Cloud Migration
Cloud computing offers organisations the ability to become more cost-efficient, agile and innovative. Tier 2 offers a range of skills and services to help plan and execute a managed cloud migration strategy.
Containers, Kubernetes & the Cloud
Cloud migration – given inevitable deadlines – often needs to balance ambition and pragmatism. Container technology offers a relatively quick way to partially “modernise” applications, so they can leverage cloud benefits without having to, initially at least, recode or rebuild.
Containers are therefore a powerful enabling technology for cloud adoption, but require orchestration – this is where kubernetes fits in, as the leading open-source system for managing and running containerised applications at scale. Tier 2 are experts in native cloud platform implementations (Amazon EKS and Azure AKS), and enterprise-grade application platforms such as Red Hat OpenShift.
How Tier 2 can help
Kubernetes Cluster Planning
Tier 2 can help you design your optimal container environment by:
- Understanding overall containerisation goals;
- Reviewing specific requirements, such as public/private/hybrid cloud, storage, networking and identity management;
- Considering security, high availability, logging monitoring and alerting.

Kubernetes Cluster Implementation
Tier 2 can install and configure production and non-production kubernetes clusters, including storage solution, additional networking components, identity management, and logging, monitoring and alerting.
Application Migration Planning
Tier 2 will review target workloads and applications, to determine optimal migration approaches / application modernisation requirements.

Application Migration
Tier 2 can help with all migration options, from re-hosting through to Application Modernisation.
In the simplest re-hosting approach, Tier 2 will create container images of applications, configuration objects, create and refine deployment pipelines, and assist in the planning of data migration and regression testing efforts.
Streamline your migration process and unlock the full power of the cloud.
