Cloud value guardrail

See your potential value at risk in under two minutes.

Most organizations know they should modernize. The hard part is deciding how fast to step away from traditional data centers and how much governance to wrap around cloud. This quick scan shows what similar teams typically leave on the table over three years if they stay on their current path.

  • Answer three short sections covering footprint, spend, and guardrails.
  • Get a benchmarked value-at-risk range plus narrative you can share.
  • Decide if a BVA briefing is the logical next move.
Cloud TCO delta 35% savings Accenture Sustainable Cloud
Modernisation risk 45% overruns McKinsey/Oxford
Cloud waste 19–32% waste VMware + CloudZero

Tell us about your environment

Answer three quick sections for a benchmarked view.

1. Where do your core systems primarily run today?

Choose the option that best describes your current hosting model.

2. What is your approximate annual run cost for infrastructure and platforms?

Include data center, hosting, and cloud platform spend. A broad estimate is enough.

3. Governance and delivery

Choose the statements that best reflect how you operate today.

How clear is your view of infrastructure and cloud costs today?
How often do major infrastructure or platform projects hit their targets?
How structured is your practice for optimizing cloud and infrastructure spend?
How would you describe your security and compliance posture for infra and cloud?

This quick scan uses public benchmarks from Accenture Sustainable Cloud, VMware Private Cloud Outlook 2025, McKinsey/Oxford, CloudZero and AWS/Forrester TEI.

A Cortex Business Value Assessment helps you decide how far to go and how fast. We map your current mix of data center and cloud against a handful of modernization paths, then give you a financial guardrail for the next three to five years.
