Hybrid Cloud AssessmentCloud Repatriation Assessment
Cloud Repatriation Assessment

Repatriate with purpose. Reduce costs. Reclaim control.

Whether public cloud costs are out of hand or just out of sync, repatriating workloads can unlock serious savings.

But repatriation isn’t always the answer. Our assessment gives you a clear, data-backed view of all your options (public cloud, hybrid, or on-prem), so you can move forward with confidence.

Why assess?

Why consider a repatriation assessment?

You know moving stable, predictable workloads on-prem can unlock significant cost savings. You’ve also seen the cracks in the hyperscale model: rising costs, performance trade-offs, and less flexibility than promised.

But making a shift this big requires clarity, due diligence, and unbiased evaluation. And that starts with asking the right questions:

Has the private infrastructure landscape evolved enough to be a better fit?

Does your team have the right support and resources to manage it?

Will the long-term savings outweigh the effort?

Will repatriation limit your ability to scale, or improve it?

Is this a step back, or a necessary recalibration?

Our assessment helps you answer them with data, workload insights, and a plan tailored to your business.

The process

What does the assessment cover?

Our assessment gives you a structured evaluation of your current environment, mapped against key paths: repatriation, hybrid, or refining your existing setup. So you can make an informed decision on what’s right for your business, and what it would take to get there. We break it down into six practical steps:

01

Discovery & Alignment

Define goals, analyze current spend, and confirm if repatriation or hybrid is worth exploring.

02

Workload & Technical Assessment

Map workloads and dependencies to the environment that fits best—on-prem, public cloud, or hybrid.

03

Infrastructure Architecture

Compare infrastructure, hardware, and tooling options to support the recommended path.

04

Cost & TCO Analysis

Project full costs, including infrastructure, licensing, labor, and migration, alongside future growth needs.

05

Risk & Operational Impact

Identify risks, gaps, and readiness factors so you can move forward with eyes open.

06

Recommendation & Roadmap

Get a clear recommendation and high-level execution plan, tailored to your business and team.

You’ll leave the assessment with a mapped workload plan, infrastructure and tooling recommendations, a detailed financial model covering upfront and ongoing costs, identified risks and readiness gaps, and a clear roadmap to move forward with confidence.

Resources

Before You Repatriate, Get the Full Picture

Cloud repatriation decisions often start with cost pressure, but the real risks sit in lock-in, hidden dependencies, and assumptions made years ago. Curing the Cloud Hangover provides the broader context behind today’s repatriation trend and outlines how organizations evaluate what should move, what should stay, and why hybrid models often deliver the best outcome.

Why Aptum?

Because your infrastructure journey doesn’t stop at assessment, and neither do we.

We’ve identified up to 75% in potential savings for businesses with public cloud spend ranging from thousands to tens of millions. We help you evaluate if repatriation is the right move, or if hybrid or optimization make more sense.

And when it is the right fit, we stay with you. The same team that helped assess your environment is the team that helps design, build, and run it. Meaning no knowledge lost in handoff, or delays from starting over.

We’re not here to push platforms. We’re here to help you run your infrastructure, your way.
