Business
Business process and maturity assessments help us better understand your business strategy and objective. We identify priorities and pain points to pull out a shortlist of possible initiatives with clear objectives.
Analytics
We first translate objectives into analytical requirements, creating a high-level solution design and horizontal capability strategy. A tech shortlist is finalized so that investments and returns can be accurately assessed.
Capability
A detailed execution roadmap and a skills/expertise strategy are both drawn out to ensure maximum efficiency. After determining the technology stack, we use a data readiness analysis to define the data science operational framework.
Technology
DataFactZ conducts a technology maturity assessment and a technology gap analysis, defining technology requirements in order to determine the recommendations, cloud strategy, and technology evaluation roadmap.
The rise of Cloud innovations and SaaS offerings by ISVs are relentlessly propelling the business and technology sectors forward.
With strong partnerships with leading Cloud providers including AZURE and Google Cloud Platform, DataFactZ can recommend a robust Cloud adoption strategy that best aligns with your unique goals, systems and workloads.
Enterprise Cloud Strategy
Enterprises are adopting a “Cloud First” strategy to deliver mission-critical application services. It provides a powerful foundation and focuses on low-cost, best-effort delivery in order to gain business agility and competitive edge.
Whether your Cloud journey is hybrid, multi, private or public, we can build the optimal roadmap for your organization.
Cloud Readiness Assessment
DataFactZ will analyze the infrastructure, applications, and services of your business with a prime focus on Cloud readiness, selecting what can, what should, and what cannot be migrated into the Cloud. Our Cloud Readiness Assessment takes on the following steps:
Strategy Assessment
Design an optimal Cloud strategy by leveraging templates and tools to catalog the existing applications, infrastructure and network architecture, prioritizing the workloads and applications for Cloud migration.
Target Platform Mapping
Determine which Cloud platform fits the strategy and design a high-level target infrastructure and Cloud platform architecture that accommodate the security and risk requirements.
TCO Analysis
Perform a cost-modeling exercise estimating future Cloud consumption based on existing workloads, comparing overall costs between your current and estimated future IT expenditures.
Technology
Develop a detailed deployment strategy for all applications that are in scope, along with a proposal for future phases.
Leverage deep data knowledge to gain a competitive advantage in each stage of the data lifecycle.
Big Data offers new doors of opportunity for organizations to utilize data in ways that extend their competitive advantage, but many are unsure of where to start.
