Cloud repatriation has become a hot topic as companies have begun to realize that the public cloud is not the best option for all workloads and applications. Although it fulfills the promise of scalability, companies have encountered a number of challenges in other areas that can jeopardize their journey to the cloud. Increasingly, companies are realizing that the public cloud is the ideal environment for capturing user transactions, while the characteristics of the private cloud are better aligned with the needs of processing and consolidating these transactions. The conclusion is that hybrid environments, where the application is distributed across several different types of cloud, is the best technical and economic solution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Initially, when considering cloud migration strategies, companies couldn't resist the appeal of pay-as-you-go infrastructure services. However, along the journey to the cloud, what works well in the beginning may not work so well once you increase usage growth. In most situations, after experiencing costs rising out of control, companies are bringing the back-end of applications back to private clouds, hosted in mission-critical data centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Digital transformation is becoming more and more prevalent, bringing a new reality to companies. In recent times, demand for cloud computing services has grown as different businesses have seen the solution to various issues and high demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this context, a concern arises for many companies: the lack of headcount specialized in the new technologies and the process of migrating to the cloud. The service provider is a facilitator in the journey to the cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, it is also important that the company goes through a careful analysis of the application and workload targeted for migration to the cloud: generally, transaction ingestion is more suited to the public cloud while transaction execution is more suited to private (or hybrid) clouds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What happens is that, when migrating applications to the public cloud, IT teams are dealing with two problems that, although separate, are related. The big issue is that these problems add costs and complexity, they are the refactoring and repatriation<\/strong> which we'll explain below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Refactoring is the process of rewriting the code to make the application more suitable and ready for the cloud. This is usually done by updating the application's overall architecture, APIs and integrations with computing, storage and network resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is a more complex process than other cloud migration approaches because it requires changes to the application code and needs to be tested carefully to avoid regressions in functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It can be partial, modifying parts of the applications to take advantage of some of the cloud's native resources, or complete, taking advantage of all the native resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By adjusting legacy applications to take on the characteristics of cloud-native applications, developers can use modern tools such as containers and microservices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Advantages and disadvantages of refactoring:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Refactoring, like any process, has advantages and disadvantages. Among its advantages, we can highlight long-term cost savings<\/strong>. It is possible to reduce costs by combining the real resource requirements of applications with cloud infrastructure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, refactoring offers greater resilience<\/strong>by decoupling application components and connecting managed solutions that provide high availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the other hand, refactoring has the following disadvantages supplier dependency<\/strong> and much greater consumption of resources<\/strong> making it take longer for projects to start showing their business value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We know that refactoring takes time, investment and risks affecting application performance. For this reason, IT teams must ensure that they are not affecting the performance of applications and workloads by rewriting code. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To avoid refactoring, IT teams can lifting and transferring applications from the Data Center to the private cloud<\/strong>. This can simplify the migration process, reduce costs and speed up the move to the cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To optimize the process, IT teams can take advantage of a cloud platform that fully integrates on-premises infrastructure with cloud management and thus use comprehensive automation to make the migration between lifting and shifting as simple and practical as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Furthermore, with proper management, you can also guarantee a migration path with automation and intelligence to simplify the processes involved in adding cloud-native resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Repatriation is the process of removing applications that have been migrated to the public cloud and returning them to the private cloud. It is an increasingly hot topic as companies realize that the public cloud is not the best option for all workloads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A large number of Brazilian companies are repatriating applications from the public cloud to the private cloud. According to a survey carried out by Nutanix, more than three quarters of Brazilian respondents (78%) reported having repatriation initiatives, which is around 6 to 8 percentage points above the global and Americas averages. The figures indicate the need for greater mobility between integration and the cloud, and highlight the advantages of relying on managed service providers<\/strong> end-to-end, regardless of the cloud platform chosen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The high cost of the public cloud, often more than expected, linked to exchange rate risk, was a very present theme in the survey. Brazilian companies report cost overruns with their public cloud spending, with 35.39% reporting overruns in 2019, rising significantly year on year, with 21.6% in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether for security or cost reasons, some companies are deciding to migrate their applications from public clouds to in-house systems, a process known as repatriation. This was the case for 73% of the 2,650 IT decision-makers surveyed by Vanson Bourne at Nutanix's request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is an ongoing debate about the security of the public cloud versus the private cloud. The public cloud segment has constantly presented a repertoire of news about data breaches that reinforce security being the main factor for companies to migrate their workloads to hybrid clouds. Much of this dynamic is due to public cloud providers defending the shared responsibility model, while hybrid cloud service providers defend a management model that is agnostic to the type of cloud used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Given the characteristics of dynamic computing resources, public clouds generally do not guarantee consistent processing and I\/O performance, and the model of telecommunications capacity made available per gigabyte transferred presupposes traffic restrictions (traffic shaping).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The conclusion is that the best performance practice is to have the application ingestion (front-end) in a public cloud and the transaction processing and consolidation (back-end) in a private cloud. The combination of these options is known as a hybrid cloud. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The vast majority of companies still need to maintain an operational legacy. These legacy systems are very difficult to migrate to the public cloud, either from a software licensing point of view or from the point of view of investments made in specialist hardware. In addition to the investments required to migrate the legacy, as public cloud providers advocate a shared management model, operating costs (opex) can also become an impediment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are services that have native cross-region replication capabilities. For this reason, it is perfectly possible for a company to accidentally violate LGPD rules because an administrator has activated cross-region replication for an unprepared bucket. Repatriating sensitive data to hybrid clouds and local mission-critical data centers gives companies more control, preventing an inadvertent violation of the many regulations to which a company may be bound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ability to generate services on demand brings agility and innovation. This is the appeal of public cloud services. But this process can generate everything from obvious problems with cost controls to less obvious problems such as access management and the potential for violating corporate or government regulations. Workloads with unified management guarantee IT governance and control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We are following two opposing trends. Spending on the public cloud is expected to more than double by 2023, yet 98% of companies still keep their servers on-premises. Still, these two trends can live in harmony as sentiment moves away from an \"either\/or\" mentality to a \"this and that\" one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Recent research indicates that \"the use of private and public clouds will increase sharply over the next 12 to 24 months\". It seems that companies are realizing that there is no \"silver bullet\", each type of cloud has its advantages and disadvantages. IT resources made available in a hybrid cloud, in a combination of public and private cloud environments (the hybrid cloud), with end-to-end management, meet these needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In many cases, such as those mentioned above, repatriation becomes a necessity, but it is necessary to an analysis to see if you're at the right stage<\/strong>. To this end, it's worth saying that the public cloud shows its best potential in the initial phase of projects. Scalability, for example, is a great differentiator if demand grows rapidly and is unpredictable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To recognize the need for repatriation, it is necessary to investigate how resources are being used<\/strong>and other storage options, such as the hybrid cloud. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Repatriation, like refactoring, is also something you want to avoid, right? It's a process that also requires investment and time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Initially, the company bears the costs of migrating an application to the cloud, sometimes involving refactoring or a lift-and-shift model (with minimal or no changes). Then it realizes that it is spending a lot of money on the cloud or dealing with other problems related to it, and so it spends again on the migration back to the data center. Clearly, this is a situation that you want to avoid and that can be avoided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, the cost of repatriation will vary greatly depending on the workload, applications, etc. Even so, the costs can be quite significant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, to avoid so many dilemmas, we want to help simplify things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To avoid the costs and complexities of refactoring and repatriation, you need to analyze your business needs before carrying out any migration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In this sense, before opting for a solution, try to understand your company's situation by asking questions: <\/p>\n\n\n\n By doing this analysis, it will be possible to decide whether the application is best served by remaining on-site or by incorporating cloud services, which can be hybrid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If this analysis determines that refactoring is indeed necessary, it is still important to choose the right migration path to avoid the need for repatriation in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the most part, refactoring and repatriation, because they are complex, happen due to a lack of good prior analysis and experience on the part of the company. So remember the advice: when deciding on a particular solution, make a complete analysis of your business situation<\/strong> to make the best long-term decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the most productive option is to migrate to the cloud, don't hesitate - after all, this solution is part of the digital transformation and the future of any organization. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To this end, SBA Edge offers several options with management and security, including hybrid cloud<\/strong>The environment combines on-premise infrastructure (private clouds) with public clouds, allowing companies to take advantage of both options with single management, which guarantees benefits such as: <\/p>\n\n\n\n SBA Edge focuses on your infrastructure so you can focus on your business.

Embora cumpra a promessa de escalabilidade, as empresas encontraram v\u00e1rios desafios em outras \u00e1reas que podem comprometer sua jornada para a nuvem. Cada vez mais, as empresas percebem que a nuvem p\u00fablica \u00e9 o ambiente ideal para a captura de transa\u00e7\u00f5es de usu\u00e1rios, enquanto as caracter\u00edsticas da nuvem privada est\u00e3o melhor alinhadas com as necessidades de processamento e consolida\u00e7\u00e3o dessas transa\u00e7\u00f5es. Chega-se \u00e0 conclus\u00e3o que ambientes h\u00edbridos, onde a aplica\u00e7\u00e3o est\u00e1 distribu\u00edda em diversos tipos de nuvens diferentes, \u00e9 a melhor solu\u00e7\u00e3o t\u00e9cnica e econ\u00f4mica. Inicialmente, ao considerarem estrat\u00e9gias de migra\u00e7\u00e3o para nuvem, as empresas n\u00e3o resistiram ao apelo dos servi\u00e7os de infraestrutura com pagamento conforme uso. Por\u00e9m, ao longo da jornada para a nuvem, o que funciona bem no in\u00edcio pode n\u00e3o funcionar t\u00e3o bem depois que voc\u00ea aumenta o crescimento de utiliza\u00e7\u00e3o. Na maioria das situa\u00e7\u00f5es, ap\u00f3s experimentarem os custos aumentarem de forma descontrolada, empresas est\u00e3o trazendo de volta o back-end das aplica\u00e7\u00f5es para nuvens privadas, hospedadas em Data Centers de miss\u00e3o cr\u00edtica. A transforma\u00e7\u00e3o digital aparece cada vez mais vigente, trazendo uma nova realidade \u00e0s empresas. Nos \u00faltimos tempos, a procura pelos servi\u00e7os de cloud computing tem crescido \u00e0 medida que diferentes neg\u00f3cios tem percebido a solu\u00e7\u00e3o para diversas quest\u00f5es e altas demandas. Nesse contexto, surge uma preocupa\u00e7\u00e3o para muitas empresas: a falta de headcount especialista nas novas tecnologias e processo de migra\u00e7\u00e3o para a nuvem. O provedor de servi\u00e7os \u00e9 um facilitador na jornada para a nuvem. Al\u00e9m disso, tamb\u00e9m \u00e9 importante que a empresa passe por uma an\u00e1lise criteriosa da aplica\u00e7\u00e3o e da carga de trabalho alvo de migra\u00e7\u00e3o para a nuvem: geralmente a ingest\u00e3o da transa\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e9 mais adequada \u00e0 nuvem p\u00fablica enquanto a execu\u00e7\u00e3o da transa\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e9 mais adequada para nuvens privadas (ou h\u00edbridas). O que acontece \u00e9 que, ao migrar aplicativos para a nuvem p\u00fablica, as equipes de TI est\u00e3o lidando com dois problemas que, apesar de separados, est\u00e3o relacionados. A grande quest\u00e3o \u00e9 que tais problemas adicionam custos e complexidade, s\u00e3o eles a refatora\u00e7\u00e3o e a repatria\u00e7\u00e3o que explicaremos melhor a seguir. O que \u00e9 refatora\u00e7\u00e3o? Refatora\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e9 o processo de reescrever o c\u00f3digo para tornar a aplica\u00e7\u00e3o mais adequada e pronta para a nuvem. Normalmente isso \u00e9 feito por meio da atualiza\u00e7\u00e3o da arquitetura geral do aplicativo, APIs e integra\u00e7\u00f5es com recursos de computa\u00e7\u00e3o, armazenamento e rede. \u00c9 um processo mais complexo do que outras abordagens de migra\u00e7\u00e3o para a nuvem, porque requer altera\u00e7\u00f5es no c\u00f3digo do aplicativo e precisa ser testado com cuidado para evitar regress\u00f5es na funcionalidade. Pode ser parcial, modificando partes das aplica\u00e7\u00f5es para aproveitar alguns recursos nativos da nuvem, ou completa, aproveitando a totalidade dos recursos nativos. Ao ajustar os aplicativos legados a assumirem as caracter\u00edsticas dos aplicativos nativos da nuvem, \u00e9 poss\u00edvel que os desenvolvedores utilizem ferramentas modernas, como cont\u00eaineres e microsservi\u00e7os. Vantagens e desvantagens da refatora\u00e7\u00e3o: Vantagens e desvantagens da refatora\u00e7\u00e3o: A refatora\u00e7\u00e3o, bem como qualquer processo, tem vantagens e desvantagens. Entre suas vantagens, podemos destacar a economia de custos a longo prazo. \u00c9 poss\u00edvel reduzir custos \u00e0 medida que se combine os requisitos reais de recursos das aplica\u00e7\u00f5es com infraestrutura em nuvem. Al\u00e9m disso, a refatora\u00e7\u00e3o oferece maior resili\u00eancia, desacoplando os componentes da aplica\u00e7\u00e3o e conectando solu\u00e7\u00f5es gerenciadas que fornecem alta disponibilidade. Por outro lado, como desvantagem, a refatora\u00e7\u00e3o apresenta depend\u00eancia do fornecedor e o consumo muito maior de recursos fazendo com que os projetos demorem mais para come\u00e7ar a mostrar o valor do neg\u00f3cio. Vantagens e desvantagens da refatora\u00e7\u00e3o: Sabemos bem que a refatora\u00e7\u00e3o leva tempo, investimento e traz risco de afetar a performance das aplica\u00e7\u00f5es. Por esse motivo, as equipes de TI devem garantir que n\u00e3o est\u00e1 afetando o desempenho de aplicativos e cargas de trabalho ao reescrever o c\u00f3digo. Para evitar a refatora\u00e7\u00e3o, as equipes de TI podem levantar e transferir aplica\u00e7\u00f5es do Data Center para a nuvem privada. Isso \u00e9 capaz de simplificar o processo de migra\u00e7\u00e3o, reduzir custos e acelerar a mudan\u00e7a para a nuvem. Para otimizar o processo, as equipes de TI podem aproveitar uma plataforma de nuvem que integra totalmente a infraestrutura local com gerenciamento em nuvem e, assim, usar a automa\u00e7\u00e3o abrangente para tornar a migra\u00e7\u00e3o entre levantamento e deslocamento o mais simples e pr\u00e1tico poss\u00edvel. Al\u00e9m disso, com gerenciamento adequado, tamb\u00e9m pode-se garantir um caminho de migra\u00e7\u00e3o com automa\u00e7\u00e3o e intelig\u00eancia para simplificar os processos envolvidos na adi\u00e7\u00e3o de recursos nativos da nuvem. O que \u00e9 repatria\u00e7\u00e3o?\u00a0 A repatria\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e9 o processo de remover aplica\u00e7\u00f5es que foram migradas para a nuvem p\u00fablica e devolv\u00ea-las para nuvem privada. \u00c9 um assunto cada vez mais em alta, conforme as empresas percebem que a nuvem p\u00fablica n\u00e3o \u00e9 a melhor op\u00e7\u00e3o para todas as cargas de trabalho. Um grande n\u00famero de empresas brasileiras est\u00e1 repatriando aplica\u00e7\u00f5es de nuvem p\u00fablica para nuvem privada. Segundo pesquisa promovida pela Nutanix, mais de tr\u00eas quartos dos entrevistados brasileiros (78%) relataram ter iniciativas de repatria\u00e7\u00e3o, o que representa cerca de 6 a 8 pontos percentuais acima das m\u00e9dias global e das Am\u00e9ricas. Os n\u00fameros indicam a necessidade por maior mobilidade entre integra\u00e7\u00e3o e nuvem, e ressaltam as vantagens de contar com provedores de servi\u00e7os gerenciados fim-a-fim, independentemente da plataforma de nuvem escolhida. Investimento O custo elevado da nuvem p\u00fablica, geralmente mais do que o esperado, atrelado ao risco cambial, foi tema muito presente na pesquisa. Empresas brasileiras relatam custo excessivo com suas despesas em nuvem p\u00fablica, com 35,39% informando excedentes em 2019, subindo significativamente ano a ano, com 21,6% em 2018. Seguran\u00e7a Seja por quest\u00f5es de seguran\u00e7a ou custo, algumas empresas est\u00e3o decidindo migrar suas aplica\u00e7\u00f5es de nuvens p\u00fablicas para sistemas internos, um processo conhecido como repatria\u00e7\u00e3o. Esse foi o caso de 73% dos 2.650 tomadores de decis\u00e3o de TI pesquisados \u200b\u200bpela Vanson Bourne a pedido da Nutanix.
