Next-gen Managed Services

What can we do for you?

Our next-generation Managed Service Provider practice offers a modern approach to managed services. Traditional ways fail to meet evolving business demands, or to maximise the return on your cloud investments. On the other hand, leveraging cloud services fully can empower you to accelerate, tackle existing challenges and capitalise on new opportunities.

Our approach and services helps you to adopt AWS at scale, operate more efficiently and securely, while you can focus on your core business. We extend your team with the necessary operational capabilities including monitoring, incident detection and management, capacity, security and patch management, backup and disaster recovery automations, and cost optimisation advice.

Our certified managed service practice provides proactive, preventative, and detective capabilities that raise the operational bar and help reduce risks. Our managed services are also integrated with additional life-cycle services and solutions we can provide.

Why use our Managed Services?

Consider our managed services when you face concerns, issues or risks such as:

Migrations are stalled due to questions how to manage the new architecture.
Post-migration optimisations are hard to realise; should you move forward?
DIY cloud-ops reduces your ability to focus on differentiation and innovation.
Pressures on operational and technical teams risk missing SLAs.
Resilience continues to be questionable, even though you run in the cloud.
There are questions about security or the ability to demonstrate compliance.
Controlling cost is harder than expected, due to evolving demand.
Building a team of experienced cloud engineers in-house is challenging.

“The AWS Managed Services Provider (MSP) Program validates and recognizes AWS Partners who excel at delivering comprehensive solutions across the entire cloud journey: from planning and migration to ongoing operations and optimization. These AWS partners act as trusted advisors for their customers.

Partner membership in the AWS MSP Program is verified and validated periodically through rigorous third-party audits based on enterprise standards.”

To resolve these kinds of problems and challenges, we can provide you with guidance and implement operational best practices, with our cloud specific focus, certified skills and accumulated experience:

Working with Cambrian Technologies

Cambrian has a track record of successfully designing, deploying and managing cloud services with proven business case results. We combine our experience in managing IT with a focus on AWS to deliver an integrated, next-gen managed service experience.

When you decide to use our managed services, there are several additional value added services and solutions we can provide:

Acceleration－Cambrian is an accredited AWS Advanced Tier partner and operates with a 100% certified team when onboarding your infrastructure and operations. We take an outcome-based approach when designing a plan that is fit for your purpose. As a result, the onboarding process is both accelerated and adapted to meet your goals. We support you in every step of this journey. Our experience in migrating workloads from varied starting points accelerates your migration, modernisation and optimisation.

Integration－You will need to integrate our managed services with your service management and devops processes. In particular in order to benefit from the high degree of automations. This requires integration with your processes and with your tooling. Furthermore, you may need to realign some financial and governance structures. With our experience we help you configure and align processes, procedures and integrate systems to meet your particular preferences.

Optimisation－Once you are onboarded there are many opportunities to improve and innovate – to reduce costs, become more agile and develop new value added services. For example, you may have lifted and shifted your workloads initially and intend to modernise in a next phase. For this to happen, you may need to re-skill your team or equip them with methods and tools to work in a more agile way. We help you design and execute this path, and provide additional experienced resources to move forward.

Complementarity－In addition to using our next-gen managed services, there may be additional activities you would like to source to benefit from economies of scope or specific expertise, such as migration or database modernisation support, modern data analytics and AI services, or systems integration. We also provide software solutions in the areas of cloud identity, devops and monitoring. We can provide you with access to various AWS programmes that complement our managed services.
