The right cloud approach for your business.

Moving to the cloud starts with understanding what your business needs from its technology. IronPoint reviews your applications, data, users and existing infrastructure to help decide which workloads belong in the cloud and which may be better kept onsite or in a private environment.

We support Microsoft Azure, private cloud and hybrid environments, from initial design and migration through ongoing management. We consider connectivity, identity, security, backup and operating costs together, so your cloud services become a manageable part of your IT environment rather than another system your team has to look after.

How we help

Cloud assessment and design

Review workloads, dependencies and business requirements, then plan a suitable public, private or hybrid cloud environment.

Migration and implementation

Plan the transfer of servers, applications and data, including preparation, testing, cutover and rollback arrangements.

Cloud security and access

Configure identities, permissions, multifactor authentication and network access around your approved requirements.

Backup and recovery

Review data protection, retention and recovery needs, and configure appropriate backup and recovery arrangements.

Monitoring and maintenance

Support the ongoing health of cloud infrastructure, investigate issues and manage updates within the agreed service scope.

Cost and capacity management

Review usage, resource sizing and recurring charges to help align cloud spending with your business needs.

Cloud hosting does not replace a recovery plan. Our business continuity and disaster recovery service helps connect cloud workloads, backups and restoration priorities.

What to expect

We begin with a review of your current systems and the outcome you want to achieve. We compare suitable options and expected costs, then agree on a design and migration plan. After implementation, we validate access, application operation and recovery arrangements before moving into the agreed support and management plan.

Common questions

Do we need to move everything to the cloud?

No. A hybrid approach can keep some systems onsite while using cloud services where they offer a practical advantage. Application requirements, connectivity, cost and recovery needs help guide that decision.

Can you manage a cloud environment we already have?

Yes. We can review your existing configuration, access controls, backup coverage and spending, then agree on improvements and ongoing support responsibilities.

Will moving to the cloud reduce our costs?

It depends on your workloads, licensing, storage, data transfer and management requirements. We compare the relevant costs before recommending a move and review usage as your needs change.

What should we check before a cloud migration?

List the applications and data involved, their dependencies, licensing needs, internet connectivity and access requirements. Agree on a migration window, validation checks, recovery arrangements and ongoing operating costs before scheduling the move.
