BRAMKAS / Specialist services
Cloud Modernization
Assess legacy workloads, plan a suitable cloud architecture, and modernize applications with an agreed migration and operating approach.
The opportunity
Expertise shaped around your requirements.
Modernization starts with the workloads you run today: their dependencies, data, operating costs, and business constraints. BRAMKAS helps evaluate migration options and define a target architecture across the cloud platforms relevant to your environment.
Plan implementation around security, validation, cutover, and the team that will operate the environment. Cost savings and availability outcomes depend on the workload, design, and execution; establish a baseline and measure them during the engagement.
When to choose this service
- Legacy infrastructure or applications are limiting an agreed business goal.
- You need a workload assessment and a practical migration or modernization plan.
What you receive
- Workload and dependency assessment
- Target architecture and migration planning
- Application and infrastructure modernization
- Security and access design
- Migration testing and cutover planning
- Monitoring and operating handover

Operational feedback guides further optimization.
Inside this stage
Current estate
Understand the applications, infrastructure, dependencies, and constraints that shape the modernization plan.
What takes shape
- Workload assessment
- Dependencies and constraints
Inside this stage
Modernization
Define the target architecture and plan migration work around application needs, security, and continuity.
What takes shape
- Target architecture
- Migration and validation plan
Inside this stage
Cloud operations
Bring operational visibility and cost awareness into the environment so the team can manage it after migration.
What takes shape
- Operational visibility
- Optimization priorities
A conceptual view of the service. The scope and deliverables are agreed for each engagement.
Try a process simulationAdjust four factors and explore how effort shifts between stages.
Illustrative planning model. Effort units show relative emphasis within this model; they are not hours, prices, success probabilities, or a BRAMKAS delivery estimate.
Where effort shifts
19 effort units- Current estate6 units
- Modernization8 units
- Cloud operations5 units
This matches the reference scenario of 19 units. Most attention in this model: Modernization.
Playback visualizes relative effort, not elapsed delivery time.
What to clarify first
- Start with a bounded workload and migration wave.
- Map application and data dependencies before migration.
- Complete a workload and ownership inventory.
- Align cutover windows, approvals, and rollback ownership.
How this model works
All factors use a level from 0 to 2. Readiness is inverted: ready = 0, partly ready = 1, early discovery = 2. All other factors increase from the first option to the last.
Input stage = 2 + scope + (2 × readiness) + dependencies.
Specialist work = 3 + (2 × scope) + (2 × complexity) + readiness.
Output stage = 2 + complexity + (2 × dependencies).
The reference uses level 1 for every factor. These teaching weights are authored assumptions, not measured BRAMKAS performance. Each bar uses the same 0–13 scale. Playback takes 450 ms + 90 ms per effort unit for each stage; it is shortened to a static result when motion is disabled.
