Challenge
Your legacy VM-based applications can't deploy where customers need them, losing you market opportunities while maintenance costs consume 75% of your IT budget. Meanwhile, competitors with cloud-native solutions are winning deals because they can deploy across any environment your customers prefer. The gap widens as your team spends 22% of their time building workarounds instead of delivering features that drive revenue.
Approach
We work with your team to understand which customer opportunities you're missing and what operational pain points are affecting delivery. Through collaborative workshops, we identify the specific modernisation patterns that align with your business needs and design a practical pilot that demonstrates multi-cloud deployment capabilities. This approach ensures we're solving real business problems rather than pursuing technical excellence for its own sake.
Using your representative application, we implement cloud-native patterns that directly address your constraints. You'll see how containerisation enables deployment flexibility, witness operational simplification through automation, and experience the shortened development feedback loops that increase velocity. We focus on demonstrating measurable improvements in areas that matter to your business success.
We validate our solution against your actual requirements through practical testing. Can it deploy where your customers need it? Does it simplify operations for your team? The pilot provides concrete evidence of deployment flexibility and documents what's required for broader transformation, giving you a clear foundation for strategic decisions about your modernisation journey.

Workload Modernisation Roadmap
Workload Modernisation FAQ
How do we know if our legacy applications are actually ready for containerisation without disrupting our revenue stream?
Solution: Risk-assessed validation approach
We start by analysing your application's architecture and dependencies to identify potential containerisation blockers. Through our structured pilot approach, we test modernisation patterns on a representative application whilst maintaining your existing production environment. This lets you see concrete evidence of feasibility before committing to broader transformation.
What happens to our team's expertise with legacy systems once we modernise, and how do we manage that transition?
Solution: Skills evolution pathway
We design the modernisation to leverage your team's existing knowledge whilst building cloud-native capabilities. The pilot includes hands-on workshops where your team practices with new patterns alongside familiar application logic. This ensures continuity of institutional knowledge whilst developing the skills needed for modern operations.
How can we be certain that modernisation will actually reduce our operational costs rather than just shifting them around?
Solution: Measurable cost validation
The pilot includes specific metrics that demonstrate operational improvements, from deployment time reductions to automation benefits. We compare the effort required for common tasks in your current environment versus the modernised approach, providing concrete evidence of where cost savings will materialise before you commit to full transformation.
