We would like to introduce “UBSLogic floor talks” to you. It’s an amazing and very popular event where our engineers gather together to talk about technologies, trends, and tech solutions.
Usually, we define 1-2 topics for such events and today we want to share with you the Cloud trends.
It has already passed 15 years of the Cloud revolution in IT sector. Only Fortune 500 companies spent more than $1 trillion to adopt the cloud during this period. As the Financial sector didn’t actively use data centers in Cloud we believe that financial institutions will start significant investment in Cloud within 2-3 years from now on.
Companies building their Cloud capabilities usually mix providers and use only 2-3 Cloud providers in the following proportion: about 60 percent of workloads go to one, 30 percent to another, and the rest goes to a third one. The top three cloud service providers are AWS (Amazon Web Services), GCP (Google Cloud Platform), and Microsoft Azure. Every engineer can prepare himself for certification and receive different certificates from cloud providers. To be well prepared for the certification, every engineer must spend 1-2 months getting one.
UBSLogic observe that our customers get more value from Cloud when business innovation and optimization come first, and IT cost reduction comes later. The pioneering companies decide to “Start small and grow, ” a more viable cloud strategy. The right design and building of cloud foundations provide a reusable, scalable platform that supports all the IT workloads destined for the cloud. This approach unlocks the benefits that the cloud offers and ultimately captures its full value.
Technology optimization to enable the quick time-to-market process
The right cloud foundation should be constructed to enable an idea’s rapid progression from inception to up and running in a production environment, without sacrificing safety and security.
Normally, a company should have from 5 to 100 isolation zones, depending on the size of the business and the number of applications that the company provides.
Creating preventative and automated cloud security and compliance is the cornerstone
All software components and systems go through a security layer first. Security as code (SaC) is the most effective method to secure cloud workloads with velocity and agility. The SaC approach in the Cloud defines policies of cybersecurity and rules programmatically so that they can be referenced automatically in the configuration scripts used to provision cloud systems.
We believe that right cloud architecture is when the company can scale Cloud support from several people to hundred or more without significant changes.
CTO needs to design cloud architecture first and provide tools to the business to build organization on it
The best way is when an client has such teams with the UBSLogic: base teams, isolation-zone teams, and application-pattern teams. They provide possibility to minimize dependencies among groups and ultimately deliver well-architected components at a lower cost.
Right team composition is a cornerstone that helps to ensure a business uses its capabilities in the correct way. To achieve this dedicated product teams have to be staffed with experienced cloud architects and engineers to create and manage simple, scalable, and reusable cloud products for application teams.
For instance, Application teams can be responsible for configuring shared resources, standardizing deployment pipelines, and ensuring quality and security compliance. They should not re-develop how to design and deploy applications in Cloud.
