PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project consists of delivering proactive Cloud Managed Services for a diverse portfolio of clients, operating across multiple cloud platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, and other hyper scalers, and supporting varied infrastructure models including cloud-native, hybrid, and modernized legacy environments.
The service operates in a multi-client, multi-platform context, requiring continuous coordination of operational activities to ensure high availability, performance, security, and cost efficiency of customer cloud infrastructure.
Service delivery is governed by contractual SLAs, with clear targets for incident response and resolution, service continuity, compliance, and customer satisfaction.
