79% Higher Launch Rate
89% Faster Modernizations
No cost to customers
What Are The Benefits?
-
Customer savings – historical data show that customers use of an OMA results in average savings of 76% on IT OpEx
-
Shorter time to realized value - the repeatable data-driven OMA process ensures efficient, cost-effective cloud-native architectures and deployments on AWS
-
Accelerated modernization and migration – using an OMA can reduce migration assessment cycle time and effort. The data provided by an OMA enables optimization of the customer's Microsoft and other proprietary licensing estate and identifies the savings that can be realized by deploying a cloud-native environment on AWS
-
Access to resources and tools – eligible partners and customers have access to AWS-funded modernization tools, deliverables, and reports
-
Competitive necessity – the OMA provides cost effective method for customers to use current best practices for cloud deployment. The OMA's systematized approach for application and infrastructure assessments, generates real data to support optimized adoption of AWS using modern cloud-native services
-
Single source of data - the OMA tool provides a platform that captures and integrates all discovery data with assessment results for a consistent view of all migration data without spreadsheets

OMA Program Results
When to Engage the OMA
We believe that modernization is best undertaken as part of the cloud migration plan from the start. With an OMA, we identify modernization opportunities and recommend the best cloud- native architectures. This typically saves over 70% compared to a lift and shift deployment.
-
Business Case DevelopmentUnderstanding TCO is a common challenge for enterprises planning cloud migrations. OMA provides detailed and precise inputs to make financial projections to justify a migration to AWS.
OMA outputs include specific instance types, licenses, and AWS cloud-native service recommendations that enable precise cloud cost estimation.
Our business cases reduce uncertainty and risk from cloud migration projects and expedite project funding approvals. -
Application Modernization and Cloud-Native ServicesEnterprises often start with lift-and-shift migrations with the intent to modernize "later."
Simply replicating existing environments in the cloud often leads to costly deployments. Moreover, companies usually have difficulty sustaining the momentum necessary to complete the modernization phase of migrations.

"Using Tidal we were able to rapidly assess our infrastructure and applications for migration to AWS. The data-driven insights in the platform allowed us to develop a plan and reference architecture to transform our applications, saving the city considerable time and costs versus competing assessment techniques. Additionally Tidal Calculator was able to help us predict what our costs would be for both lift & shift, and transformative migrations."
