Cloud Computing & Cloud Migration

Why it matters

Ageing servers, manual deployments and fragile backups put businesses at risk and slow down innovation. The cloud offers scalability, resilience and access to powerful managed services — but migrations can go wrong when dependencies are missed, security is an afterthought or costs are not controlled. A well-planned migration reduces risk and sets you up to keep improving.

What we deliver

• Cloud readiness assessments covering applications, data, dependencies and costs.
• Migration strategy per workload: rehost, re-platform, refactor, replace or retire.
• Secure landing zones with identity, networking, logging and guardrails as code.
• Phased migrations with rehearsed cut-overs and rollback plans.
• Serverless and container platforms for modern applications.
• Cost optimisation with tagging, budgets, alerts and right-sizing.
• Backup and disaster recovery designed around your recovery objectives.

How we work

We inventory your systems and map dependencies, agree success measures and constraints, and design the target architecture. Foundations come first: a secure, automated landing zone. Workloads then move in waves, starting with lower-risk systems, with thorough validation and clear communication to users. After go-live, we monitor performance and costs, optimise resources and decommission legacy infrastructure.

Everything is defined as infrastructure as code where possible, so environments are reproducible, reviewable and easy to recover. Our cloud migration checklist outlines the full process.

Who it is for

This service suits organisations with on-premise infrastructure approaching end of life, businesses with unpredictable cloud bills, and teams that want to modernise applications using managed cloud services. It pairs naturally with our DevOps and CI/CD practice.

What success looks like

After a successful migration, deployments are automated, environments are consistent and recovery from failures is fast and rehearsed. Costs are visible by application and team, with budgets and alerts preventing surprises. Legacy hardware has been retired, security controls are applied consistently, and your team understands how to operate and evolve the new platform. Most importantly, the business can launch new services faster because infrastructure is no longer a bottleneck.

We also help you choose between providers and services objectively, explaining the trade-offs between managed services, containers and serverless options so architecture decisions match your skills and budget.
