Syntax Cloud Advisory Services
Maximize Your Cloud Investment at Every Stage of Your Cloud Journey
Overview
Cloud computing has become an integral part of doing business for organizations of every size and in every industry, helping them grow, scale and respond to changing business and market conditions faster than ever. Already, more than 75% of large organizations buy cloud services from more than one provider, and Gartner projects that by 2027, more than 70% of enterprises will accelerate business initiatives using cloud platforms*.
But moving to and operating in the cloud brings new challenges and risks. Migrating to the cloud is complex. Ensuring your cloud operations are well controlled and cost-efficient can be difficult. Making sure your cloud footprint is current, secure, and right-sized to your needs is an ongoing task.
That’s why Syntax provides a full range of technical and professional advisory services to help you achieve your organization’s objectives, no matter where you are on your cloud journey. Whether you’re considering a move to the cloud, looking to future-proof your existing cloud footprint, or somewhere in between, our team has the experience and expertise to help you make the right decision and move forward with confidence.

Cloud Governance Services
Strong cloud governance is essential. Without it, organizations can struggle with a lack of visibility and control over cloud operations. They can miss security and compliance challenges, operational inefficiencies, poor resource utilization, or emerging shadow IT systems. Managing performance and change becomes more difficult, cost overruns become more common, and cloud’s promise of reducing technical debt goes unfulfilled.
Syntax Cloud Governance Services help you navigate cloud governance’s complexities to ensure your cloud operations are secure, efficient, cost-effective, and compliant. We’ll help you define the right rules, processes, and interoperability model and advise on how to (re)design your cloud environment, including account structure and access restrictions. We’ll also evaluate whether your cloud infrastructure spending is appropriate for your business needs, identifying opportunities to eliminate waste and improve efficiency.

Cloud Readiness Services
You know your business needs to move to the cloud. Maybe you’ve already chosen a cloud platform. But do you understand of the risks and challenges involved in migrating your data, processes, and key workloads to the cloud—and how to mitigate those risks and overcome those challenges?
Syntax Cloud Readiness Services will help you understand what it takes to move your mission-critical data and applications to your cloud platform of choice quickly and efficiently, so you can begin to realize the value of cloud computing as fast as possible.
- Our Migration Readiness Assessment is more than a scoping exercise. It’s a deep investigation that details all software, hardware, and networking on-premises and in the cloud, identifies critical workloads and applications, and maps out the migration process.Download our Migration Readiness Assessment Brief
- Migration Readiness Planning establishes how you get from your current state to the cloud. It includes a migration plan that sets out the accounts, instances, servers, and databases you’ll need and describes how your data will be moved to the cloud. It also includes a detailed cost estimate and the operational model to ensure a smooth cloud transition.Download our Migration Readiness Planning Brief
Migration Execution
Migrating your existing data, applications, and workloads to the cloud is a complex endeavor. In-house IT teams may not have the resources or experience to plan and execute your cloud migration.
Syntax understands the complexities of cloud migration. We’ll harness our technical expertise, automations, and tools to execute your migration plan in a way that leverages the scale and flexibility of your chosen cloud platform. If you also rely on third-party or homegrown applications, we’ll advise on how best to get them into the cloud, too. As your cloud migration partner, Syntax will help you minimize risk, improve innovation, strengthen data security, and unlock the business value of your data—while lowering your TCO.
Cloud Optimization Services
Migrating your data, workloads, and processes to the cloud is a huge milestone, but making the most of your cloud investment doesn’t end there. As your business grows and evolves, it can be challenging to understand and manage your cloud spend and ensure your cloud infrastructure still meets current needs.
Syntax Post-Migration Services are designed to help your organization keep cloud costs under control and ensure your cloud infrastructure is as secure, high-performing, and cost-effective as it should be.
- FinOps helps finance and technology leaders understand, manage, control, visualize, and optimize their company’s cloud investments. It equips them with the information and insights they need to align cloud spending with business strategy and measure cloud ROI in a meaningful way.
- The Well-Architected Review Program helps companies determine the cloud infrastructure needed to support a specific workload and assess whether their deployed cloud architecture is aligned to those needs. Ideal for companies that have had a solution deployed in the cloud for a period of time, the Well-Architected Review delivers meaningful improvements with minimal disruption.Download our Well-Architected Review Product Guide
Cloud Design & Architecture
As companies embrace cloud-based solutions, it’s all too easy for a group or business unit to adopt a new cloud service without understanding the organization’s existing cloud footprint. This can result in unnecessary duplication of effort, increased costs, greater complexity, and higher risk.
Syntax Design & Architecture Consulting Services helps keep your cloud footprint lean. We work with you to determine the right architecture you’ll need to get your new workload running on the cloud of your choice. And we’ll review your existing cloud applications and services, ensuring you reuse what’s already in place to optimize cloud costs and efficiency.
