The typical digital transformation journey hasn’t moved on in 20 years and involves expensive consultations up front. Then, when the project is finally delivered, the technology and the business have moved on. After years of experience bringing enterprises to public cloud, we’ve created best practice templates for cloud environments alongside an affordable managed service, democratising the technology for everyone to use.” www.ans.co.uk
