Design and Implement Services
Bringing your concepts and visions to life is a crucial part of the entire journey. PwC can help you design and implement solutions and concepts by adopting the best practices in the industry and by using the latest in development design principles. PwC have a range of customisable offerings that enable us to be a trusted advisor to you.
Workload migration
We help organisation move their on-premises to the cloud infrastructure. This may involve activities as simple as ‘lift and shift’ to as comprehensive as ‘re-engineering legacy applications’.
Backup and disaster recovery
Cloud is increasingly gaining popularity amongst seekers of backup and disaster recovery solutions. Cheap storage costs, robust resilience and orchestration capabilities are the driving factors for this. PwC can help design and implement your entire backup and disaster recovery ecosystem on a cloud platform.
Managed services for cloud
The true potential of the cloud lies in optimally designing, using and monitoring the resources on cloud using tools and scripts native to the cloud environment. PwC’s managed services for cloud offers architects, L1 / L2 engineers, advanced frameworks and tools on a shared services model. Clients have often cited increased cost savings both on the human capital and cloud resource level.
Test and dev environments
Testing and development is an excellent use-case for the cloud infrastructure. The cloud is more forgiving to ‘mistakes’ which are quite common within this environment as developers would be testing different configurations. Cloud helps user spin up multiple versions of the same virtual machines, for example, thus enabling them to conduct tests faster and more organised. Test virtual machines can be shut down when not needed to ensure no further billing on it.
Cloud native applications
PwC helps organise design, develop and maintain ‘born in the cloud’ applications. Such applications are entirely cloud aware and efficiently utilise the underlying technology offered by the cloud vendor (Microsoft, Amazon, Google etc.). Such applications would be more scalable, secure and robust compared to its on-premises implementations.
Mobile application development
PwC can design, develop and maintain mobile applications that are either standalone applications (no dependencies on any other data source) or mobile versions of a larger application. Developing Mobile applications on the cloud ensure sufficient resources and capacity is available for a sudden rise in consumption. Cloud also offers specialised services for mobile application development that makes release times of the application lower than usual.
DevOps setup
DevOps is one of the most popular use case for the cloud. The merging of development and operations is achieved more efficiently on cloud than on-premises. PwC help organisations setup a DevOps ecosystem which includes not only the technology components of it but also most importantly the governance framework required to make this application development paradigm a success.
Web applications on cloud
Build your web applications on the cloud infrastructure to ensure high availability, scalability, security and performance. Microsoft Azure, for example, also offers Azure Websites as a PaaS service to offload the infrastructure management tasks (e.g. OS patching, web server maintenance, etc.) from you. PwC helps organisation across the entire lifecycle of this engagement right from designing, implementing and supporting the solution.
