Unlock The Power Of The Cloud. Embrace Cloud-Native
Cloud-native deployments are designed to fully utilize the advantages of cloud environments.
Key characteristics include:
- Microservices: Decomposing applications into smaller, independently deployable services.
- Containers: Packaging applications and dependencies into portable units (Docker is common).
- Orchestration (often Kubernetes): Automating container deployment, scaling, and management.
- DevOps and CI/CD: Continuous integration/continuous deployment pipelines for rapid development and release cycles.

Deployment approaches when migrating to cloud-native
Lift and Shift
Taking an existing application and running it in the cloud with minimal changes (often on virtual machines). This is required when we need a quick move to the cloud, often as a first step before modernization.
Refactoring (or Re-architecting)
Breaking down an application into microservices, making it more scalable and cloud friendly.
This can be used when the organizations want to maximize cloud benefits (resiliency, scalability), and existing architecture is a bottleneck.
Cloud-Native Greenfield Development
Building an application from scratch using cloud-native principles (microservices, containers, etc.).
This approach is used when you are starting a new project and want the full cloud-native advantages.
These applications are designed to fully leverage the scalability, resilience, speed, and innovation potential offered by the cloud.
Core Cloud Service Models
IaaS
Organizations migrate from On-premise to IaaS as this eliminates the need to purchase, upgrade and maintain the physical servers and data centers. When there is a requirement for increasing or decreasing resources based on need, we can scale them accordingly. It has a very good approach to disaster recovery as it enables easy replication of infrastructure and data to different cloud regions. IaaS also deploys servers closer to your users in different geographic regions for reduced latency. This way when an organization spends less time focusing on the infrastructure, it ultimately focus on development and innovation.
PaaS
PaaS provides middleware services and runtime environments necessary for building and running applications laying the path for simplified development and deployment. The pre-configured environments and tools streamline the process and shorten release cycles. PaaS platforms have an enhanced scaling feature that handles the incoming spikes in traffic efficiently. With all the available services, organizations will have reduced operational overhead.
SaaS
The SaaS provider manages the infrastructure, software updates, security, and backups, freeing up your IT team. These applications are accessible from anywhere with an internet connection, making them ideal for distributed systems and remote work. Another feature is quick deployment, as there are no lengthy setups required. It is highly scalable, and the organization can easily add or remove users as needed without worrying about the hardware requirements.
Key Considerations
Choosing the right cloud service model involves balancing the following:
- Control vs. Convenience: IaaS offers more control, SaaS offers the most convenience. PaaS is in between.
- Technical Expertise: IaaS requires the most in-house management skills.
- Legacy Systems: Some may be better suited for IaaS (lift and shift), while refactoring may be necessary to fully leverage PaaS and SaaS benefits.
