Cloud

Nowadays, the introduction and utilization of cloud services is becoming the de facto standard in business. As it is called "Everything as a Service," various cloud services are provided in a great number of areas, and the use of platforms such as public clouds that integrate them is also accelerating. In promoting DX, the provision of a wide variety of cloud services is a great advantage for companies, but with these services competing with each other, companies need to select and utilize the appropriate cloud platform and service for the appropriate area or theme. Cloud services are the backbone and foundation of DX. Companies are required to utilize the cloud in a way that is both cautious and bold.

Featured Cases

Development of Cloud Business Strategy

To improve management and business efficiency, we focused on the asset costs of the existing on-premise data center business. To move away from this high-cost structure, decided to adopt a non-asset approach. As part of this strategy, we planned to withdraw from the existing data center business and launch a new cloud business. In response to the management’s decision to shift from existing businesses to new ventures, contributed by providing environmental analysis and formulating strategies and plans.

Cloud Migration for Data Center Abolition

The client's systems were built and operated separately depending on the development period and department, resulting in disparate architectures, underlying technologies, and data centers. This led to complex inter-system connections and operational issues, including high operating costs associated with multiple data centers. In anticipation of future system renewal and modernization, our initial step was to plan and execute the migration of systems from the data centers to the cloud. We focused on organizing the migration targets and managing each project. For systems lacking a vendor, Baycurrent handled the entire process, including system assessment, architecture design, migration, and operation. The entire lift-up process for all systems was completed in approximately two years.

Migrating Core Systems to the Cloud

The client's core systems, including the mainframe, were built and operated on-premises, with subsystems for each business operation. In updating the core systems, the first step was to promote the migration to the cloud and the elimination of the mainframe. As a quality assurance measure, a comparison test environment was established using the characteristics of the cloud, and rigorous testing was conducted to ensure a stable migration to the cloud. Subsequently, the system was reorganized into microservices for each business operation, and the core system was updated. By utilizing different clouds based on their characteristics, a multi-cloud approach was achieved.

Cases

Expanding Alliances in the Cloud Business

We recommended potential alliance candidates to the client, who was seeking partners for their cloud business. Also supported negotiations with each candidate company, contributing to the expansion of the alliance.

Group-wide CCoE (Cloud Center of Excellence) Business Promotion Support

We supported a major bank in adopting cloud services, achieving improved operational efficiency and security. We enhanced the company-wide cloud usage and strengthened competitiveness through the operation and improvement of the CCoE organization.

AWS Implementation Guideline Creation and Operation Support

We supported the development and implementation of standard guidelines for AWS cloud usage within client companies. By combining client-specific scenarios, considering industry and business characteristics, with cloud best practices, our goal was to create practical and actionable guidelines that go beyond theoretical recommendations. These guidelines were developed in collaboration with the client's IT team. After formulation, provided comprehensive support for applying them to new systems and refactoring existing ones.
