Architecture

Whether cloud, hybrid or on-premise, architecture is a guiding strategy that dictates the principals for which a system will deliver business outcomes through the use of technology. In a architectural engagement our architects will work to understand the current state, the organisation’s desired future state, the gap between the two, and then provide guidance as to what projects, products and people are required to deliver the desired state. This may require silos of data to be opened up or the automation of complex business processes.

Cloud Application Integration Services

As workloads are moved to the cloud, application integration becomes critical. The Microsoft Azure Service Bus, reflects the same principals as that of BizTalk when it comes to application integration. The transition to cloud will vary according to the nature of the application and the number of external application connections. For applications that require the rapid contraction / expansion of resources for example will move speedily to the cloud, whereas legacy applications will most likely see a journey from on-premise to hybrid to cloud over an extended time horizon.
