There is a lot of pressure on enterprise IT to adopt cloud, and rightfully so. Most enterprises are moving toward multi-tenant, fully managed deployments, but most are seeing a careful, deliberate migration towards public cloud or hosted environments. Identifying and assessing challenges is the key point before taking any steps to modernize or migrate applications.
A container is a type of an operating system virtualization which helps in the efficient running of applications across platforms with minimum consumption of resources. As a matter of fact, a single container can be used to run anything from necessary executables to libraries, configuration files or even basic or advanced binary codes. Containers are lightweight and portable, a major point to consider while deploying them in cloud.
Well, the answer is yes and no. Containerization is a relatively new technology and needs significant efforts to containerize an application, orchestrate, secure, manage and monitor it. Hence it’s worth looking at what does it take to containerize, deploy and run an application in real production in bit details for you to take a call whether you want to venture into it yourself or not.
For adoption of cloud, for enterprises, there are tools which enable movement of VMs or hosts to the cloud. However, to seek the benefits of cloud, enterprises or startups need to focus on applications and not the entire infra over which the application resides. To ensure applications work post-migration, they need to be assessed on multiple parameters.
Modernizing applications to the cloud will not only save time and resources but also help in scaling your offering! Sounds familiar? Well, it has to since everyone is pacing ahead of the cloud curve. So isn’t it an obvious move for those age-old legacy applications to be modernized to cloud? Here is a quick read on how you can go cloud-native.
Pune, India – June 21, 2019 – CloudHedge Technologies today announced it raised funding from NTT DATA Corporation, Japan. CloudHedge’s technology agnostic platform brings automation and intelligence to enterprises in their digital journey to modernize applications. In addition, CloudHedge has grown multi-fold in containers, Kubernetes and cloud ecosystems around the globe.
At CloudHedge, we’re making use of AI to mitigate inefficiencies and speed up the automated application modernization process. Deploying applications on the cloud has always been challenging, there are so many parameters involved that the entire deployment process becomes tedious. To make matters easy, we have CloudHedge’s Cruize module which can be used for deploying your app on cloud, be it AWS, GCP, IBM Cloud or even Azure.
Pune, India – May 14, 2019: CloudHedge announces a new collaboration with Google Cloud, as a Technology Partner in the Google Cloud Partner Program, giving Google Cloud customers the ability to quickly refactor application services into containers by using CloudHedge’s tools – Discover, Transform and Cruize. CloudHedge tools can be leveraged with ease for migration of heavy workloads to Google Cloud Platform (GCP), further reducing time, cost and efforts.
While using Kubernetes clusters of different distributions like – AKS, GKE, EKS, OpenShift, and ICP we need to give specific privileges to a specific user/user group. During this process, to give restricted access to a cluster we can make use of a service account.
Being elastic in nature, many of us think migrating to cloud will be a cost-effective solution to host infrastructure. But this is partly true, however, when your hosted infrastructure becomes fat the cost of the cloud increases rapidly. Moreover, managing cloud infra costs becomes difficult because of the growing infrastructure/teams. To curb the increasing costs, here are a few best practices which can be adhered to manage infrastructure efficiently.
