Cloud Migration and Modernization
Organized migrations to the cloud with dependency mapping, testing, rollback plans and careful cutover, followed by modernization where it pays off.
Learn More about Cloud Migration and ModernizationWe design, deploy and manage cloud environments on Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure, matching each service to the workload it needs to run.
Both Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure offer hundreds of services. That breadth is useful, but it also makes it easy to build an environment that is more expensive, more complicated or less secure than it needs to be. Our role is to translate your business requirements into a cloud architecture that is appropriate for the workload, the people who will operate it, and the budget that has to pay for it.
We work across the core building blocks: compute services and virtual machines, managed databases, object and file storage, virtual networks, identity and access management, backup, monitoring and disaster recovery. For each workload we consider expected growth, availability requirements, data residency and compliance needs, and operating cost, and we document why each choice was made.
Choosing between AWS and Azure is rarely about which platform is better in general. Organizations already invested in Microsoft 365 and Active Directory often find Azure integrates naturally with their identity model, while others prefer AWS for particular services or existing team skills. We will set out the trade-offs honestly for your situation.
Security is built into the foundation rather than added later. We apply least-privilege access, separate production from development environments, segment networks, enable logging and alerting, and use infrastructure-as-code where practical so that configurations are repeatable and reviewable.
Cost governance matters as much as uptime. Cloud bills grow quietly through oversized instances, forgotten resources and unmanaged storage. We set up tagging, budgets and alerts, right-size resources based on observed usage, and recommend reserved capacity or savings plans only where usage patterns justify them.
Most businesses are best served by a single, well-run public cloud, sometimes connected to on-premises systems in a hybrid design. Multi-cloud architectures have real uses, such as specific regulatory or resilience requirements, but they add operational overhead, and we recommend them only when that overhead is clearly worth it.
Scale resources up for peaks and down when they are not needed, instead of buying for the worst case.
Backups, multiple availability zones and recovery plans sized to how critical each system is.
Budgets, alerts and tagging that show exactly where cloud money goes.
Documented architecture and automated deployments that reduce configuration drift.
Each stage ends with something you can review before we move on.
Workloads, users, data sensitivity, availability targets, compliance obligations and budget.
A reference design with network, identity, security and cost controls, reviewed with you.
Deployment using repeatable templates, with security baselines applied from the start.
Testing of access, performance, backup restores and failover procedures.
Monitoring, patching, cost reviews and improvements under an agreed support scope.
Hosting line-of-business systems with managed databases and controlled access.
Environments that can absorb seasonal traffic without permanent over-provisioning.
Secure access to applications and files for distributed teams.
Isolated, reproducible environments that can be created and removed on demand.
Off-site backups and recovery environments for critical systems.
It depends on your existing systems, team skills, required services and commercial considerations. We compare both against your workloads and explain the trade-offs before you decide.
It can, but it is not automatic. Savings depend on workload patterns, architecture and ongoing governance. We estimate costs during planning and review them after deployment.
You do. We recommend that cloud subscriptions and accounts are held in your organization’s name, with our team granted the access needed for the agreed work.
Ongoing administration, monitoring and optimization can be included as a separate support arrangement. The scope and response times are agreed in writing.
Share your workloads and goals, and we will outline an architecture and an approach to cost and security.
