T-Systems sets standard for cloud migration
- Bundling of methods, processes, and security
- Highly automated migration
“The Cloud Migration Framework is more than a toolkit for cloud migration,” explained Adel Al-Saleh, member of the Deutsche Telekom Board of Management and
Three-phase model
The CMF comprises three phases. Strategy consulting and assessment of the existing IT landscape (Cloud Assessment) comes first. Migration preparation (Cloud Mobilization) follows in phase 2. Here, applications, systems, the IT organization and its workforce are got into shape for the cloud. Phase 3 involves migrating workloads, including necessary modernizations (Cloud Migration & Modernization).
“Our experience and feedback from our clients has shown just how crucial it is to get the entire IT organization’s workforce onboard as you move to the cloud,” said Al-Saleh, “because without culture change, moving away from classic IT operation toward the flexible, highly innovative cloud, many advantages of the cloud go to waste.”
Integral approach for the multi cloud
The integral transformation approach offers enterprises the following benefits:
- Uniform tool set and framework for entire cloud rollout;
- Highly automated, standardized approach for all hyperscalers
- Combination of cloud adoption frameworks from hyperscalers and best practices from
T-Systems ; - Support for DevOps and Managed Cloud Services;
- Contract governed by German and European law based on Deutsche Telekom’s high security standards.
The CMF’s modular design provides customers with the perfect entry point depending on how far their enterprise is along the cloud migration journey. T Systems has more than 3,000 cloud architects and experts. The company works together closely with major cloud platform providers such as Microsoft, AWS, and Google Cloud. The cloud ecosystem also includes VMware Cloud on AWS, the Open Telekom Cloud, along with Software as a Service and Platforms as a Service (SaaS, PaaS). In addition, Deutsche Telekom’s business customer arm has an extensive broadband network that offers enterprises a high-speed, reliable connection to the cloud.
