Relus Technologies
Delivering Business Transformation

Business transformation for IT organizations is challenged by a number of obstacles that restrict agility and speed. Relus Technologies was founded to address these barriers and ‘Create Options in IT’. According to Relus CEO Mark Metz, “Data centers, processes, people, hardware and money are all tied up into a confusing mess that is preventing companies from benefitting from the scalability, flexibility, and low cost o f entry that the cloud (IaaS) offers. Our products and solutions focus on extending the life of our customer’s current state environment, getting them to their future state, and ensuring they have access to the right people with the right skill sets to make that transition a reality.”

Relus delivers innovative solutions that examine their customer’s processes, applications and legacy infrastructure in order to establish a roadmap for successfully aligning a client’s IT organization to business transformation. The company’s transformation methodology enables their clients to accelerate adoption of innovative solutions (cloud) while addressing the support of legacy systems. “Most companies have major investments in data center infrastructure that have been virtualized and optimized. This has created a tremendous amount of complexity and ongoing support costs that weigh down transformation. Relus’ expert staff utilizes our proven methodologies and tools to accelerate cloud adoption, which enables the agility to support business transformation,” says Metz.

Relus Technologies’ cloud enablement practice delivers readiness and migration assessment solutions such as road mapping and discovery.

Their migration practice includes proprietary technology and the people required to execute end-to-end enterprise migrations for clients to the cloud. Relus is able to support their customers with managed cloud solutions such as cost optimization, security/compliance, and operations.

From strategic planning to deployment, to assessment and beyond, their experienced consultants minimize risk, while ensuring that they meet project objectives. For example, Relus Technologies was able to assist a client in migrating their current systems to the Amazon Web Services cloud and delivering ongoing support of their new cloud enabled environment. They accelerated this migration through the buyback of legacy hardware and provided a cost effective maintenance solution for remaining on-premise data center hardware.

Relus believes that the company is as strong as the people it has and this belief is carried over to the company’s recruiting methodology. With numerous rounds of tests and interviews, Relus chooses the best-of-the best for their fast-growing business. With highly experienced architects, engineers, and project managers, the company is able to support the latest cloud technologies.

What’s next for Relus? According to Mark, “Years down the line, we would like to be a pioneer in providing cloud solutions across North America and Europe. At Relus, we turn possibilities into realities by enabling our customers to take the anchor from around their necks and get out of the data center business”.
