Rehost
Migrate applications to the cloud with minimal changes by lifting and shifting existing workloads to modern infrastructure. This accelerates cloud adoption with lower effort and risk, reduces dependency on legacy hardware, and enables immediate benefits such as improved availability, scalability, and operational efficiency.
Reconfigure & Remediate
Right-size and optimize workloads by tuning resources, containerizing, and updating code, frameworks, and dependencies. This reduces cost, resolves technical debt, and establishes stability, compliance, and readiness for deeper modernization.
Refactor & Restructure
Restructure applications into modular services, APIs, and cloud-native components that improve scalability, performance, and maintainability.
Rearchitect & Reuse
Redesign application architecture to fully leverage the latest Azure services (PaaS, serverless, data platforms), while reusing proven assets and patterns for maximum cost consolidation, resiliency, and AI-readiness.
Rebuild
Recreate the application from the ground up using modern cloud-native technologies, architectures, and development frameworks. This approach delivers maximum innovation potential, enabling organizations to eliminate legacy limitations, adopt advanced capabilities (AI, event-driven, microservices), and achieve long-term agility, performance, and competitive differentiation.
FinOps
Turn FinOps insights into measurable impact by modernizing the legacy workloads driving excessive cloud spend. Cohort’s AI-assisted delivery model, led by former Microsoft, AWS, and Accenture architects, delivers modernization outcomes that accelerate ROI, reduce run-rate, and sustain long-term FinOps value.

Modernization The Cloud Modernization Imperative
Why “Good Enough” Is No Longer Enough For more than a decade, organizations have been told they need to “move to the cloud.” Many did—at least partially. Applications were lifted and shifted. Virtual machines replaced physical servers. Costs moved from CapEx to OpEx. On paper, the box was checked. But today, that version of cloud […]
