Managing our Cloud Environments
To meet our internal and client demand and challenges, we developed Accenture Cloud
Platform.
Key Challenges
SHADOW IT
Business demand continues to
grow and requires IT to respond
quickly. Slow response threatens to
IT’s
ability to meet business needs.

GOVERNANCE
While Business demands increase,
IT needs to respond and add
governance controls, without
holding back the pace of innovation.
BILLING / CHARGEBACK
Understanding cloud provider billing
and showing detailed invoices with
IT services and be able to buy
smart.
MANAGEMENT
IT is pressed to provide services on
a granular pricing basis. Existing IT
operations and tools do not often
work ‘out-of-the-box’ with Cloud.

Migrating to AWS: Building Momentum
To support the massive internal and client demand to migrate existing workloads to AWS. Accenture and
AWS partnered together to develop a repeatable and scalable method to migrate at scale.
