Cloud and Growth Services

Cloud Migration Services

Cloud migration services move your servers, databases and applications from on-premise or older hosting to AWS, Azure or Google Cloud. We plan each workload individually, because not everything should move the same way, or at all.

Helping brands grow since 2013
Our approach

How we approach cloud migration services

Migrations go wrong when every server is copied as-is into the cloud, the bill turns out higher than the old data centre, and an overlooked dependency breaks an application on cutover night. Licensing surprises, data transfer costs and latency between cloud and remaining on-premise systems are other common shocks.

Discovery comes first: an inventory of servers, applications, databases and dependencies, along with usage data and business criticality. Each workload gets a decision: rehost, replatform onto managed services, refactor, retire or retain on-premise. We forecast the cloud cost for each before moving. Migration runs in waves, starting with lower-risk systems, with data replication to keep cutover windows short and a rollback plan for each. After migration, we tune sizing, set up backups, monitoring and security baselines, and hand over documented infrastructure.

  • A phased roadmap tied to business goals
  • Migrations planned to avoid downtime
  • Costs reviewed and reduced where possible

FAQ

Questions we often hear

Straight answers to the things clients ask us most. If yours isn’t here, just ask.

Still have a question?Talk to a strategist. We usually reply within one working day.Ask us directly
How long does a cloud migration take?
A small set of servers and applications can move in a few weeks. Larger estates with many interdependent systems typically migrate in waves over several months. Discovery and planning usually take more time than the actual data movement.
Will moving to the cloud reduce our IT costs?
It can, but not automatically. Savings come from rightsizing, using managed services, turning off idle resources and committing to steady usage. Lifting old servers into the cloud unchanged often costs more. We forecast costs per workload before migrating.
Do you offer fractional leadership?
Yes. Our fractional CMO and CTO services give you senior guidance without a full-time hire.
