Engagement Model
Cohort AI-Ready Cloud Modernization delivers structured, fixed-price modernization projects using an off-shore POD-based model with AI-assisted delivery, reusable code, and Microsoft-certified architecture patterns. We target the 40–50% of workloads that can be modernized quickly, delivering results in 2–8 months with 40-60% ROI. Modernize your infrastructure, improve security, and prepare your data for AI – all with predictable cost, clear outcomes, and unmatched velocity.
Outcomes:
- Modernize in months, not years
- Achieve a 30–50% reduction in cloud spend on targeted workloads
- Reduce operational risk and technical debt
- Build a scalable, AI-ready data foundation
- Strengthen your cloud security posture
Lower Cloud Costs: Our approach to cloud-native modernization optimizes cloud workloads, reducing your overall cloud spend without compromising performance or scalability.
AI-Ready Workloads: We refactor legacy applications to support advanced cloud-native services, governance standards, and scalable data platforms - laying the foundation for trusted, enterprise-ready AI.
Increased Security & Efficiency: We strengthen your cloud security posture, accelerate operations, and reduce maintenance burdens through modern DevOps practices and policy-aligned architecture patterns.
Creating value:
AI-Powered Delivery
AI agents, automation, and reusable architecture patterns accelerate time-to-value. Our models are refined with every iteration, continually enhancing customer outcomes.
Fixed-Fee Execution
No change orders. No surprises. Our pricing model is transparent and aligned to results, enabling predictable planning and faster decision-making.
Built-in Microsoft DNA
Founded by former Microsoft IT, engineering, and consulting leaders, Cohort AI-Ready Cloud Modernization is deeply aligned with the Azure Innovate program. We complement Microsoft’s strategic efforts and act as the focused, predictable, and trusted modernization engine for Azure customers.
We're Selective By Design
Cohort AI-Ready Cloud Modernization intentionally scopes only ROI modernization workloads to minimiz
Our A/B/C assessment model identifies:
- Simple workloads: Easiest wins — cloud-native ready, high ROI, low risk. Executed immediately.
- Moderate workloads: Moderate complexity — still within scope, may follow simple workloads in sequencing.
- Complex workloads: Large and complex — still in scope but require deeper assessment and refactoring.
- Other workloads: Out of scope — involve deep dependencies, legacy vendor lock-in, or unclear ROI.
We target only the 40–50% of IaaS workloads that can be modernized rapidly, affordably, and with high ROI.
