Our goal is to provide the best possible rewards for your business. Transparency is important to us and In this segment we list issues most consultants neglect: the risks
Carefully evaluating and managing these risks will help you achieve a successful cloud migration.
Security risks
Sensitive data can be vulnerable to cyber attacks if not properly secured in the cloud and endpoints.
It is important to ensure strong encryption and access control.
Compliance and regulations
Industries have specific regulations that need to be met. Failure to comply with these can lead to legal issues.
Make sure the cloud provider meets the relevant compliance requirements.
Downtime and availability
Migration can lead to temporary service interruptions.
It is crucial to have a detailed migration plan to minimise downtime.
Cost overruns
Although the cloud is cost-efficient, unexpected costs can arise from high data traffic or additional storage, for example.
It is important to have a clear cost management plan.
Vendor lock-in
It can be difficult to switch from one cloud provider to another once you have migrated.
Consider the flexibility and interoperability of the chosen cloud solution.
Performance issues
The performance of cloud-based applications can vary depending on the network connection and the cloud provider.
Ensure proper monitoring and performance optimisation.
