Modern Cloud
Consultancy for cloud operations and modern workplace management
A few years ago, cloud computing was a mixture of dreams of the future and a topic for IT specialists, but today more and more companies are utilising the many benefits of cloud operations - such as cost reductions, increased agility and better scalability. As BDO DIGITAL GmbH, we offer you a comprehensive solution with our cloud consulting services to support your company in implementing and optimising your cloud strategies. By using Microsoft Azure and modern workplace management, we create the basis for efficient, flexible and future-proof processes in your company. With optimised cloud operations, you not only reduce your IT costs and shorten the time-to-market of your products and services - above all, you also optimise processes, can use resources more effectively and thus refocus on core competencies in all areas.
Microsoft Azure as a powerful cloud platform
A central aspect of our cloud consulting is the use of Microsoft Azure. Azure is one of the world's leading cloud platforms and offers a comprehensive portfolio of services and functions that support companies in their digital transformation.
The advantages of Microsoft Azure:
- Scalability: Azure enables companies to quickly scale their resources as required. Whether it's increasing computing power or adapting storage space, Azure enables companies to react flexibly to changes in the business environment.
- Cost efficiency: Azure enables companies to significantly reduce their IT costs. Instead of investing heavily in hardware, companies focus on paying for the resources they actually use. This results in an optimised cost structure.
Microsoft Azure offers comprehensive security solutions that ensure the protection of sensitive data and applications. Azure offers comprehensive protection for your cloud environment. This ranges from data encryption to advanced security protocols and serves as a defence against potential threats. The platform fulfils numerous compliance requirements and offers regular security updates.
Azure is characterised by its seamless integration and interoperability. The solution can be seamlessly integrated into existing systems, making it easier to migrate and operate applications. This enables a gradual adaptation to the cloud without affecting existing processes.
Cloud migration: strategies for effective use of the cloud
Migrating to the cloud is a crucial step for companies looking to modernise their IT infrastructure. Our cloud consultancy offers comprehensive support for cloud migration to ensure a smooth and efficient process.
The steps of cloud migration
- Analysis of the existing infrastructure: Our team of experts carries out a detailed analysis of the current IT infrastructure. The aim is to identify weak points and optimisation potential. This analysis forms the basis for a successful migration.
- Our range of services includes the development of a customised migration strategy. As part of this, we first analyse the specific requirements of the company in order to develop a suitable migration strategy. We place particular emphasis on security, compliance and minimising downtime. A clear roadmap ensures transparency throughout the entire process.
- 3rd phase of the migration: In this phase, we actively support our customers in migrating their applications and data to the Azure cloud. Our experts ensure that all steps are carefully planned and implemented to avoid any disruption to operations during the migration.
- Sustainable monitoring and optimisation: Following the migration, we provide you with continuous monitoring and optimisation services. These are designed to ensure that your cloud environment functions properly. We help companies to fully utilise the benefits of Azure and help to continuously improve the performance of cloud services.
Modern workplace design: efficiency and flexibility in everyday working life
A modern workplace involves more than just a desk in the office. The increasing prevalence of remote working and flexible working models requires innovative solutions that enable employees to work productively - regardless of their location. Our cloud consultancy offers a wide range of services in the field of modern workplace management.
Virtual desktop infrastructures (VDI) are among the aspects that are relevant in this context. With VDI solutions, employees can access their company resources from anywhere. This enables a flexible way of working and helps to improve the work-life balance, giving them a decisive advantage in the competition for new employees. The provision of virtual desktops is a particularly advantageous solution for companies that want to support a hybrid working environment.
The integration of tools such as Microsoft Teams or SharePoint promotes collaboration between teams and departments. These tools enable efficient communication and the exchange of information in real time. Using these platforms enables companies to significantly increase the productivity of their employees.
Training and support
To enable your employees to use the new technologies effectively, we offer comprehensive training courses. The aim of the training is to teach employees how to use the new cloud and collaboration solutions and to increase their productivity. A well-trained team is crucial for a successful digital transformation.
Another decisive factor in modern workplace management is security. We implement security solutions that ensure the protection of sensitive data and minimise the risk of cyber attacks. Measures include multi-factor authentication, access controls and regular security checks.
Successful projects from our cloud consulting
As BDO DIGITAL GmbH, we have already helped numerous companies to achieve their digital goals. There are various examples of successful support, particularly in the context of the cloud:
Operating costs
- A medium-sized company was able to reduce its operating costs by 30% by migrating to Microsoft Azure. At the same time, system availability was significantly improved, resulting in higher customer satisfaction.
Productivity
- A company in the healthcare sector was able to increase the productivity of its employees by 25% by implementing modern workplace solutions. The key was the implementation of collaboration tools and VDI solutions, which enabled an increase in efficiency and an accelerated exchange of information.
