Cloud and Data Services

A managed foundation for your digital operations.

Greenovus Cloud helps organisations configure, migrate and manage the environments and data that support their websites, applications and business services.

We bring cloud administration, data management and operational support into a defined service arrangement—with clear responsibilities for access, performance, recovery and cost.

Whether you are preparing a new platform for launch or reviewing an existing environment, we help establish what it needs and how it will be managed.

03 / 05

One connected service.
A complete perspective.

01 / Cloud and Data Services

Understand your environment. Establish control. Plan for continuity.

Digital services depend on more than hosting capacity. They require appropriate configuration, controlled access, maintained databases and practical arrangements for responding to disruption.

We help you understand these dependencies and assign responsibility for the work involved. Our approach considers the purpose of each system, the information it handles, its expected usage and the impact of an interruption.

The resulting scope identifies the environments covered, the activities commissioned and the responsibilities retained by your organisation and other providers.

02 / Cloud and Data Services

What we provide

01

Cloud environments and hosting management

Establish an environment suited to your application and its operating requirements.

We configure and administer agreed cloud and hosting resources, including computing, storage and supporting services. Where required, the scope includes separate development, testing and production environments.

Capacity, access and configuration decisions reflect the workload and the agreed operating budget.

02

Application deployment

Move approved software into its intended environment through a controlled release process.

We support deployment configuration, environment settings and release procedures, coordinating with the development team and relevant providers.

Deployment plans identify prerequisites, responsibilities and the arrangements for reverting a release where necessary.

03

Database administration

Support the information systems behind your digital services.

We provide agreed database setup, configuration, access administration and routine maintenance. The scope may include performance reviews, storage management and operational checks.

Responsibilities are defined around the database technology, the application and the information being processed.

04

Data migration

Transfer information through a planned and verifiable process.

We assess the source and destination, agree the data to be moved and define the transformation and validation work required.

Migration planning can include trial transfers, reconciliation checks, cutover arrangements and a recovery plan. Your organisation confirms the business meaning and completeness of the transferred information against agreed criteria.

05

Access management

Make administrative responsibility and access permissions clear.

We configure agreed user roles, privileged access and authentication controls. Access arrangements identify who can administer each environment and how changes are authorised.

Where commissioned, periodic reviews help identify accounts or permissions that require amendment or removal.

06

Backup and recovery

Define how essential information and systems will be protected and restored.

We establish backup schedules, retention settings and restoration procedures for the systems in scope. Recovery objectives are agreed in relation to business needs, technical dependencies and budget.

Restoration testing can be included to assess whether the agreed arrangements work in practice and to record any corrective actions.

07

Monitoring and operational review

Maintain visibility of the condition of supported environments.

We configure and review agreed alerts, logs and service indicators to help identify issues requiring attention.

The service agreement distinguishes automated monitoring from staffed response, specifying review frequency, support hours and escalation responsibilities.

08

Cloud cost management

Understand what your environment costs and why.

We help organise usage information, establish budgets or alerts and review changes in expenditure. Where appropriate, we identify opportunities to adjust capacity, storage or configuration.

Recommendations consider operating needs and service commitments alongside potential savings.

Discuss Your Service Requirements
03 / Cloud and Data Services

Clear visibility of your cloud costs.

We distinguish three components when preparing a proposal.

01

Implementation

The engineering work required to configure, migrate or change an environment.

02

Ongoing management

The recurring Greenovus services commissioned to administer and support defined systems.

03

Third-party consumption and licences

Charges for computing, storage, data transfer, software and other supplier services.

Where practical, supplier accounts remain in the client’s name, with authorised access delegated to Greenovus. Where a different arrangement is required, billing, access and transfer provisions are documented.

This structure helps your organisation understand its commitments and approve changes with the relevant cost information.

04 / Cloud and Data Services

Data arrangements matched to your requirements.

01

Hosting and processing locations

We identify the proposed hosting and backup locations, together with relevant support-access arrangements. These are considered separately so that your organisation can assess where its information is stored and accessed.

02

Information lifecycle

Where included in the scope, we configure retention, archiving and deletion processes against your approved requirements.

03

Provider responsibilities

Cloud operations may involve Greenovus, the infrastructure provider, software vendors and your internal team. We document the relevant division of responsibility and identify dependencies that affect delivery.

04

Sensitive systems

Environments handling sensitive information or supporting critical services require additional consideration. We define the necessary technical controls and specialist assurance work before making production-service commitments.

Your organisation retains responsibility for determining its legal and sector-specific obligations, supported by appropriate professional advice.

05 / Cloud and Data Services

How we begin

01

1. Assess the current position

We review the systems, available documentation, access arrangements, suppliers, operating costs and known issues relevant to the engagement.

02

2. Define the required service

We agree the environments covered, management tasks, recovery requirements, support coverage and client responsibilities.

03

3. Implement or transition

We configure the agreed arrangements or take over defined responsibilities through a planned transition. Material gaps and dependencies are recorded and assigned for action.

04

4. Review and improve

Where ongoing management is commissioned, service reviews provide visibility of completed work, incidents, capacity, costs and recommended changes.

06 / Cloud and Data Services

What your organisation receives

Depending on the engagement, deliverables may include:

  • An inventory of supported environments and key dependencies.
  • Environment configuration and deployment documentation.
  • An access and responsibility record.
  • Migration plans and validation results.
  • Backup schedules and restoration procedures.
  • Recovery-test records where testing is commissioned.
  • Monitoring and escalation arrangements.
  • Usage and cost reports.
  • A prioritised record of risks and recommended improvements.
  • Agreed handover and transition documentation.

The proposal specifies the deliverables and reporting frequency, together with any limitations or third-party dependencies.

07 / Cloud and Data Services

Connected to the rest of your technology service.

Cloud management works best when it is coordinated with application development, maintenance and release planning.

Greenovus can bring these responsibilities together through the Greenovus Digital Partnership, connecting ongoing operations with approved technical improvements and a common reporting structure.
