Faced with the challenge of digitizing business, many companies have been adopting the strategy of migrating their IT structure to the cloud. This is largely because this approach promises to generate a series of benefits, such as cost reduction and ease of resource management. Whether managing public, private, or even hybrid clouds, these results can only be achieved with a comprehensive strategy. It is essential to seek a cloud provider with experience in this type of project. Furthermore, relying on the best and latest cloud computing solutions also makes all the difference. When companies do not follow this roadmap strictly, they face a series of problems, such as difficulty maintaining legacy systems and even cost management challenges. In this article, we present the main solutions used by Edge UOL in the modernization of IT infrastructure in the cloud.
Most companies already possess a monolithic application available in their data center. Therefore, the challenge is to modernize this structure, moving it to the cloud. By choosing the best technologies available on the market, it becomes possible to execute this application modernization project without difficulties or headaches. At Edge UOL, we work with recommended technological solutions to optimize and accelerate the progress of this project securely.
With this technology, the client’s original application, previously hosted in its data center, is modularized into small blocks, also known as microservices. In this way, if any problem is identified, only one block becomes unavailable and can be corrected immediately. In a monolithic application, the entire system would be affected, generating total downtime. In this process, the containerization and modularization of the application allow for gains in scale and ensure the high availability of services. To this end, state-of-the-art technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes are used.
To enable cloud modernization, development and infrastructure teams need to work in partnership. This is because it is precisely this synergy that will guarantee the speed and continuity of deliveries. To promote the integration of both teams and continuous interaction between professionals, at Edge UOL we have created a deployment pipeline. It monitors code changes, performs the deploy of new versions, executes tests on new code automatically, and concludes by releasing the 100% functional application to production. The CI/CD (continuous integration/continuous delivery) method guides the frequent delivery of applications to customers, using automation in the development stages. Basically, the method guides the DevOps workflow. Thus, Edge UOL ensures continuous integration, delivery, and deployment in cloud modernization.
It is worth noting that the application is often a legacy system. As such, its modernization consists of mapping other elements of its structure, such as databases, which also need to be integrated. Hence the importance of integrating applications via REST services. This approach will ensure that layers of legacy structures are capable of working with new applications. Thus, the company is certain that services will always be available, avoiding any type of downtime.
APIs, also known as application programming interfaces, are used in cloud modernization to ensure backward compatibility. In short, they are used as tools that allow the integration of new applications, designed for cloud structures, with the legacy system. Without proper API lifecycle management, companies risk having operational problems in the cloud and in service delivery.
Through event-driven architectures, it is not necessary to worry about the infrastructure where applications are running. Such architectures, besides being highly available, are fault-tolerant; furthermore, resource scalability is on-demand, and there are no costs for inactivity. As you can see, Edge UOL has the best solutions and the perfect strategy to modernize your application, migrating it to the cloud. Additionally, our specialists have vast experience in this type of project. If you are looking for a secure and consistent cloud migration solution with minimal application interruption, count on Edge UOL. Want to know more? Discover our services!
