Containers have become a key technology for many organizations migrating to the cloud. Used to package an application with its configuration and OS dependencies, they ensure software runs reliably when moved from one computing environment to another. As well as improving portability, they make it easier to leverage cloud benefits such as cost-optimization, enhanced operability and scalability on-demand.
With containers, cloud migration can be both fast and effective. The technology is also useful in cloud adoption and software deployment scenarios where environments need to be created or extended quickly.
With containers, it’s possible to embrace modern cloud-native approaches without having to recode migrated applications. However, the approach does require expert management and implementation.
When you engage DevOpsGroup for cloud migration or modernisation services, we’ll identify any applications that could benefit from containerisation. Our engineers are experienced in the use of opensource and cloud vendor container technologies and orchestration platforms, from Docker and Kubernetes to Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and Azure Container Instances.
We have the technical skills and in-depth cloud knowledge to help you use containers effectively, whatever your circumstances.

DevOps Insiders Team can handle the entire process, from containerizing applications to managing their orchestration and operation. We regularly run proof of concept migrations using containers to show how the technology works, and we can also develop blueprints to guide in-house teams.
