Insight Cloud Care

Public cloud providers (aka Hyperscaler’s) like Microsoft, Azure and Google have designed products for customers to consume in an IaaS, SaaS and PaaS method utilizing a pay-as-you-grow model. Offering licensing options to allow for flexibility to scale up and down in consumption usage. The services are typically billed monthly allowing clients to only pay for infrastructure used in the month. This Opex model allows clients to manage expenses more granularly month-over-month.
Hyperscaler’s offer services and options for clients that allow rapid development and deployment of applications in the cloud.

Moving to a public cloud has its challenges. Where hyperscaler’s provide agility to clients for deploying workloads, most clients can’t leverage the capabilities due to untrained staff, lack of tooling and lack of governance.
Insight provides service offerings to clients as part of Insights managed services portfolio where Insight will manage the clients public cloud for a monthly fee. Included in the service are trained and skilled engineering teams focused on managing the client’s public cloud workloads. The service offering provides outcomes to help clients to be performant, agile, secure, and optimized in the cloud. As part of the service, Insight deploys a suite of tools, commonly called the Cloud Management Platform (CMP). The tools are typically SaaS based vendors and utilized by Insight to monitor, manage, secure, and optimize the clients cloud estates.
