Cloud Migration
Move production systems to AWS, GCP, or Azure without planned downtime — assessment first, every cutover rehearsed.
Cloud migration
We take production systems off ageing infrastructure and onto AWS, GCP, or Azure without stopping them. Every cutover is planned, dual-run, and reversible — not a weekend gamble with a rollback engineer on standby.
What usually goes wrong
Migrations fail when someone invents the plan at 2am. No risk register, no dual-run, no rehearsal — just a cutover window and hope. We built the engagement the other way around: assessment and written risk before architecture, then a cutover you can reverse at any step.
How an engagement runs
- Assess — inventory, dependency graph, risk register (week one)
- Plan — target architecture, cutover design, rollback rehearsal, stakeholder comms
- Migrate — staged cutover, dual-run validation, live monitoring
- Verify — load and failover tests, security review, sign-off
- Optimise — cost tuning, runbooks, team handover (ninety days included)
Every phase ends with a decision point. You can stop at any of them.
What we hold ourselves to
- Zero planned downtime on cutover day — dual-run first, traffic shifts gradually, rollback ready
- Infrastructure as code — no console-built snowflakes; Terraform reviewed like application code
- Cost after, not only before — right-sizing and continuous review, not lift-and-shift-and-forget
- Written decision points — you get a read-back after each phase, not a black box until go-live
FigArchitecture
Most engagements end here: containerised workloads on managed Kubernetes, shipped through CI/CD, watched end to end — and cheaper to run than the estate they replaced.
What you get
Deliverables
- Migration assessment and risk register
- Infrastructure-as-code for the target estate
- Rehearsed zero-downtime cutover
- Ninety days of post-migration optimisation
FAQ
How long does a typical migration take?
Depends on size and coupling. Assessment is usually 1–2 weeks. Many estates land first workloads in 8–16 weeks from kickoff; complex multi-system programmes run longer and we phase them.
What about cost versus on-premise?
Often 30–50% lower run cost in the first year when right-sized — not guaranteed for every estate. We model it in the assessment before you commit.
Will there be downtime?
Planned downtime target is zero for cutover. We dual-run, rehearse traffic shift, and keep rollback ready. If a workload cannot meet that, we say so in writing before we start.
