The benefits of AWS and cloud are well known. Getting your IT into AWS is the first step to leveraging the benefits of public cloud. How to migrate your organisation safely to its cloud future can be less clear. We're here to help.

Our tried and tested cloud migration methodology works - whether for a full datacentre evacuation or a single workload.

To start, we evaluate your requirements, platforms and applications, and determine a migration model for each workload. Where appropriate, that includes replacing legacy applications with SaaS and re-engineering where the opportunity arises. When the workload migrations commence, our experience allows us to perform them safely, with minimal business disruption.

Migration stages include:

• Connectivity and landing zone establishment
• Workload migrations - lift-and-shift, re-platform, re-engineer or replace with SaaS
• Security, load and disaster recovery testing
• Post-implementation hypercare support
• Datacentre shutdown

The end of the migration is only the beginning of your cloud transformation journey. Then the real fun begins.
