CLOUD MIGRATION

Move to the cloud without betting the business on the cutover.

Most failed migrations fail at the same place: an undocumented dependency nobody found until the cutover. We spend the first two weeks finding those, then rehearse the move in a staging twin before we touch production.

What we deliver

Inventory and dependency map

Every application, database, integration, and scheduled job, including the ones only one person still remembers.

Disposition plan with costs

Rehost, replatform, refactor, or retire, decided per workload with the monthly run-cost attached to each option.

Rehearsed cutover

The migration runs end to end in a staging twin first, with the rollback path tested, not just written down.

Post-migration optimisation

A 30-day tuning sprint after go-live: right-sizing, reserved capacity, and the alerting you now actually need.


How we work

1
Discover

Two weeks of inventory, dependency mapping, and current-cost baselining. You get the map whether or not you migrate with us.

2
Decide

A disposition per workload, sequenced so the low-risk moves go first and pay for the hard ones.

3
Rehearse

Full dry run in a staging twin. Timings measured, rollback tested, cutover runbook written from the rehearsal.

4
Cut over and optimise

The real move, in the agreed window, followed by 30 days of tuning and a handover your team can run.

Common questions

How much downtime should we plan for?

For most web and database workloads, minutes rather than hours. Replication runs ahead of time, and the switch is a DNS or connection-string change. Legacy systems with no replication path are the exception, and we tell you which yours are during discovery, not on cutover night.

What about applications nobody can rebuild?

They get rehosted as-is first. Moving and modernising at the same time is how migrations slip. Once it is running in the cloud and stable, modernisation becomes an ordinary project instead of a deadline.

Can we keep some systems on-premise?

Yes, and often you should. Hybrid is a legitimate end state. We design the identity, network, and backup story so the two halves behave like one estate.
