HYBRID & MULTI-CLOUD ARCHITECTURE

{{The technical target picture for a solid cloud landscape}}

We develop reference architectures and landing zone designs for hybrid and multi-cloud environments to proven frameworks such as WAF, CAF and BSI C5. As a blueprint it joins network, identity, workloads and sovereignty and builds on your existing IT landscape.

THE SERVICE

A blueprint for hybrid and multi-cloud

We develop reference architectures and landing zone designs to WAF, CAF and BSI C5 that join network, identity, workloads and {{sovereignty}}.

General
Deep dive
1

Reference architecture

We create a reusable blueprint for your hybrid and multi-cloud environment.

WAF, CAF, BSI C5, reference model, design principles, standardisation

2

Landing zone design

Standardised landing zones per cloud provide structure and scalability.

Management groups, subscription design, landing zone vending, IaC, guardrails, modularisation

3

Network & connectivity

One overarching network design connects your clouds and data centres securely.

Hub-spoke, ExpressRoute/VPN, peering, private endpoints, segmentation, DNS

4

Identity

A single identity concept governs access across every cloud.

Entra ID, federation, SSO, RBAC, conditional access, least privilege

5

Workload placement

Explicit criteria decide which workload runs in which environment.

Placement criteria, portability, containers, Kubernetes, dependency mapping, data affinity

6

Sovereignty & compliance

The design anchors data sovereignty and avoids needless vendor dependency.

BSI C5, data location, avoiding vendor lock-in, encryption, compliance controls, evidence trails

OUR APPROACH

Multi-cloud architecture in five steps

1

Analysis

We capture the estate, requirements and sovereignty requirements.

1

Analysis

We capture your existing IT landscape, the platforms in place plus requirements for network, identity and sovereignty. To WAF, CAF and BSI C5 we align the frame.

You receive an agreed picture of requirements that joins the estate and the target picture. This picture determines the reference architecture.

2

Reference architecture

We design a reusable reference architecture as a blueprint.

2

Reference architecture

We design a reference architecture with design principles and standardisation to WAF, CAF and BSI C5. It describes how network, identity, workloads and sovereignty work together.

You receive a coherent reference model by which environments can be built consistently. On this template the concrete landing zone design takes shape.

Landing zone design

We shape landing zones with network and identity.

3

Landing zone design

We shape standardised landing zones per cloud through management groups, subscription design and landing zone vending. The overarching network of hub-spoke, ExpressRoute/VPN and private endpoints plus a single identity concept through Entra ID are planned in.

You receive prepared environments in which new initiatives start to the same rules. Into these zones we then place the workloads.

Workload placement

We assign workloads to the environment that fits.

Workload placement

Through placement criteria, portability and dependency mapping we determine which workload runs in which environment. Containers and Kubernetes we consider for portable applications.

You receive a reasoned assignment that takes data affinity and sovereignty into account. This assignment completes the architecture into a finished blueprint.

Blueprint

We hand the reviewed architecture over as a repeatable blueprint.

5

Blueprint

We document the architecture with landing zone design, network, identity and sovereignty requirements into a blueprint ready for sign-off. Compliance controls and evidence trails to BSI C5 are anchored within it.

You receive a solid template by which environments can be built repeatably and compliantly. On this basis the technical build-out can proceed.

YOUR BENEFITS

Why {{thinformatics}}

Architecture with substance

Reference architectures and landing zones to WAF and CAF, technically solid rather than theoretical.

Built on your estate

Your existing IT landscape is the starting point, not a greenfield.

Sovereignty thought through

Data sovereignty, BSI C5 and KRITIS are a fixed part of every architecture decision.

Multi-cloud experience

Azure, AWS, Google Cloud and sovereign options are joined realistically.

Network as the foundation

Connections and access form the load-bearing backbone rather than an add-on.

A workable blueprint

You receive diagrams and guides your teams can build on straight away.

Frequently asked {{questions}}

FAQ

Answers to the questions we are asked most often about hybrid and multi-cloud architecture.

What does a hybrid and multi-cloud architecture achieve?
A hybrid and multi-cloud architecture delivers reference architectures and landing zone designs for environments that join on-premises and several clouds. As a blueprint it joins network, identity, workloads and sovereignty into one coherent whole and builds on your existing IT landscape. You therefore receive a solid template by which environments can be built consistently, securely and repeatably, instead of shaping individual clouds separately and inconsistently.
What belongs to a reference architecture and landing zone design?
Reference architectures and landing zone designs describe the structured frame in which your workloads run. They settle how network and segmentation, identity and access, the placement of workloads plus sovereignty requirements work together. A landing zone forms the prepared environment in which new initiatives start to the same rules. That creates a repeatable pattern that brings security and structure along from the start and makes the build traceable.
Which frameworks underpin the architecture?
We develop the architecture to proven frameworks such as WAF (Well-Architected Framework), CAF (Cloud Adoption Framework) and BSI C5 (the BSI Cloud Computing Compliance Criteria Catalogue). They provide tested principles for security, operation, structure and provability, and we align the reference architecture and landing zones with them. Your design therefore follows recognised standards and stays reasoned traceably. Your concrete requirements we work into this reference model rather than adopting it unchanged.
How are network, identity, workloads and sovereignty joined?
As a blueprint the architecture joins network, identity, workloads and sovereignty into one coherent whole. The network provides secure connections between on-premises and the clouds, identity governs access consistently, workload placement assigns applications to the fitting environment, and sovereignty requirements feed into structure and data storage. The building blocks therefore mesh instead of standing in isolation, and your hybrid and multi-cloud environment stays steerable and secure throughout.
How does the architecture build on your existing IT landscape?
The architecture builds on your existing IT landscape rather than replacing it. We take existing networks, identities, operational processes and the platforms already in use into account and fit the reference architecture in so that the estate and the target picture match. Existing investment stays usable, and the transition can be shaped step by step. That creates a viable basis for hybrid and multi-cloud that includes your IT of today and develops it onward in good order.
