Cloud computing has the potential to revolutionize IT by offering cost-effective, flexible capacity and immediate access to resources and services. But there are risks involved.
Capgemini has developed an approach to help you understand and overcome these risks to unlock the full potential of cloud computing.
Combining Forces to Support Transformation
Capgemini’s global Infostructure Transformation Services (ITS) team brings together experts from Capgemini Consulting, Technology Services, Outsourcing Services and Sogeti.
These teams are supported by 6,000 certified architects and engineers, and more than 7,200 staff from our global Infrastructure Outsourcing practice. Together, they deliver cloud services solutions such as Capgemini Immediate by pooling extensive expertise in core enabling technologies, including:
- Identity and access management
- Service management
- Service-oriented architecture
- Risk management and compliance
We recently used this expertise to support a prestigious fashion retailer’s move to the Amazon Web Services cloud platform. Our onshore team and Cloud Center of Excellence in India designed and implemented a tailored solution, resulting in:
- Faster speed to market
- Shorter development cycles
- Scalability
- Significant cost reductions
Tapping into the Power of a Revolution
By boosting standardization, flexibility and business model innovation, cloud computing is changing the competitive landscape and lowering barriers to new entrants on a global scale.
Thanks to cloud computing, it is now far easier to set up the infrastructure needed to launch a new business. Relying on no more than a fast, reliable Internet connection, you can instantly access a full range of on-demand business services and benefit from:
- Shortened transformation and performance gaps requiring IT support
- Reduced cost and time-to-market for website launches
- Instant access to shared resources and pay-per-use services
- Flexible, automatic scaling to optimize the user experience
- The ability to test new applications and services without costly start-up investments in software licenses and hardware
A Phased Approach to Transformation
Capgemini’s global ITS team relies on industry-standard methodologies such as Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) and self-developed tools including TMap® (Test Management Approach). We guide the development of your unique roadmap to cloud computing and support your transformation through several stages, or tracks, that include:
- Business Track: business strategy alignment interviews, cloud opportunities, total cost of ownership (TCO) estimation interviews and workshops, cloud business case justification report
- Technology Track: interviews and “application attribute” cluster workshop, future environment architecture workshop
- Planning Track: migration roadmap review workshop, proof-of-concept planning meetings
- Final Report & Sponsor Approval
