Cloud resource assessment
Review resource utilisation and configuration information to identify possible right-sizing or allocation changes for the workload.
Cloud Cost & Infrastructure Optimisation
Understand how your cloud environment is being used and identify improvement opportunities without losing sight of reliability, security, or workload needs.
Discuss Cloud OptimisationMake cloud decisions using your workload data
Cloud costs and application performance depend on how infrastructure is configured and used. SLY Innovation helps businesses review available resource, usage, and performance information to identify potential areas for improvement.
Recommendations should be based on the actual environment and operating requirements. An opportunity that reduces spend but weakens availability, security, backup, or recovery may not be an appropriate change.
Areas to review
Azure cost optimisation
Assess suitable Azure environments for resource use, lifecycle management, configuration, and cost-management opportunities.
Application performance
Investigate potential bottlenecks in application code, database access, API calls, and infrastructure configuration.
Legacy application modernisation
Review older applications and identify practical options to improve maintainability, compatibility, reliability, and operations.
Infrastructure efficiency
Review deployment patterns, environment usage, monitoring, and operating processes for avoidable complexity or idle resources.
Cost and performance measurement
Establish a baseline and compare changes against it, documenting assumptions and observed results rather than relying on generic savings estimates.
A measured optimisation process
Assess: Understand the environment, workload requirements, and available cost or performance data.
Identify: Document opportunities and estimate potential impact only where evidence supports an estimate.
Prioritise: Compare value, implementation effort, risk, and business constraints.
Implement: Apply agreed changes with appropriate testing, access controls, monitoring, and rollback planning.
Measure: Compare actual outcomes to an established baseline.
