Map the migration dependencies
Understand directory and federation dependencies, application ownership and authentication flows. Separate applications ready to move from those needing code or integration changes.
On-premises to cloud
Move identity to the cloud. Bring your applications with you.
Legacy authentication can hold up an otherwise sound cloud migration. We combine identity architecture with development expertise to move services to the cloud and modernise authentication in your own applications.
Discuss your cloud migrationThe difficult dependencies are often inside your applications.
Our team brings experience of on-premises to cloud identity migration at scale. We look at how applications authenticate, what depends on existing directories and federation, and what needs to change before infrastructure can be retired.
Design a workable transition
Agree the target cloud identity model, coexistence and migration waves. Establish which dependencies must remain during transition and the criteria for retiring them.
Modernise application authentication
Provide technical guidance to your developers or make the changes directly. Introduce suitable standards such as OpenID Connect or SAML, with application authorisation and user identity mapping considered alongside sign-in.
Test, migrate and retire
Validate user journeys, permissions and operational behaviour. Move in agreed waves, plan rollback and confirm remaining dependencies before decommissioning legacy services.
What you take forward
Working capability. Clear ownership.
We agree the deliverables and acceptance criteria around your scope before work begins.
- Application authentication and dependency assessment
- Target identity design and migration roadmap
- Agreed application changes, tested with your teams
- Cutover, rollback and legacy retirement criteria
Choose the level of development support you need.
We can advise your engineering teams, work alongside them on difficult integrations, or deliver the agreed authentication changes ourselves. This work can follow an estate rationalisation assessment or support an existing migration programme.
Is legacy authentication holding up your cloud move?
Tell us which identity services and applications need to move, and whether you need architecture guidance, developers or both.
