Introduction
Contents
The Scottish Government has made a clear commitment to the development of digital public services. To achieve this - and to reduce costs and focus resources on front line services - there is a declared need to develop shared infrastructure, that makes good use of cloud computing, virtualisation and co-location. Public Sector bodies are directed to adopt a cloud smart strategy, the ability to benefit from and make the most of cloud computing, the Internet of Things (IoT) and other data-driven technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI).” https://www.gov.scot/publications/green-datacentres-and-digital-connectivity-vision-and-action-plan-for-scotland/ However, determining the most appropriate path to follow on this journey is typically not straightforward. This is why Insight has developed a comprehensive range of Cloud and Data Centre Transformation (CDC+T) services to help organisations navigate this process, from strategy to architecture, implementation and migration, operational support and optimisation.

With the number of options available, developing a cloud strategy that is right for your organisation can be challenging. At Insight, we are in the enviable position of being truly independent and can offer advice that is tailored specifically for you. We have excellent relationships with the hyperscale public cloud providers as well as with well-established local providers. This allows us to understand your particular situation, business issues and future plans, then to propose the right strategy and priorities to get you where you want to be – with the least risk. Insight’s range of Transition and Migration Services are there to support you through all stages of your journey, from planning your first steps, building a solid foundation, and migration of workloads. Amongst the first projects often undertaken is back up to cloud, which can also include an assessment of storage requirements and disaster recovery options. And with the prevalence of virtualisation, migrating VMWare estates to cloud is becoming increasingly an area of focus.
