They work with key stakeholders to develop a hybrid cloud strategy aligned with the organization's goals, taking into account factors such as scalability, flexibility, security, compliance, and cost optimization.
Osprey consultants help design the architecture and integration framework for the hybrid cloud environment, considering factors such as workload placement, data residency, network connectivity, identity and access management, and data protection. They develop a detailed migration plan that outlines the steps and timelines for migrating workloads and data between on-premises and cloud environments.
Osprey consultants assist in selecting the appropriate cloud service providers, platforms, and technologies for implementing the hybrid cloud solution. They evaluate different cloud providers based on factors such as service offerings, performance, reliability, security, pricing, and vendor lock-in considerations.
Advisors provide guidance on implementing robust security controls and compliance measures to protect data and applications in the hybrid cloud environment. This includes implementing encryption, access controls, identity management, logging, monitoring, and compliance frameworks tailored to the organization's industry regulations and standards.
Osprey consultants support the organization throughout the migration process, providing expertise and best practices for migrating workloads, applications, and data between on-premises and cloud environments. They assist with workload refactoring, data synchronization, network configuration, and testing to ensure a seamless transition to the hybrid cloud.
Osprey consultants help establish operational processes and management practices for managing and monitoring the hybrid cloud environment. This includes implementing automation tools, monitoring solutions, and service level agreements (SLAs) to ensure optimal performance, availability, and cost efficiency of cloud resources.
Osprey consultants provide training and skills development programs to equip IT staff with the knowledge and expertise required to manage and operate the hybrid cloud environment effectively. This includes training on cloud technologies, best practices, and troubleshooting techniques.
