Cloud Center of Excellence

Establishing a successful CCoE starts with understanding your organization’s unique cloud landscape and goals. Through structured workshops, we help define the roles, governance frameworks, and objectives that align with your business priorities, ensuring your CCoE is set up for long-term success. 

Identifying the right talent is essential to building a high-functioning CCoE. Xebia provides guidance on crafting staffing strategies, defining key responsibilities (whether as explicit roles or distributed across existing teams), and designing training programs to upskill your teams with the knowledge needed to manage and innovate in the cloud. For example, Cloud Security responsibilities may focus on translating security policies into actionable guardrails, ensuring all deployments align with those standards. 

A well-defined operating model forms the foundation for effective cloud governance and operations. Xebia helps organizations develop shared responsibility frameworks, clarify roles, and streamline workflows to reduce governance complexities. We also help customers build Cloud Landing Zones, offering teams access to building blocks, reference IaC templates, or primitives on the cloud platform.

The landing zone enables self-service, allowing teams to work autonomously while providing the necessary degree of security and assurance through guardrails. Automation, inner sourcing, and reusable building blocks ensure your teams are equipped to handle the complexities of cloud operations while maintaining agility, compliance, and innovation.

As your cloud adoption grows, the CCoE must adapt to support evolving needs. Our expertise in portfolio assessment ensures that workloads are prioritized for migration and that governance models are continuously refined. By embedding robust processes, your CCoE will scale seamlessly alongside your cloud strategy.
