Cloud, hybrid, or on-prem — whichever your systems actually need.

AWS and GCP design, deployment and management — alongside IBM i and operational on-premise systems. highgrove architects cloud around what you already run, not the other way around.

Most cloud providers don't understand what sits on-prem. highgrove does — because highgrove manages the on-prem systems too. Hybrid deployments alongside IBM i are a genuine differentiator, not a theoretical capability.

Common questions

Things cloud clients ask us

Can you manage cloud alongside our IBM i systems?

Yes — and this is where highgrove is unusual. Most cloud providers don't manage IBM i. highgrove manages both, which makes hybrid architecture much simpler and better integrated.

Do you recommend AWS or GCP?

It depends on your existing environment, workload characteristics and skills. highgrove is experienced on both and will recommend based on your situation, not on partnership incentives.

Can you take over management of an existing cloud environment?

Yes. highgrove can assess and take over management of existing AWS or GCP environments — often identifying cost savings and governance improvements in the process.

What's involved in a cloud migration?

It starts with a structured assessment of what you're running and what it needs to do. highgrove will recommend the right migration approach — and be honest when migration isn't the right answer.
