Cloud Migration

Off the old server, onto the cloud, without the outage.

Moving production is the riskiest thing most teams do all year. We de-risk it with dependency mapping, a rehearsed cutover and a rollback that actually works.

KPIs we move

  • Cutover downtime
  • Post-migration incidents
  • Run-rate change

What’s included

Everything cloud migration needs.

Dependency mapping

Every service, cron job and hardcoded IP found before the move.

Migration strategy per workload

Rehost, replatform or refactor decided case by case, not blanket.

Data migration & validation

Row counts and checksums verified, not assumed.

Rehearsed cutover

A full dry run, timed, with the runbook proven before the real window.

Rollback plan

A tested path back if the window goes wrong, never a one-way door.

Parallel running

Old and new side by side where the risk profile justifies it.

Why it matters

Outcomes, not activity.

Planned cutover

A window you control

Rehearsal turns an unknown-length outage into a scheduled, timed one.

No surprise dependencies

Mapping finds the forgotten cron job before it finds you at 2am.

Lower run rate

Right-sizing during migration usually reduces what you were paying before.

FAQs

Cloud Migration questions.

That is answered by the rehearsal, not by a guess up front. Most cutovers land in a short scheduled window, and some are zero-downtime.
The runbook has rollback criteria and a tested path back. The old environment stays live until the new one is verified.
Both, usually. We rehost what works, and only refactor where it removes real cost or risk.
Often yes for a rehost. Where hardcoded paths or IPs exist, those specific changes are scoped during discovery.
