Slash maintenance costs by 20–50% through Cloud app modernisation
Slash maintenance costs by 20–50% through Cloud app modernisation
Modernising your applications and migrating to cloud-native environments can yield substantial cost reductions in infrastructure.
A comprehensive report from The Hackett Group (in collaboration with AWS) shows that businesses achieve around a 20% average reduction in total IT infrastructure expenses after migrating to the cloud. In contrast, top-performing organisations – those that deeply optimise their environments – see even greater savings, achieving on average 47% lower infrastructure costs compared to their on-premises baseline.
Even more strikingly, a study by the Enterprise Strategy Group found that organisations migrating to the cloud cut overall infrastructure expenses by up to 66%, emphasising that, with mature cloud and cost management practices, savings can exceed 50%.

reduction in client cloud-related costs
Adia, an HR company, needed a partner for two key reasons: to enable significant growth and to implement a modernised strategy for their technology and solution architecture. Another important issue was to implement a much more flexible system framework and rapid product innovation.
We work together with the client’s onsite Tech and Product Teams on the design of new features and upgrades of the system to ensure its robustness.
Thanks to our work, we decreased the lead time for changes from 2 months to 1 day, improved change failure rate from over 30% to below 10%, and saved 50% of the client’s Cloud costs.
reduction in deployment time
Our client (insurance company from the UK) needed a large-scale migration and automation in the cloud with optimisations of the processes in a customer app aimed at managing insurance claims. The company had to focus on improving the efficiency and ensuring service stability and predictability.
Our team achieved a 90% reduction in deployment time and swiftly cleared over 40% of BAU backlog in just 7 days, demonstrating a 2.5 times increase in ticket closure speed.

What makes Future Processing’s modernisation approach unique?
Future Processing’s approach to cloud app modernisation stands out because it follows a proprietary Cloud & Data Modernisation Framework that takes a holistic and structured path. From an initial assessment of your current applications and data landscape, we design a tailored target state to align with business priorities – whether that’s cost reduction, performance improvement or enabling new capabilities.
We begin with workshops and strategic planning sessions to ensure alignment with your goals, delivering measurable outcomes – often within the first month. Throughout execution, we guide you through refactoring, migrating and deploying with minimal disruption, then remain involved post-launch to continuously monitor performance and optimise costs.
In addition, our strong partnerships, as an AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner and a Microsoft Partner since 2007, ensure access to best-in-class cloud expertise, tools and pricing. Combined with strong governance, DevOps practices and ongoing optimisation, our cloud app modernisation strategy is not a one-off migration – it’s a strategic, business-driven transformation that delivers sustained value at every step.
What triggers the need for cloud app modernisation?
When outdated technologies become difficult to maintain or flawed shortcuts accumulate, operational costs rise. As noted by ITPro, technical debt is increasing – 40% of CIOs say legacy systems lead to frequent outages or performance issues – and addressing it becomes a strategic imperative.
What are the most common reasons for implementing cloud app modernisation?
- Outdated security and compliance posture
- Technical debt and rising maintenance costs
- Poor application performance or scalability limitations
- Slow time-to-market and innovation bottlenecks
- Infrastructure end-of-life or expensive upgrades
- Security risks around remote or hybrid work
Recognising these triggers – especially outdated security, rising costs, underperformance, delayed delivery, regulatory changes, and evolving workforce trends – helps determine when to prioritise modernisation.
Addressing them through a strategic cloud app modernisation effort positions your business for efficiency, innovation and long-term growth.
Key benefits of our Cloud App Modernisation services
Modernising your applications and migrating them to cloud-native environments often results in substantial infrastructure cost savings, typically ranging from 30% to 50%, thanks to the flexibility of pay-as-you-go pricing models and optimised resource allocation.
These cost advantages stem from moving away from fixed-capacity, on-premises systems – which are often underutilised – and towards cloud architectures designed for elastic scaling, enabling companies to pay only for the resources they consume. Additional support services – such as automated patching, managed backups, and monitoring – further reduce hidden operational expenses and free up internal teams for strategic initiatives.
Modernised cloud applications also support agile methods and continuous delivery, allowing teams to deploy updates faster and with fewer errors. This accelerates innovation and keeps businesses competitive.
Cloud app modernisation offers quicker response times and more intuitive interfaces. It also integrates the latest security patches, encryption, identity management, and monitoring, reducing vulnerabilities, making it easier to comply with regulations like GDPR and HIPAA.
Overall, the combination of elastic consumption, managed cloud services and optimisation best practices translates into real savings and application improvements.
Can Future Processing optimise cloud costs effectively?
Absolutely – we have a strong track record of effectively optimising cloud costs through intelligent planning, execution, and management.
One of our most compelling success stories comes from the TrustMark case. Within just 20 days, we migrated 53 services and five Azure DevOps pipelines, ultimately reducing the number of environments from four to two. As a result, subscription costs dropped by a remarkable 72%, all while maintaining consistent performance. The team also thoroughly optimised resources – achieving a 39% reduction in App Services, 25% fewer Function Apps, 33% less database usage and 25% less storage consumption.
Similarly, in another engagement managing TechSoup’s AWS deployment, we conducted an in-depth analysis of cloud spending. By eliminating unused resources and rightsizing infrastructure, we delivered up to 50% monthly cloud cost savings, without impacting system performance.
These outcomes demonstrate that our Cloud Cost Optimisation services are not theoretical – they’re proven.
What kinds of modernisation projects does Future Processing handle?
Future Processing handles a broad range of modernisation projects designed to meet your scale, complexity, and strategic goals. From rapid rehosting – lifting apps into the cloud with minimal changes – to replatforming, which optimises runtime environments without massive rewrites, we cover every migration scenario.
Our expertise extends to refactoring and full re‑architecting, where monolithic applications are broken into microservices, event‑driven systems, or containerised designs – improving scalability, fault tolerance, and business agility. When deeper transformation is needed, we also offer complete rewrites, including frontend UX enhancements, incremental rebuilds and even replacing legacy with modern solutions.
Whether you’re looking for a low-risk lift-and-shift or a strategic refactor that future-proofs your architecture, Future Processing provides a tailored, KPI-driven modernisation path backed by structured frameworks and multi-cloud expertise.
How do we ensure a secure, compliant cloud app modernisation?
Our approach begins with a comprehensive security architecture review, where Cloud and Application Security experts design secure cloud environments, enforce robust IAM policies, apply network segmentation and implement logging and monitoring to mitigate threats from day one.
Concurrently, we implement a tailored Cloud Governance framework that assesses your current environment, defines formal policies (e.g., RPO/RTO objectives), implements automated tagging and role-based access controls, and creates disaster recovery plans – all designed to uphold regulatory compliance and business continuity.
During the migration and ongoing operation phases, we perform infrastructure audits to verify compliance with ISO 27001, GDPR, and internal policies. Our CloudOps team ensures adherence via managed services with SLAs, routine penetration tests, and continuous policy monitoring.
We also provide dedicated Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) services, conducting detailed compliance assessments and audits, implementing vendor risk management, and crafting custom policies to align with evolving standards – significantly reducing legal and reputational risk.
What support does Future Processing provide post-modernisation?
Future Processing ensures your post-modernisation environment remains secure, optimised and continuously aligned with business goals. Our dedicated CloudOps team takes full responsibility for maintaining availability and performance under SLA-backed support, while proactively identifying and eliminating the root causes of incidents.
We enforce industry-standard ITIL practices and robust security controls – including regular audits aligned with ISO 27001 and GDPR – to maintain compliance and operational integrity.
Beyond technical support, Future Processing embeds FinOps and cloud cost optimisation into ongoing operations, ensuring your infrastructure remains efficient and budget-friendly. Whether it’s disaster recovery testing, capacity planning or upgrading your architecture to meet evolving business demands, the team stays engaged end-to-end.
