Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our Cloud Strategy services.
Typically 2–4 weeks for small to mid-size environments, up to 8 weeks for large enterprise portfolios with hundreds of applications.
No. The strategy phase is a standalone engagement. Many clients use it to get board approval before committing to migration.
It depends on your workloads, existing licensing, and team skills. We are fully vendor-neutral and select the best fit based on your specific requirements.
We also do cloud optimization assessments for existing environments, reviewing architecture, cost, security, and governance against best practices.
