The Challenge Of Project

Cost Management: Balancing VMware licensing and AWS pricing complexity.

Data Security: Risks from inconsistent access controls and manual policies across VMC, AWS, and Azure.

Scalability: Static scaling methodology on VMC with very limited dynamic resource management.

Complexity to stitch together networking and security across VMware, Azure, and AWS.

Limitations in VMware hybrid setups introducing longer downtimes with operational inefficiencies.


Solutions

Automation pipelines and accelerators to seamlessly map and migrate infra and apps across VMC, AWS, and Azure.

Robust security automation via specialized Azure DevOps pipelines.

High-level security automation through dedicated AWS DevOps pipelines.

Best of breed multi-vendor security across AWS/Azure with Palo Alto for East-West and North-South contextual access.

Optimized resource use and superior performance.

Deployment of holistic Zero Trust architecture across hybrid cloud – Azure and AWS.


Outcome

100% Cloud Native with Zero Trust Security Controls.

2.5x Faster GTM.

$5.5M Avoidance for Non-Compliance/Failed Audits.
