Overview

Beyond lift-and-shift.

A lift-and-shift gets you to the cloud; cloud modernization makes the cloud pay off. RapidData re-platforms and refactors workloads to cloud-native architectures so they scale elastically, deploy faster and cost less to run.

We decompose monoliths into microservices where it helps, containerise with Kubernetes, adopt serverless and managed data services, and rebuild CI/CD so teams ship safely and often.

Every modernization is driven by a business case with measured performance and cost outcomes, delivered incrementally to manage risk.

Stage 01

Modernization Assessment

We assess applications for modernization value and design the target cloud-native architecture.

01

Application assessment

Identify modernization candidates and value.

02

Target architecture

Cloud-native reference design.

03

Decomposition strategy

Plan monolith-to-microservices where it helps.

04

Business case

Quantify performance and cost outcomes.

Stage 02

Re-platform & Refactor

We containerise, refactor and adopt managed services to unlock cloud-native benefits.

01

Containers & Kubernetes

Portable, scalable workloads.

02

Microservices

Decompose monoliths for agility.

03

Serverless

Event-driven, pay-per-use services.

04

Managed data services

Modern, managed databases and analytics.

Stage 03

CI/CD & Operate

We rebuild delivery pipelines and operate the modernised estate.

01

CI/CD pipelines

Safe, frequent, automated delivery.

02

Observability

Monitor performance and reliability.

03

FinOps

Cost-efficient cloud-native operations.

04

Managed run

Operate and improve under SLA.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is cloud modernization? +

Re-platforming and refactoring workloads to cloud-native architectures — containers, microservices, serverless and managed services — so they gain the performance, scalability and cost efficiency the cloud offers.

How is it different from cloud migration? +

Migration moves workloads to the cloud; modernization changes their architecture to be cloud-native so they realise the cloud's full benefits.

Do we have to rewrite everything? +

No. We modernise incrementally and only where the business case justifies it, managing risk throughout.

Which clouds do you support? +

AWS, Azure and GCP, plus hybrid and sovereign scenarios.

What outcomes can we expect? +

Typically faster deployments, elastic scalability, improved reliability and lower run-cost — baselined and measured.

Do you rebuild our CI/CD? +

Yes. Modernization includes rebuilding delivery pipelines for safe, frequent deployment.
