CL Track
Cloud Blueprints
Cloud blueprints encode patterns that hold up after the pilot. Landing zones, cost governance, reliability, and platform operations are framed as phased playbooks with working tools — so cloud decisions become repeatable delivery, not slideware.
10 blueprints — complete track
Decide Which Workloads Move, Stay, or Die — Before the Migration Bill Arrives
Run a structured cloud-readiness assessment that assigns each workload a disposition — retain, retire, rehost, replatform, refactor, or replace — with prerequisites and waves.
Design a Cloud Landing Zone That Ships Workloads — Not One Teams Route Around to Meet a Deadline
Design a secure, scalable cloud landing zone sized to real workloads — identity, network, policy, logging, cost, and recovery that teams actually use.
Stop One Compromised Credential from Owning Your Entire Cloud Estate — Design Governed Identity and Access
Design least-privileged, traceable cloud identity: federation, phishing-resistant MFA, eligible privileged access, workload federation, and tested emergency access.
Design a Cloud Network You Can Actually Operate — Before Flat Trust Boundaries and Egress Bills Force the Redesign
Design secure, scalable cloud networking — topology, IP strategy, DNS, segmentation, and connectivity — with a phased roadmap and validation checklist.
Stop Guessing at the Cloud Bill — Estimate, Allocate, and Optimize Spend Without Breaking Reliability
Build defensible cloud cost estimates, allocate spend to owners, and prioritize optimization that preserves reliability, security, and compliance.
Stop Counting a Cloud Migration Done When the Servers Copy — Prove the Business Capability Actually Runs
Plan and execute a cloud workload migration with dependency discovery, tested rollback, go/no-go criteria, and validated business outcomes — not just copied servers.
Pass Your First Disaster Recovery Exercise Instead of Failing It — a Cloud DR Strategy That Protects Business Capabilities, Not Just Data
Design cloud backup and DR that survives regional outages and ransomware — approved RTO/RPO, immutable backups, tested runbooks, and failover you can prove.
Stop Cloud Security From Silently Drifting Into Your Next Breach
Assess cloud posture across identity, config, network, and encryption — then produce a prioritized, evidence-backed remediation backlog and maturity score.
Stop Every Team from Inventing Its Own Cloud — Build IaC That's Governed, Recoverable, and Drift-Resistant
Design a secure, governed Infrastructure-as-Code operating model: modules, state protection, short-lived pipeline identities, policy-as-code, and drift management.
Stop Confusing "It Deploys" with "It's Ready" — Evidence-Based Production Launch for Cloud Workloads
Run an evidence-based production-readiness review for any cloud workload — blockers, go/no-go criteria, risk acceptance, and operational handover included.
