The journey to a modern data platform within AWS starts with a clear understanding of the workloads and use cases that need to be serviced by the business. Without firm alignment to requirements, you could find cloud platform capabilities lacking or unable to deliver the outcomes your business demands.

For example, the needs of a department focused on operational analytics will differ significantly from one with requirements for transient streaming data. Identifying the right technology for these different needs is a complex and challenging activity and needs accurate data to facilitate any route forward.

Computacenter's Data Assessment and Discovery Service combines manual discovery and automated assessment tools to gather information on your existing data estate. From this, we provide recommendations for the modernisation and migration of workloads to AWS's most appropriate data technologies.

We gain an understanding of your requirements and capabilities through our structured engagement methodology, aligning these to a strategic direction to recommend the most appropriate route to a data-driven future leveraging the AWS cloud platform.

The service focuses on:

• Business case development
• Benefits analysis
• Use case identification and development
• Technology and transformational roadmap
• Capability review
