Hybrid Cloud / Multi-Cloud

Cloud data migrations are complex and challenging, because they usually deal with moving data from complex legacy environments with complex data architectures involving all types of data sets–structured, unstructured, sensitive, business glossaries etc.

Enterprises also don’t want their customers exposed to broken production applications or processes due to migration. In addition, migration projects always demand more technology specialists, both during and after the migration, to assure their success.

While Cloud solves some problems associated with on premises systems, it also creates new levels of complexity. Subject matter experts, database virtualization, significant testing and mock releases with staff and partners have to all come together for smooth implementation.

What complicates things at some organizations even further is the fact that the single cloud vendor approach is increasingly replaced by a multi-cloud computing vendor method where lock-in to a single vendor is minimized. Some enterprises even want/require the clouds to be interoperable.

These technology investments in hybrid-cloud or multi-cloud add a lot of complexity as well as risk, if critical workloads are on a single cloud provider. Therefore, it is critical to know all your legacy data and information assets to implement a successful multi- or hybrid cloud strategy.

Orion Governance’s EIIG provides a self-defined data fabric to establish a centralized and federated view of all data in this complex data environment to ensure the success of cloud migrations.

Exfiltration of business sensitive data by internal resources. Enterprise Security has no visibility into how sensitive information flows within their landscape. The financial and reputational cost of data loss can be catastrophic to a company.

• Provide end-to-end visibility into how sensitive assets move through the enterprise’s landscape
• Enhance controls and prevent data exfiltration

EIIG enables the client to understand how sensitive assets flow through their IT landscape. Gaining visibility into the access controls during the transit of such sensitive data can help reduce the operational risk exposure significantly and thus avoid potentially serious financial implications.

An enterprise software company offers a cloud-based white-label solution. One client wants to use one cloud platform to host this solution while another client wants to use a different cloud vendor. The company needs to manage the expectations of both clients in reliably providing their white-label solution.

EIIG facilitates a multi-cloud approach to enable the software vendor to meet both clients’ needs in using their white-label product. Deploying the multi-cloud solution, EIIG can help provide the traceability and transparency of the entire data supply chain. As a result, each client’s specific needs are addressed so that everything is being captured and transmitted through the complex architectures correctly.

Orion EIIG provides the necessary layer to build trust that data is flowing correctly through the data supply chain.

EIIG helped reduce costs by eliminating redundant tools that do the same things in hybrid/multi-cloud environments.
