Accelerate your Journey to the AWS Cloud

Accelerate your cloud adoption by migrating your infrastructure and applications to AWS without disrupting your business

Why Migrate to AWS?

Migrating to AWS can be a complex process, but we have the expertise and experience to make it a seamless transition. There are many different drivers for customers like you to initiate a journey to AWS. You may be driven by compelling events such as a cost objective, target dates to exit and consolidate data centers, or end of life hardware and software. However, the conversation is changing. 

Boards of Directors expect more than just cost savings and efficiency, even though customers are achieving 25-50% savings in AWS vs. on-premises costs. They want to be able to move faster and transform customer experiences. They want to deliver digital transformations and modernize businesses. They want to reinvest cost savings to drive new innovations and business models. 

This is particularly true for financial services firms. The financial services industry is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by advances in technology and changing customer expectations. Financial institutions need to be able to move quickly and respond to market changes in real-time, while also ensuring regulatory compliance and protecting customer data. 

Migrating to AWS can help financial services firms achieve these goals by providing a secure, scalable, and flexible cloud infrastructure that enables them to innovate and experiment with new products and services. AWS also offers a wide range of compliance certifications and security features that help financial services firms meet regulatory requirements and protect sensitive data. 

Our Approach to AWS Cloud Migrations 

We follow a proven approach to AWS cloud migrations that aligns with the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework. 

The Different Phases of a Migration Journey 

Your migration journey will typically involve several phases, including: 

  1. Assess: In this phase, we’ll assess your current IT environment and provide recommendations for optimization. We’ll help you understand your business objectives, evaluate your IT infrastructure, and determine your readiness for migration. 
  1. Mobilize: In this phase, we’ll create a migration plan that addresses your business requirements, migration approach, and risk management. We’ll also identify the AWS services that best suit your needs and ensure that your security and compliance requirements are met. 
  1. Migrate: During this phase, we’ll use AWS migration tools like AWS Server Migration Service, AWS Database Migration Service, and AWS DataSync to migrate your applications, data, and infrastructure to AWS. We’ll also perform testing, validation, and cutover activities to ensure minimal disruption to your business. 
  1. Modernize: Once the migration is complete, we’ll work with you to modernize your applications and infrastructure to take full advantage of the cloud. This includes optimizing your architecture, implementing automation and DevOps practices, and using AWS services to improve performance, scalability, and cost-efficiency.
