N(i)2 launches new offering designed to support IT initiatives for migrating enterprise applications to the Cloud. This new offering is designed to enhance clients’ understanding of their current enterprise application architecture, and from there, successfully facilitate the assessment, design, and deployment to the Cloud.
Montréal, Canada, September 8, 2011 - N(i)2, a leading provider of Cloud Infrastructure and Service Lifecycle Management solutions today announced the launch of N(i)2 Cloud Migration Management, a bundled services and software offering designed to help Systems Integration and Consulting firms, Service Providers, and Enterprise Application Managers facilitate the rapid identification, assessment, design, justification and migration of candidate applications to the Cloud.
N(i)2 Cloud Migration Management provides key insight and decision support information for identifying which applications are prime candidates for cloud migration, in providing analysis and cost justification prior to and after the migration, as well as in delivering and coordinating the deployment to the cloud. This ability to dynamically interact, query, and perform what-if scenarios from a single, interactive system sets a new standard for services value for enterprises considering migrating their applications to the Cloud.
Initially, N(i)2 Cloud Migration Management helps assess the current state of the application infrastructure. In addition to providing vital service and application dependencies, it assists in determining the resident applications’ true cost including initial capital cost and recurring costs of supporting infrastructure resources across the IT, Networks and Facilities domains. N(i)2 Cloud Migration Management then enables the modeling and design of the future state scenarios of the application infrastructure within the cloud. This serves in determining future costs and effectively planning the changeover to the cloud. Lastly, N(i)2 Cloud Migration Management automatically generates the migration release plan, greatly minimizing the impact for a successful transition to the Cloud .
“This new offering truly underscores N(i)2’s relevance and value in supporting a best practice approach to cloud migration”, said Ken Ballou, Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Business Development for N(i)2. Our Enterprise clients around the world describe their challenges in understanding how they can accelerate the delivery of meaningful cloud services to support their business needs. At the same time, SI’s and Service Providers are asking for significantly enhanced tools and methods to help improve the value, currency, and quality of the information that they leverage in supporting their client’s decisions regarding Cloud strategies. “In both cases, clients and partners have limited information needed to develop truly comprehensive current state assessments, accurate blueprints for intended state scenarios, and the most direct and cost-effective path from one to the other. N(i)2 Cloud Migration Management is an extremely powerful and effective technology that solves these exact challenges”, adds Ballou.
N(i)2 Cloud Migration Management is available today via a range of optional, industry standard, licensing models or via a project-based monthly utilization model.
