Managing our Cloud Environments To meet our internal and client demand and challenges, we developed Accenture Cloud Platform.


Key Challenges

SHADOW IT Business demand continues to grow and requires IT to respond quickly. Slow response threatens to IT’s ability to meet business needs.

GOVERNANCE While Business demands increase, IT needs to respond and add governance controls, without holding back the pace of innovation.

BILLING / CHARGEBACK Understanding cloud provider billing and showing detailed invoices with IT services and be able to buy smart.

MANAGEMENT IT is pressed to provide services on a granular pricing basis. Existing IT operations and tools do not often work ‘out-of-the-box’ with Cloud.

Migrating to AWS: Building Momentum To support the massive internal and client demand to migrate existing workloads to AWS. Accenture and AWS partnered together to develop a repeatable and scalable method to migrate at scale.


The AWS Migration Framework assists Organisations in: •  Building an AWS Business Case, Strategy, TCO

•  Rationalise the Application Portfolio

•  Design a robust and scalable AWS architecture

•  Define a migration approach and leverage automation tooling

•  Integrate with and augment existing IT Processes
