Cloud Solutions

Cloud Computing represents a future model of how MomentumSI's clients are providing improved IT infrastructure and services to deliver rapid business solutions

Technology advances around virtualization, infrastructure provisioning, autonomic computing and service oriented integration are forming the foundation for a new "cloud operating model". A Cloud-enabled organization's computational resources can be:

Allocated on-demand
Released when unused
Precisely metered
Securely managed and procured with the efficiency of commodities

Cloud computing applied correctly will exceed expectations and dynamically evolve applications and platforms to the next level of innovation. Our consultants work hand-in-cloud with your team to deliver initiatives that will emphasize gaining purchasing power, arbitrating computational cycles and quickly leveraging the cost synergies found in cloud environments.

The Momentum SI Approach to Program Management

Strategy and Business Case	Design
Our Strategy & Business Case offering is a two week engagement where MSI works with your leadership team to identify strategic uses of cloud computing for your environment. Current computing costs are analyzed and compared with expected returns from a cloud environment. The result is a set of detailed recommendations for adopting cloud computing.	In the Design phase, the strategy and requirements are translated into a customized solution. New I.T. operating models are created. Vendor offerings are reviewed and a target architecture is defined. To validate the solution, contained pilots are use to prove the technology and process modifications.



Planning and Analysis	Execution
The Planning & Analysis engagement identifies the specific cloud requirements that your organization needs. Security, compliance, performance and other special concerns are analyzed in detail. These requirements drive the creation of program and project plans focusing on resource needs, costs, risks, time and deliverables.	The Execution phase, builds off of the earlier Design phase, incorporating the lessons learned into the enterprise roll-out. Additional emphasis is placed on migrating current application to the cloud and verifying their performance and stability.
