Cloud Enablement

Leverage Emerging Cloud Services and Technologies Wisely

Cloud computing is a natural evolution of virtualization, service oriented architecture and utility computing - delivering on-demand computing with minimal administration. Lilien is out in front of this dominant trend, ready to help establish your Cloud strategy.

Transition to a cloud-based data center is a multi-year project. Private clouds, in particular, call for orchestration and automation of your virtualized environment. Public clouds, on the other hand, offer extreme flexibility, but play a limited role in most Cloud strategies due to security concerns.

Lilien's practice helps customers transition to cloud computing by creating an operations process to enable the disparate parts - physical and virtual servers, storage networks, public cloud resources - to function as one. We work with you to maximize the benefits of the cloud - self-service, agility and cost control - while minimizing risk.

Cloud Enablement Services include:

• Orchestration and automation - Coordinate delivery of resources to provide an integrated provisioning process: IT service delivered to the business in minutes from a single command. 

• Infrastructure virtualization - Decoupling hardware to create a pool of resources. We specialize in servers, storage, business continuity, network and personal systems (the building block to cloud computing).

• Public Cloud Analysis - Analysis is essential when planning for the public cloud. Lilien supports certain uses, and offers services for non-mission critical functions, including back-up, disaster recovery, data and e-mail archiving, and test and development environments.
