Cloudly’s Journey:

From Cloud Migration to AI Transformation

Founded in 2012 as a Silicon Valley startup focused on cloud migration, Cloudly has evolved into a leader in enterprise AI transformation. Our journey reflects our continuous adaptation to solve the most challenging problems in technology—culminating in our current mission: transforming complex enterprise data into AI success.

The Evolution of Cloudly

2012-2015
Cloud Foundations

We began with a vision to make cloud migration easier for enterprises. Our Automated Cloud Migrator platform, launched at AWS re:Invent in 2014, helped organizations transition to AWS, Azure, and GCP. Working with companies like MasterCard, Ericsson, and Bluvision taught us the complexities of enterprise data environments—knowledge that would later become fundamental to our AI transformation approach.

2016-2020
Expanding Capabilities

Recognizing that successful cloud migration required deeper expertise, we evolved into a full-service provider, combining our platform with hands-on implementation. This period saw us expand into cloud integration, cloud-native development, and managed services across North America, EMEA, and APAC. By 2020, we had successfully migrated over 500 workloads to the cloud and served our 100th customer.

2021-2023
Networking Innovation

Building on our infrastructure expertise, we expanded into advanced networking when our leadership co-founded the LF Connectivity project—a top-level Linux Foundation initiative pioneering open connectivity and networking solutions. This work became the foundation of what would later become the bottom layer of our Value Pyramid.

2023-Present
Going All-In on AI

In 2023, we began our focused expansion into AI, leveraging our unique combination of cloud, data, and networking expertise. We recognized that the greatest challenge in AI adoption wasn’t the algorithms—it was making enterprise data actually work for AI. Our experience had perfectly positioned us to solve this problem through our Value Pyramid approach:

  1. Foundational Infrastructure: Public or private cloud, open-source network, and complete security
  2. Data Platforms: Data collection and orchestration pipelines
  3. AI/ML Applications: From predictive AI to GenAI and agentic solutions

Our team has continued to grow and we transformed our mission to focus entirely on helping enterprises succeed with AI—from data foundation to intelligent applications.
