What is Cloud Migration?

Cloud migration is the process of moving an organization's applications, data, and infrastructure from on-premises servers to a cloud provider like AWS, Azure, or GCP. The process involves meticulous planning, selecting the right migration strategy, and often re-architecting workloads to leverage cloud-native benefits.

Due to the inherent complexity and risk of downtime or data loss, many businesses engage external vendors to provide the specialized expertise and proven methodologies needed to execute the migration with minimal disruption to operations.

Why tech leaders trust us with their cloud migrations:

A cloud migration is a high-stakes, one-time event. Getting it wrong leads to cost overruns, security risks, and business disruption. We run migrations against a documented plan with risk controls for security, cost, and timeline.

Speak With Our Team

We use a rigorous screening process and hire less than 1% of all applicants. Our cloud experts average 10+ years of experience and are vetted in AWS, Azure, and GCP. They have deep expertise in migration strategies, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and containerization. You get direct, real-time access to our cloud specialists during your working hours, eliminating the friction of offshoring.

Anyone can "lift-and-shift" a server, but this usually results in a costly, inefficient mess. We migrate and modernize. We focus on designing a target architecture that truly leverages the cloud. We establish a secure landing zone, right-size resources to control costs, and apply cloud-native patterns. This means your new environment is not just moved but modernized, making it scalable and easy to manage long after the migration.

Cloud misconfigurations are a leading cause of data breaches. We build security into the foundation of your new environment, following the principles of the Cloud Adoption Framework. Using IaC, we create a secure, repeatable, and auditable infrastructure. This includes configuring Identity and Access Management (IAM), network security, and encryption to support SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR requirements with audit-ready logging, encryption, and access controls.

End-to-End Cloud Migration Services

We de-risk your move to the cloud.

Our expert cloud architects and engineers have successfully migrated complex, business-critical workloads for leading enterprises, ensuring a secure and cost-effective transition.

ISO 27001 certified - Information Security Management System

Cloud Readiness Assessment and Strategy

Migrating to the cloud without a clear strategy can result in budget overruns and security vulnerabilities. We begin with a comprehensive assessment of your current infrastructure, applications, and business goals. We analyze TCO, identify risks, and define the optimal migration strategy (Rehost, Replatform, or Refactor) for each workload. The result is a data-driven roadmap that underpins a successful migration.

Infrastructure and Server Migration

Your on-premise data center is an operational anchor, demanding constant hardware refreshes and complex management. We handle the heavy lifting of migrating your entire fleet of physical and virtual servers to a modern Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) platform on AWS, Azure, or GCP. Our aim to provide a smooth transition, replicating your network topology and ensuring server dependencies are maintained to establish a solid cloud foundation that eliminates CapEx and reduces overhead.

Application Migration and Refactoring

Legacy monolithic applications are difficult to scale and maintain in the cloud. Simply moving them "as-is" fails to unlock the cloud's full potential. We refactor and modernize your critical applications for a cloud-native architecture. This often involves breaking down monoliths into microservices, containerizing them with Docker and Kubernetes, or re-architecting them to use serverless technologies.

Database Migration and Modernization

Production database cutovers are high-risk. Our certified database specialists manage this high-risk process, moving complex databases like Oracle and SQL Server to managed, cloud-native services such as Amazon Aurora or Azure SQL. We focus on escaping expensive legacy licensing and unlocking the scalability and resilience of the cloud, with minimal disruption.

Cloud Cost Optimization and Governance (FinOps)

After migrating, many organizations face unexpectedly high cloud bills due to unmanaged resources and inefficient configurations. We implement a robust FinOps practice to give you visibility and control over your cloud spending. We analyze your usage, right-size resources, and establish governance policies and budgets to prevent waste, leading to predictable and significantly lower cloud costs.

Cloud Migration FAQ

What businesses ask about our cloud migration services before pulling us in:

Will migration impact our users?

Minimizing user impact is our top priority, and we target near-zero downtime. Through meticulous planning, we design strategies like phased rollouts, blue-green deployments, and data synchronization to achieve zero-downtime migrations where feasible. Our goal is a seamless transition that is transparent to your end-users and protects business continuity.

What’s the difference between lift-and-shift and re-architecture?

Lift-and-shift (rehosting) moves your applications to the cloud 'as-is' for speed and minimal change. Re-architecture (refactoring) redesigns your applications to be cloud-native, maximizing performance, scalability, and long-term cost efficiency. We help you choose the right strategy for each workload.

Can you help with cost optimization?

Yes, cost optimization is a core part of our practice. Leveraging FinOps principles, our experts help you control cloud spend by right-sizing resources, eliminating waste, implementing cost allocation tagging, and setting up monitoring to ensure long-term financial governance and a clear return on investment.

Which platforms do you support?

We are platform-agnostic experts with deep certification and experience across all major cloud providers, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). We also specialize in designing and managing complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

What specific migration tools do you use?

We leverage a combination of native migration tools from providers like AWS (e.g., AWS DMS) and Azure (e.g., Azure Migrate), alongside best-in-class third-party platforms. This flexible approach allows us to select the right tool for each specific workload, ensuring a secure and efficient transfer into your new cloud computing environment.

What happens after the migration project is complete?

A migration project is just the beginning of your cloud journey. We offer comprehensive managed services for the ongoing management of your cloud environment, handling security, optimization, and maintenance. Our goal is to be a long-term, trusted partner ensuring you get the maximum value from your investment.

How do you handle migrating complex legacy applications?

Absolutely. Migrating applications, especially monolithic legacy applications, is one of our core strengths. Our process involves a deep analysis of the application and its dependencies. We then architect a tailored plan for both the application code and the process of moving data, executing the migration with a clear focus on achieving minimal downtime.

How do you ensure security during the migration process?

Security is integral to every stage of our process. We ensure all data is encrypted both in transit and at rest during the migration. Post-migration, we configure your cloud environment following security best practices, including implementing the principle of least privilege and setting up robust monitoring to protect your critical assets.
