CLOUD GOVERNANCE & OPERATING MODEL

{{Binding rules and an operating model that grows with you}}

We define policies and cost control on the basis of your existing roles, models and structures. The operating model covers a fitting provisioning and service model and settles responsibilities and security, so your cloud stays governed, compliant and sovereign.

THE SERVICE

A governed and compliant cloud

We define policies, cost control and the operating model on the basis of your structures, so your cloud stays {{governed and sovereign}}.

General
Deep dive
1

Policies

One uniform rulebook gives your cloud dependable guardrails.

Azure Policy, policy-as-code, guardrails, naming standards, tagging, compliance baseline

2

Cost control

Budgets and steering keep spending transparent and under control.

FinOps, budgets, chargeback, cost management, anomaly alerts, rightsizing

3

Provisioning model

A fitting provisioning model makes new resources available in a standardised way.

Self-service, IaC, landing zone vending, approval workflows, standard templates, automation

4

Service model

A defined service model settles operation, support and the division of responsibility.

Operating model, SLAs, support levels, shared responsibility, operational processes, escalation

5

Roles & responsibility

Well-defined roles settle who owns which tasks and decisions.

RBAC, RACI, role model, permission concept, responsibility matrix, escalation paths

6

Security & compliance

Evidence and controls keep your cloud compliant and ready for audit.

Compliance controls, audit logs, evidence trails, data protection, sovereignty, reporting

OUR APPROACH

Governance and operating model in five steps

1

Analysis

We capture existing roles, models and structures.

1

Analysis

We take in your existing roles, processes and steering structures rather than designing a parallel organisation. Existing requirements and responsibilities we bring into view as the starting point.

You receive a picture of what governance and operating model build on. This intake determines the shape of the rulebook.

Rulebook

We define policies, guardrails and naming standards.

2

Rulebook

We settle policies through Azure Policy and policy-as-code and anchor guardrails, naming standards and tagging. A compliance baseline determines how resources are provisioned and secured.

Risky or unstructured use is bounded from the outset and stays traceable. On this rulebook the operating model builds.

Operating model

We shape provisioning model, service model and roles.

3

Operating model

We shape a fitting provisioning and service model with self-service, landing zone vending and approval workflows. Roles, ownership and shared responsibility we settle through RBAC and a RACI matrix.

Operation and steering mesh day to day, and every role knows its tasks and rights. On this model the cost steering builds.

Cost steering

Budgets and FinOps keep spending transparent and steerable.

4

Cost steering

We set up cost steering through FinOps, budgets, chargeback and cost management. Anomaly alerts and rightsizing uncover deviations and savings potential early.

Those responsible see early where resources are tied up and can steer against it. The transparency gained feeds into the ongoing anchoring.

5

Anchoring

We anchor evidence, controls and operation for the long term.

5

Anchoring

We anchor compliance controls, audit logs and evidence trails where your environment is steered. Reporting, approval routes and escalation paths we agree with your teams.

Rules take effect in operation rather than only on paper, and your cloud stays ready for audit. Sovereignty and compliance requirements we examine individually in each context.

YOUR BENEFITS

Why {{thinformatics}}

Built on your organisation

Existing roles, models and structures are the starting point, not an imported template.

Governance and operation joined

Rules and operating model mesh instead of standing side by side.

Cost in hand

FinOps makes spending transparent and steerable for the long term.

Security anchored

Compliance and data sovereignty are built firmly into the guardrails.

Sovereign and compliant

BSI C5 and KRITIS are taken into account as auditable requirements.

A model that grows along

The operating model carries further teams, workloads and requirements.

Frequently asked {{questions}}

FAQ

Answers to the questions we are asked most often about cloud governance and the operating model.

What do cloud governance and an operating model achieve?
Cloud governance and an operating model make sure your cloud stays governed, compliant and sovereign. We define policies and cost control on the basis of your existing roles, models and structures. The operating model covers a fitting provisioning and service model and settles responsibilities and security. That prevents sprawl, keeps you on top of usage and cost and makes sure decisions are taken to traceable rules.
How are policies and cost control defined?
We develop policies and cost control on the basis of your existing roles, models and structures rather than imposing outside templates. Rules settle how resources are provisioned, named and secured; cost control creates transparency over usage and consumption. Drawing on the cloud therefore becomes steerable and traceable. Those responsible see early where resources are tied up and can steer against it on a firm basis, before usage and structure drift apart.
What does the operating model settle?
The operating model covers a fitting provisioning and service model and settles responsibilities and security. It establishes who provisions resources, who runs them and how users draw on services. Roles, ownership and security requirements are settled so that operation and steering fit together day to day. Everyone involved therefore knows which tasks and rights apply, and your cloud can be run dependably and in good order.
How does the cloud stay compliant and sovereign?
Policies, a well-defined operating model and cost control keep your cloud governed, compliant and sovereign. Security requirements and ownership are anchored where your environment is steered, so rules do not merely exist on paper but take effect in operation. Sovereignty requirements we take into account in structure and provisioning. Concrete compliance and data protection requirements we examine individually in each context, without making blanket promises or giving guarantees.
How does the operating model build on existing structures?
We build on your existing roles, models and structures rather than creating a parallel organisation. Existing responsibilities and processes feed into governance and the operating model and are extended where the cloud raises new requirements. The steering therefore fits into your working day and is carried by the teams. That eases acceptance and makes sure rules and operation are genuinely lived.
