The resulting data set is shared across Dell EMC Cloud Application Profiling service offerings to provide a single, comprehensive application portfolio view, built for quick results and to minimize resource time commitments. When you need to optimize your application portfolio, start by analyzing your applications to identify cost savings, then modernize existing apps to be cloud native, migrate to a new platform, or retire under performers. Regardless of the drivers, it is vital to understand how infrastructure and applications interact relative to business priorities. In order to enable optimal transformation decision-making, this service provides an accurate, reliable, and timely inventory of networks, systems, and apps in the current environment.

If you’re considering moving applications to the cloud, make fact based decisions about application placement. Collecting accurate data is the first step, followed by the analysis, classification, and ranking of applications based on business value. Once you have an inventory of servers, network devices, databases, and applications, you can map inter dependencies — an exercise that helps you decide whether an application requires reinvestment, platforming, retirement, or retention. You’ll need to arrive at the answers quickly as you seek to modernize your portfolio and offer IT-as-a-Service (ITaaS). And using Dell EMC automated tools based approach to the alignment process gets you there 50 percent faster with fewer resources than manual techniques. Accelerate your transformation with an automated approach. The Application Blueprinting Advisory Service uses an automated approach to accelerate data collection, and analysis to provide a view of the application portfolio.

Enable businesses to continuously deliver differentiated value by accelerating the development and deployment life cycle of intelligent cloud-native applications.

Dell EMC Cloud Suitability

Which cloud option is best suited for my application and how readily will the application move to the new cloud platform. Leveraging findings from disposition analysis, we dive more deeply into application workload characteristics to determine the best cloud model; public, private or hybrid. A weighting of business and technical rules is applied and combined with a composite workload suitability score resulting in a Cloud Fit Index rating. The index ranges from Excellent — indicating that a choice of cloud options will be suitable and the level of effort required to move to the cloud is minimal; to poor designated as unfeasible or not cost-effective to move to the cloud. Aggregating results across the application portfolio provides a powerful strategic plan for future cloud computing. Provides developers, data analysts and IT operators with an “it just works” user experience simplifying how applications are built, deployed, operated and managed and how data is gather, analyzed and acted upon.

Disposition Analysis

Looking at both business and IT alignment, we determine how best to invest in each application. The four investment categories used for traditional applications are build new/modernize, migrate, retire or retain. Applications that align with modernize include those that provide high value to the future plans of the organization and offer low risk. Applications that are tagged to be migrated are running on outdated technology or are being offered by high risk vendors. There are applications that may have weak or missing business functionality or run on a weak technology platform that you will want to retire. Finally, there are applications that you will want to retain as they are inexpensive to run. All of these characteristics are tied to a rules engine, automating and reducing the required time and resources. With Dell EMC Cloud Application Profiling services cloud suitability answers questions.
