Cloud Healthscan
The cloud is crucial for flexibility and innovation, but many organizations running fully in the cloud lose track of the bigger picture here and there. With the Cloud Healthscan from Digital Survival Company, you quickly and clearly get a picture of where you stand, and what you need to do to improve.
Why the Cloud Healthscan?
The Cloud Healthscan is a focused analysis of your cloud environment across five domains: architecture, performance, security, cost management, and governance. We benchmark your environment against best practices and common standards, so you get a complete and objective picture of how your cloud environment is really doing.
Where individual platform reports usually only cover one domain, such as just costs or just security, the Cloud Healthscan brings the domains together. This reveals whether a cost problem is actually an architecture problem, or whether a security risk stems from a governance gap that was never closed.
Our approach
- 1
Assess architecture
We analyze how your cloud environment is structured and identify where organic growth has led to unnecessary complexity.
- 2
Analyze performance
We map out performance bottlenecks and trace the underlying cause, even when it isn't immediately visible in standard monitoring.
- 3
Test security and governance
We assess whether security and governance are demonstrably in order, including access management, logging, and compliance substantiation.
- 4
Review costs
We analyze the cost structure and identify where spending is increasing without a clear explanation or without translating into value.
- 5
Prioritize recommendations
We translate the findings into a concrete plan, distinguishing between quick wins and improvements that have more impact in the longer term.

FAQ
We already have insight into our cloud costs via the platform itself. What does the Healthscan add?
Platform reports show what you're spending, but rarely explain why. The Healthscan combines cost with architecture, performance, and governance, so you understand where the real cause of rising costs or inefficiency lies, and what you can do about it.
Is the Healthscan also suitable for a multi-cloud environment?
Yes. We assess each cloud environment on its own merits, and for multi-cloud we also look at the coherence and consistency between platforms, for example in the area of governance and security policy.
What happens with the results of the scan?
The results are yours. You can use them to implement improvements yourself, to bring in another party, or to ask Digital Survival Company to guide the implementation, from design to execution.
