The Challenge

The cable and media company possessed a vast, fragmented, and expensive IT footprint. This included thousands of workloads spread across multiple platforms with siloed consoles and inconsistent reporting. Compliance requirements and legacy systems made change incredibly risky, leaving the massive estate stuck without a clear modernization path.

Deep Discovery

Collects workloads, services, configurations, networking, and compute resources automatically.

Deep Discovery

Collects workloads, services, configurations, networking, and compute resources automatically.

Workload Insights

Maps application-to-infrastructure dependencies and generates cloud-fit recommendations along with target cloud IaC templates.

Wave Planning

Prioritizes workloads by complexity and business criticality to design actionable migration waves

Key Project Drivers

The need to modernize a complex estate of 12,000 servers, including 6,600 VMware workloads and 5,500 container workloads.
Overcoming fragmented visibility across 7 data centers and multiple regions.
Addressing the risks associated with legacy systems and stringent compliance requirements to unblock modernization.
