Analysis and automation facilitate rapid cloud migrations in federal health space
BY TERYN O'BRIEN
For many enterprises and federal agencies, moving to the cloud was a multi-year objective. Yet a global pandemic has spurred digital transformations as nations and industries react to unprecedented challenges in healthcare, economic and regulatory logistics.
While the historic challenges of moving sensitive data and operations to cloud environments may have slowed certain industry sectors from making early moves, recent years have enabled an eager services ecosystem ready to facilitate expedited cloud migrations.
“I actually work in the federal health space most, and our ability to stand up an application or service, whether it’s a Salesforce service or the Amazon Web Services platform, we’ve been able to stand up contact tracing for local agencies, for state agencies,” said Shawn Snyder (pictured), managing director at Deloitte Global Services Ltd. “We’ve been able to set up cloud native services that allow the data that’s getting collected across different organizations to make meaningful information using machine learning … and they can be stood up very quickly and cost-effectively.”
Synder spoke with Rebecca Knight, host of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio, during AWS re:Invent. They discussed how organizations can rethink cloud migrations for cost savings and simplified computing infrastructures, as well as how Deloitte’s investment in automation technologies, alongside it’s established partnerships, facilitates rapid cloud migrations even in the face of a global pandemic.

Analysis helps clients achieve digital transformation, save money
Snyder leads the cloud migration offering for the government and public sector clients at Deloitte, where intentional analysis takes place for each client, according to Snyder.
“Especially post-COVID … there’s actually more and more products and aid that’s being made available. [Clients] need more flexibility, so we did a bunch of analysis around what does that technology stack look like? What are the cost drivers? Then we build out what the future would look like,” Snyder explained. “How could [clients] take advantage of native services and reduce licensing costs? How could they upgrade through products? We have a seamless way to upgrade to cloud suitable operating systems.”
To address client needs, Deloitte has invested in automation services and has teamed up with infrastructure powerhouses, including Amazon Web Services Inc. The close ties to AWS means Deloitte can move rapidly on client cloud migrations.
“Because of our qualifications of the amount of migrations we do globally, as well as our methodology and toolset, we’re able to offer this joint map program, which allows us to team with AWS to go on site and quickly use our tools to diagnose what applications are actually cloud-ready to move, how fast can they move,” Snyder said.
Deloitte will also provide information regarding the technical configurations of a client’s applications, which servers they reside on, and the overall affinity of being able to move those applications to the cloud.
“If it’s not cloud-suitable, we can detect it and how quickly we could get it cloud-suitable,” Snyder said. “The migration is actually automated with the information collected during the diagnostics — the landing zones and all the sizing of the infrastructures able to be sized appropriately based on the information collected.”
