Application Modernization: The Benefits of Modernizing with AWS and StratusGrid

For years, forward-thinking companies have left on-premises servers and data centers for the cost-effective advantages of the cloud. And no wonder. Amazon Web Service (AWS) reports average infrastructure cost savings of 31% from cloud computing versus on-premises. 

But as smart as migrating to the cloud is, there’s still another step companies can—and should—take to ensure they’re taking full advantage of their new digital environment:

Modernization.

What is Cloud Application Modernization?

Cloud modernization is the process of upgrading and optimizing your organization’s cloud infrastructure and applications to enhance performance, security, and scalability. In short, it makes all things good about your AWS cloud services even better.

While cloud migration involves moving your data and applications from on-premises infrastructure to the cloud, AWS cloud modernization takes it one giant step further. It entails optimizing these applications to leverage the full potential of cloud features. 

As to where you should turn when the time comes to modernize your cloud environment, seek the experts in AWS cloud modernization: StratusGrid.
