MODERNIZATION CHALLENGES

Digital transformation is a necessary strategic journey, but not without its challenges. In fact, most organizations do not have a contextualized and strategic approach to systematically move workloads and apps to Azure. Instead, stakeholders struggle and say things like:

"We don’t know where to begin" - lack of visibility into workload inventory, scale, and priority.
"Our team is already overwhelmed" - already behind and spread thin between too many projects.
"Everything is a one off" - from testing to security to governance, every team reinvents the wheel!
"Project is too slow" - no end in sight; deadlines slip, teams get frustrated and lose interest.

To address these challenges, InCycle's team of industry experts packaged hands-on experience, frameworks, and technology to accelerate enterprise digital transformation and maximize enterprise ROI. These strategies, tools, methodologies and capabilities have been "codified" and is for customers to a speed time to modernization. The result is Elevate, InCycle’s state-of-the-art SaaS IT innovation platform designed specifically to accelerate application modernization and migrations to Azure.

ELEVATE OVERVIEW - 5 KEY PLATFORM COMPONENTS

1. Portfolio Analysis

Unlock the full potential of your workload portfolio with a comprehensive analysis strategy. Experience the power of smart scanning to accurately identify and scope workloads, validate key elements, and initial prioritization. Automated component and dependency review eliminates surprise “gotchas” and mitigates unforeseen challenges, ensuring your modernization initiatives are efficient and predictable.

Achieve unprecedented prioritization by combining the intrinsic connection between business value, ease of modernization, AI potential and DevOps readiness.

By creating a contextual strategic decision-making framework, modernization initiatives and roadmaps are conceived and designed to maximize value as workloads are automatically categorized to unleash transformative opportunities.

2. Workload Designer

AI-powered designer serves as the primary tool for strategic workload innovation, offering visualizations of both the current and future states. By utilizing intelligent workload analysis and recommendations, new architectures are infused with contextual insights to refine every design component, including technology, infrastructure, compliance and ROI.

Rapidly craft compelling business cases for brown and greenfield workloads alike, enabling strategic decisions supported by historical data and anticipated future expenses, including modernization and cloud services. Easily compare outcomes by evaluating "what-if" scenarios for competing designs.

Access and share workload architectures and business cases through autogenerated reports, which support team collaboration and approval processes.

3. Platform Engineering

Utilize Advanced Platform Engineering (PE) to foster innovation through standardization and automation.

Fast-track infrastructure with cloud provisioning and precisely designed "landing zones," all within compliance and governance policies.

Take advantage of an extensive template library or develop your own to speed up development and operations. Through PE, adhere to integrated governance and security best practices to ensure compliance.

Quickly launch self-service developer portals enhancing productivity by providing automated architecture and development environments.

4. Repository Migration & Modernization for GitHub

Migrate at scale with proven patterns and advanced tools to migrater faster from other repository providers (e.g., GitLab, Bitbucket). Repository or repo modernization is a service for managing repositories efficiently and securely. It includes regular updates to ensure access to the latest features and security patches.

5. Innovation Insights

At its core, Innovation Insights includes a sophisticated workload dashboard designed to provide comprehensive visibility and oversight into the key metrics that drive workload modernization and innovation throughout the enterprise.

By automatically tracking modernization initiatives, management can quickly observe enterprise modernization velocity (i.e., burndown charts, cycle time etc.) and accurately communicate status and projected outcomes to stakeholders.

Workload insights include detailed analysis of the ROI for innovation initiatives, empowering organizations to reconcile business decisions with realized value.
