Monitor and Optimize Real-Time Performance to Accelerate Your Cloud Journey
Cloud is the first building block of an organization’s digital transformation strategy. The on-demand availability of services, including app deployment, storage, and processing power with a pay-as-you-go model, has made the cloud a preferred option for digitalization while significantly lowering costs and the burden of managing a complex tech infrastructure.
Building a robust cloud strategy involves a well-architected approach to migrating infrastructure and application to the cloud and optimizing resources by understanding the organization’s IT universe—from hardware to the business processes it supports. Successful cloud migration requires moving all applications and hardware supporting a given business process to the cloud optimally and within the given budget and timelines.
CriticalRiver’s application dependency modeling rightly empowers organizations to identify and prioritize applications for migration by providing the “used-by” and “depends-on” dependencies of the process. Our experts ensure a thorough application assessment that considers all aspects of an application—readiness for a shift to cloud-native services, cost performance, security, and compliance. The application is migrated by creating appropriate runbooks, testing waves, and the most suitable security, governance, and security models.

The CriticalRiver Solution
At CriticalRiver, we leverage our robust and transparent ecosystem, global presence, and experienced consultants to accelerate your cloud migration, optimization, and digital transformation journey.
Application and Infrastructure Discovery
Our discovery mechanism, combined with our questionnaire and toolset, discovers all the applications, business services, and underlying infrastructure, establishes dependencies, and provides a complete picture of an enterprise’s IT universe for migration and implementing solid governance practices to reduce migration risks.
Our non-intrusive app discovery methodologies help you discover your IT assets and establish dependencies to map the data flow. Our offerings can help in providing:
- Visualization of your infrastructure, applications, and business process
- Technological and business dependencies
- Integration with existing CMDB systems
- Improved development by identifying repeat/redundant code
Application Assessment
Modernizing legacy and mainframe applications to cloud-native requires organizations to recalibrate their application landscape, making it more responsive and resilient at enterprise scale. This also requires dealing with issues such as resistance to change, fear of business disruption, uncertainty about the end state, managing old and new systems together, time and cost of transformation, distributed or incomplete business knowledge of legacy systems, and the steep learning curve of new technology that may make modernization challenging to adopt Our application assessment tools and methodologies offerings help you analyze and document the business logic implemented in a legacy application. This provides organizations with the much-need confidence in modernizing legacy applications. CriticalRiver is instrumental in enabling you to:
- Identify and extract the business rules
- Get detailed information on code complexity and technical debt
- Drive a comprehensive and clear modernization roadmap
- Improve development by identifying repeat and redundant code
Application Modernization
Application Modernization supports a transformational journey from an obsolete and complex business application to a modern cloud-native app that is scalable and maximizes value from existing IT investments. Application modernization offers a comprehensive solution that achieves faster speed-to-market, competitive advantage, and cost savings while powering your digital transformation journey.
