01.01
Architecture & assessment
Review topology, addressing, routing boundaries, availability, and dependencies. Develop a prioritized view of what to retain, what to change, and why.
Enterprise Network Architecture
A stronger network.
By design.
Connect campus, branch, and data-center environments with an architecture your team can operate. Cloud7 brings structure to network design, modernization, and complex migrations—from discovery through handover.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Build for the next change,
not just the next device.
A network refresh is more than a hardware replacement. We help connect business requirements to topology, addressing, segmentation, availability, and day-to-day operations—so the design supports both the applications and the people who run them.
ENTERPRISE WIRELESS
Wireless deserves its own engineering focus.
Explore our Cisco, Mist, Aruba, and Fortinet wireless services, from RF planning and site assessments to secure access and performance optimization.

Focused expertise.
Practical execution.
Engagements are tailored to your priorities. The statement of work defines what is included, the responsibilities, and the acceptance criteria.
01.02
Campus, branch & WAN design
Define access, distribution, core, and branch connectivity with clear design standards. Plan the routing and switching foundations for a supportable environment.
01.03
Segmentation & access integration
Plan data, voice, management, guest, and device segments. Align wireless and network access control requirements with the switching and routing design.
01.04
Migration & validation
Break a refresh into manageable phases. Prepare change steps, pre-checks, rollback criteria, and post-change tests around actual site dependencies.

HOW WE WORK
From first review to a supported handover.
A staged approach with agreed checkpoints, clear responsibilities, and practical documentation.
Discover
Baseline the network and confirm applications, users, and operational constraints.
Design
Agree on the target architecture, migration boundaries, and success criteria.
Implement
Execute approved changes with planned validation and rollback options.
Transition
Document the final state and hand over a supportable operating model.
BEFORE WE START
Questions,
answered.
A clear scope makes for a better engagement.
Can the engagement start with an assessment?
Yes. A focused current-state review can establish the baseline before a larger design or migration commitment. Scope, access requirements, and deliverables are agreed before work begins.
Can you work with our internal team or existing provider?
Yes. Cloud7 can contribute architecture, implementation planning, or a defined delivery workstream while your team retains operational ownership.
Will a migration require downtime?
That depends on the existing topology, equipment, and application requirements. The plan identifies likely service impacts and agreed maintenance windows; zero downtime is not assumed or guaranteed.
