Cloud Migration & DevOps mobility

Your applications. Our experience. Into the cloud — together.

Modernize existing applications. Make digital mobility scalable.

Software-defined mobility requires stable, flexible, and future-ready IT architectures — especially for business-critical applications that have grown over many years.

We modernize applications, migrate them securely to modern cloud environments, and connect development, deployment, and operations through efficient DevOps processes. The result: scalable platforms for the next generation of digital vehicle services.

 

Why Cloud Migration & DevOps with Cognizant Mobility?

So that business-critical applications do not just move to the cloud — but can be operated securely, developed efficiently, and scaled reliably once they are there.

Make established applications future-ready

We modernize existing system landscapes and transition them in a structured way to cloud and hybrid cloud environments — aligned with architecture, dependencies, and ongoing operations.

Deliver releases faster and more reliably

With DevOps processes, CI/CD pipelines, and automated quality gates, we connect development, testing, deployment, and operations — for more predictable releases and less manual effort.

Manage operations transparently and reliably

Monitoring, observability, and incident management create transparency across system health, error patterns, and operational risks.

Integrate security from the start

We embed security and compliance early in architecture, pipelines, and operations — with clear access concepts, automated checks, and auditable processes.

Keep cloud costs transparent and manageable

With FinOps, cost monitoring, and continuous optimization, we help use cloud resources efficiently and keep costs under control.

Manage the complexity of digital mobility services

We combine cloud, software, and automotive expertise — for digital mobility services that scale securely, operate reliably, and can be continuously developed.

Cloud Migration & DevOps as a Game Changer?

 

Many automotive companies work with business-critical applications that have grown over many years. At the same time, requirements for scalability, security, release speed, and stable operations continue to increase.

That is why cloud migration is more than a change of infrastructure. What matters is bringing applications, platforms, pipelines, security, and operations together as a reliable foundation for digital mobility services.

A Real-World Deep Dive

Cloud Migration Is Just the Beginning.

How we transformed a business-critical legacy platform into a cloud-native AWS architecture — and why true modernization requires rethinking architecture, data logic, delivery, and operations.

Our Services

Cloud Migration and DevOps — from strategy to operations.

We support companies in the mobility sector along the entire cloud and DevOps journey: from readiness assessment, application evaluation, and target architecture to migration, CI/CD, DevSecOps, and stable cloud operations.

A Clear Methodology. Tailored to Each Application.

Cloud migration does not need a one-size-fits-all solution. That is why we analyze applications, dependencies, risks and operational requirements using our proven framework — and develop the right individual path from assessment to stable operations.

 

 

We analyze the application landscape, infrastructure, toolchains, and operating processes — and assess the technical, organizational, and operational conditions.

We identify potential, prioritize applications, and create a reliable decision-making basis for architecture, migration, and modernization.

We define target platforms, cloud services, integration points, and security requirements — aligned with technology, operations, and business objectives.

We select the right migration path — from rehosting and replatforming to refactoring or modernization — and develop a realistic roadmap with milestones and priorities.

We identify technical and organizational risks at an early stage, take compliance and security requirements into account, and involve relevant stakeholders in a targeted way.

We support or take over the technical migration and modernization, including testing and go-live — in a controlled, transparent way and with ongoing operations in mind.

If needed, we support stable operations through monitoring, alerting, incident management, and targeted stabilization after go-live.

We continuously optimize performance, costs, and operating processes — for efficient cloud usage and sustainable business value.

Project Reference

Automotive Security Backend Migrated to AWS

For a premium automotive manufacturer, a business-critical security backend was migrated from a monolithic on-premises architecture to a scalable AWS environment.

Challenge
Monolithic Java application, high load peaks, global rollout, HSM integration, and strict security requirements.n.

Our Approach
Refactoring into microservices, migration of scalable services to AWS EKS, hybrid integration of security-critical HSM functions, connection to AWS CloudHSM, and migration from Oracle to PostgreSQL on AWS.

Results and Business Value for the OEM
Higher scalability · improved maintainability · security requirements fulfilled · reduced IT costs
