FedRAMP Migration & Maintenance

The What & Why it’s Needed

The majority of Government agencies are using their own servers to house the data they need to run programs. These servers are extremely expensive to maintain, have significant security concerns, and are getting older every year. Migrating to the cloud is a big initiative talked about in Government IT circles, but the process is a huge undertaking.

PROBLEM

Our Government customer was paying through the nose for its server, about 10x higher than if they used Azure or Amazon cloud.

SOLUTION

Synergetics led the readiness analysis and risk-mitigated migration legacy, on-site, and rigid data centers to a modern, virtual, and managed platform. We successfully modernized the architecture to automatically scale up AND down in response to demand surges and lulls – saving costs of over-purchasing infrastructure to always support unusually high usage.

IMPACT FOR THE CUSTOMER

The cloud decreased our customer’s operation and maintenance cost by 50%, increased the reliability/uptime of their servers, and increased the security and access control to their data.

ONGOING BENEFIT

The customer realized significant (6-figure), ongoing savings on server costs, and saw that Synergetics was a trustworthy partner, as the solution was not the most profitable one for Synergetics but was the best option for the customer. The customer is more than ever inspired to further unify its solutions and leverage managed cloud services that Synergetics expertly offers.
