Cloud migration: AWS, Azure & Google Cloud.
Move your application to the cloud with a plan, a rehearsal and a safe fallback, and get hosting that fits your size and budget.
A cloud migration moves your application, database and files from servers or shared hosting to a provider such as AWS, Google Cloud or Azure. The process is inventory, build the new environment, rehearse with a copy, cut over at a quiet time, and keep the old setup as a fallback until everything is verified.
Sound familiar?
- Your current hosting is slow, expensive or unreliable.
- One server failure would take the business down.
- You need to scale for growth or seasonal traffic.
- Your host is shutting down or changing terms.
How we handle it.
Four clear steps, with you informed at each one.
Inventory
List servers, databases, jobs, domains and third-party dependencies.
Build the new environment
Set up infrastructure, security and backups, ideally as code.
Rehearse
Run the full move on a copy and measure results.
Cut over
Switch DNS and traffic at a quiet time, monitor and keep rollback ready.
Mistakes to avoid.
Lift and shift without thinking
Moving as is can keep costs high. Right-size the setup.
Forgetting email and DNS
These are often missed and cause outages.
No cost monitoring
Set budgets and alerts from day one.
Common questions.
Which cloud is best?
It depends on your stack, region and budget. We recommend the simplest option that meets your needs.
Will there be downtime?
Usually minutes or none with a rehearsed plan.
Can you manage it afterwards?
Yes, through a maintenance plan with monitoring and updates.
