Application Health Checks

Understand How Your Enterprise Application and Related Processes Can Be Improved

Sierra-Cedar offers Application Health Checks to help our clients understand where improvements can be made in the areas of user capability, business process alignment, configuration, and security. We perform an assessment of pain points, evaluate user capabilities, investigate the setup of the system, review business process flows, and analyze the security framework. In addition, we will evaluate the portfolio of reports and analytics, business workflows, and integrations to determine how well these objects are meeting the requirements and ambitions of the organization. The result of the Application Health Check will include an assessment of the current state and suggestions for improvement in each of these areas:

User capability and application usage
Business processing and configuration by functional area
Workflow processing
Integrations

Amazon Web Services

Move Applications to AWS Cloud for Flexibility, Reliability, and Cost Savings

An AWS cloud migration can provide the agility, scalability, security, reliability, and operational efficiency well beyond that of a traditional data center. To get the most value from this investment, it helps to work with a partner with a track record of successful AWS migrations.

Whether your organization is just starting to look at Amazon Web Services (AWS) for its future data center needs or if it’s an existing AWS customer, Sierra-Cedar can help evaluate workloads to determine the right application migration approach and fit.

We have been an AWS partner since 2016 and have earned the following designations:

AWS Advanced Consulting Partner
Public Sector Channel Partner
Oracle Competency
AWS Reseller

We also have 100 AWS certifications and have completed the AWS migrations of many larger PeopleSoft environments, Hyperion environments, and websites. We also completed proof of concept migration projects for non-Oracle applications as well as leveraging AWS for a disaster recovery site as a replacement for a traditional on-premise disaster recovery facility. With our experience, we can help guide your organization to AWS success.
