Data Center & Cloud
Modernization Starts with Your Foundation
Modernization Starts with Your Foundation
Your environment is growing fast.
New demands. More data. Constant change.
But without the right foundation, every improvement adds friction. Legacy systems, cloud silos, and one-off fixes have created a maze that’s tough to manage and risky to scale.
We help you take back control by rebuilding from the base.
From cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments to data centers, we design infrastructure that flexes with your needs—not against them.
The Problem
When Vendors Lead, Outcomes Lag
Too often, vendors try to change your environment to fit their tech instead of the other way around.
But today’s pace of business means:
Apps
Apps are more distributed
Users
Users expect instant access
Security
Security threats evolve daily
AI
AI adds new pressures and new possibilities
The Result
When infrastructure is shaped by vendor priorities, not business needs, the result is over-customized, under-documented systems with rising costs and shrinking agility.
Infrastructure Fit for Purpose
ANM starts engagements by digging into your environment first to determine what tech fits your needs.
Public & Private Cloud Migration
Determine where it makes sense to maintain on-premises systems and when to move out of legacy architecture into public or private clouds—and then manage the budget around those decisions:
- Right-sizing resources
- Optimizing licensing & costs
- Developing charge-back models
- Automating workload deployment
Storage & Compute
Align storage and compute infrastructure to actual workload needs, not vendor quotas.
- Life cycle management
- Resource optimization for cost savings
- Modernization for critical workloads
Visualization
Design, implement, and modernize using industry-leading virtualization platforms, VDI, hypervisors, and end-user computing.
Zero-Trust Data Protection
Ensure your data is recoverable and secure by design with Zero Trust controls for multi-factor authentication, role-based access control, immutable storage, rapid recovery, and air-gapped vaults.
Data Classification
Know where your data lives, who has access, and how to protect it. Strategically implement tools and processes that reduce human error and IT-related risks and exposure.
Turnkey AI Development
Develop custom AI training and inference models (on-prem or cloud) with your data to accelerate operations, reduce waste, and solve business problems.
Application Mobility & Modernization
We evaluate your application stack, identify dependencies, and develop a Control Tower landing zone to securely lift and shift your apps from on-prem to cloud. We find the highest-leverage opportunities to modernize, save costs, and meet your users where they are.
We Don’t Push Platforms. We Center Priorities.
Every engagement starts with one question: What are you trying to achieve?
Then we design the infrastructure to get you there based on how your business actually runs, not how a vendor hopes it does.
We dig into:
Your Data
Your Workloads
Your Applications
how they perform and how they connect
Your Risks & Gaps
Proof In Practice
A large college system provides shared IT services for 13 colleges and 130,000 students. Aging systems and a lack of control in a third-party data center created service delays and risked decentralization.
ANM worked with them to evaluate and design a private cloud architecture using Cisco and Dell.
The results:
Full Application Redundancy
Full Disaster Recovery
Up to 80% Better Performance for Key Applications
