IBM i cloud hosting allows you to run your workloads in a secure, scalable cloud environment without maintaining physical infrastructure on-premises. This model not only delivers the same reliability and performance as IBM i but also enables cost-efficiency, dynamic scaling, reduced hardware management, and remote accessibility.

What is the difference between public and private cloud hosting?
Public cloud hosting uses shared infrastructure from providers like AWS or Azure, offering flexibility and lower upfront costs. Private cloud hosting provides a dedicated environment customized to your organization’s needs, offering more control and compliance. Both models support IBM i workloads, but the right choice depends on your budget, business goals, and security posture.
Can I switch between public and private cloud models after an engagement?
Definitely. Our hosting services are designed to evolve with your business. Whether you want to start with a public cloud deployment and shift to a private cloud later (or vice versa), we support flexible transitions based on your growth and governance needs.
How does public/private cloud migration differ from lift-and-shift?
Public or private cloud migration is a strategic process where we assess your IBM i environment, identify interdependencies, and design a tailored roadmap to move workloads into public or private clouds with enhanced security, agility, and cost optimization. On the other hand, lift-and-shift is a faster migration approach that moves workloads with no major changes to application stacks. The former is better for long-term scalability and modernization while the latter is ideal when cost-efficiency and speed are priorities.
How long does it take to migrate IBM i workloads to the cloud?
Migration timelines vary based on the complexity of your environment, the number of applications, and the data volumes involved. You may contact our experts to create a tailored timeframe for your project.
Will my existing applications and integrations work after migration?
Absolutely. We assess your business requirements and system dependencies as part of the planning phase to ensure that your existing integrations work seamlessly post-migration.
How do you handle compliance and security during migration?
We assess your current infrastructure and design migration strategies that meet enterprise security and compliance standards. By adhering to standards like ISO 27001 and ISO 42001, we ensure your applications, data, and workloads are protected throughout the process.
How does DR modernization differ from backup modernization?
Disaster Recovery (DR) modernization focuses on restoring operations quickly after unexpected disruptions, ensuring uptime and resilience. Backup modernization, on the other hand, is about ensuring your data is protected and recoverable when needed.
How do your Backup and DR Modernization solutions differ from traditional ones?
Traditional backup and DR methods often rely on manual processes, limited recovery speed, and rigid infrastructure. Our backup modernization ensures faster restoration, reliable data protection, and stronger compliance, while our DR modernization accelerates recovery times, minimizes downtime, and reduces disruption risks. Together, they provide a resilient, future-ready safety net for IBM i workloads.
Who will have access to my data in the cloud?
We implement advanced security mechanisms like role-based access, multi-factor authentication, and audit trails to ensure only authorized personnel have visibility into your IBM i data and infrastructure.
