Hybrid Cloud

Hybrid Cloud is the new normal for IT Infrastructure in the modern enterprise and offers the opportunity to leverage public or third party provided cloud services by expanding on premises data centres into these providers.
Leveraging Hybrid Cloud brings significant advantages to any business, enabling scaling and agility options are beyond the capabilities of most on premises solutions alone. WhiteSpider has extensive experience in Hybrid Cloud solutions, from cloud enablement to implementation and even a turn key solution offering that enables customers simple adoption of Hybrid Cloud and optional managed services.

Public Cloud

Cloud First is high on the agenda if not the leading element for most businesses IT strategies. Public Cloud brings a vast set of capabilities and service offerings that enable business to more easily evolve and adopt technical solutions to both
improve thier services, but also potentially provide cost savings and operational efficiency.
WhiteSpider has the expertise to assist customers with cloud adoption and delivery. Specialising in enablement, through design of connectivity solutions, landing zones and migrations, WhiteSpider can assist customers through both professional and managed services for AWS, Azure and GCP based IaaS, PaaS and SaaS offerings.

Private Cloud

Private Clouds are the modern methodology for on premises datacentres. Whilst the industry term 'Cloud First' is synonymous with utilising Public Cloud offerings, there are many reasons Private Clouds are still the predominate platform for businesses to deploy their applications and services. These reasons include considerations for data sovereignty, data locality (for performance) and even cost.
WhiteSpider's technical team have decades of experience in the design, deployment and management of on premises infrastructure solutions including Private Cloud solutions based on hyperconverged infrastructure.

Modern Applications

Modern applications is a term used to describe the development and architecture used in the process of development of applications today. The monolithic methodology has many characteristics that make them sub optimal in the cloud era.
Applications that are modular, lightweight and portable enable customers to have both agility but also scalability. Applications developed on container-based solutions such as Kubernetes can be deployed in a common fashion across all the Hyperscale public cloud providers and on premises based private clouds in a common familiar fashion, giving developers more control and optimising the efficiency of updates and releases. WhiteSpider can provide expertise in modern applications from platform deployment and consumption, to application analysis for business transformation and cloud migration.

Sustainable use of the cloud

As a business, you can make better use of the cloud by choosing providers who prioritise sustainability. Look for those who are transparent about their energy consumption and are committed to using renewable energy. Additionally, consider adopting a cloud-native or hybrid-cloud approach. This means designing your applications specifically for the cloud, which can lead to more efficient use of resources and less energy consumption.

It should be noted however, that the sustainability and commercial efficiencies of using cloud, are directly and inextricably linked to how applications and services are architected. It’s important to carry out a cloud readiness assessment to clearly understand the benefits, workload, cost, and implications of moving to a cloud first model. We can help you with this.
