Case Study

CloudOne Application Modernization

Customer and Challenge Faced:

The U.S. Air Force, through its CloudOne program, is undertaking a large-scale migration of hundreds of on-premises applications to secure cloud environments. This modernization effort aims to standardize platforms, improve data management, and ensure compliance with security regulations. However, many missions require support in conducting readiness assessments, estimating costs, and developing migration roadmaps. The challenge lies in executing migrations efficiently while maintaining operational continuity, compliance, and managing costs through Financial Operations (FinOps) capabilities.

VTG Solution Provided:

VTG partnered with the CloudOne program to deliver expert guidance and implementation support for the Air Force’s cloud migration and modernization initiative.

Key Highlights:

  • Cloud Readiness Assessments: Conducted detailed evaluations of current environments and designed future-state cloud architectures, including cost and schedule projections.
  • Legacy Application Refactoring: Modernized diverse legacy systems to leverage cloud-native technologies such as storage, databases, and web hosting.
  • CI/CD Enablement: Implemented Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines to ensure consistent, secure, and repeatable cloud service deployments.
  • FinOps Enablement: Delivered real-time spend visibility, automated reporting and forecasting, and data-driven cost governance—resulting in over $5M in savings for AFLCMC/HNI.

Outcomes Achieved:

VTG’s support accelerated the Air Force’s transition to cloud-based operations while ensuring mission effectiveness and compliance. The team’s refactoring and training efforts prepared Air Force personnel to operate effectively in the new cloud environment. With streamlined deployment processes and modernized applications, CloudOne delivers scalable, secure, and resilient digital infrastructure across the enterprise. This transformation is positioning the Air Force for long-term success in a digitally driven defense landscape.
