How Cloud Managed Services Experts Can Help You Optimize AWS Cloud

AWS is the leading cloud service provider in 2023. Companies are increasingly turning to AWS services to leverage the benefits of the cloud. To achieve this, they often require AWS-managed cloud services experts. There are four major and significant steps in the journey of an AWS user. They are as follows:   

• Cloud Architecture   
• Cloud Apps & Infrastructure Migration   
• Managing AWS   
• Cloud Optimization   

These steps in the AWS cloud journey are known as AMMO (architect, migrate, manage, optimize). In this blog, we will discuss how one can avail services from AWS – managed cloud services experts to add value to their business by increasing the performance and scalability in all the steps of AMMO. 

Here are some of the benefits an AWS-certified cloud expert can add for you:   

Architecture Design Services  

In this phase, you need assistance from an AWS solution architect regarding how to design and implement a cloud infrastructure/application strategy. A certified AWS expert is of immense benefit at this stage, helping ensure that you choose the right technologies, analyze the IT procedures you currently employ, and free your resources so that they can focus on strategic business objectives.   

Moreover, an AWS expert ensures that your application design and implementation plans are correctly understood and consistently implemented. 

These are some of the procedures needed for laying the practicalities of an optimum AWS environment during architecting:   

• Pre-migration Assessment   
• Technology Stack roadmap   
• Technology POCs (Proof of Concept)   
• Best cloud practices using AWS Well-Architected Framework   

Migration Services   

This stage of the AMMO lifecycle involves moving all your applications and data to AWS Cloud Managed Services. And while this is no easy task, an experienced AWS expert can make your migration smooth by avoiding common problems. They can also conduct a migration that results in an AWS environment that’s agile, scalable, secure, and high-performing—while cutting your computing costs significantly.  

These are some of the processes that an AWS Connect expert takes for optimization during the migration phase:

• CI/CD implementation   
• Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC)   
• Configuration management   

Managing Services   

Once your AWS environment is up and running, it’s time to focus on the cloud management side of your AMMO journey. Rather than devoting time and resources to managing the environment yourself, consider allowing an AWS expert to handle all your cloud management tasks for you. Doing so expands your access to some of the most valuable AWS benefits available—the ability to focus on perfecting your core business model instead of being distracted by routine cloud computing management tasks.
