Why migration deserves its own careful process
Moving infrastructure to the cloud isn't just copying files across — it involves recreating server configuration, database setup, security rules and network configuration in a new environment, any of which can introduce subtle issues if rushed. A poorly planned migration risks downtime during the cutover or, worse, data inconsistencies that aren't caught until after the old environment is decommissioned.
We plan migrations to run the new environment in parallel and verified before cutting over, so there's always a way back if something doesn't work as expected.
What's included
Our process
Audit
Current infrastructure documented — servers, data, dependencies.
Environment setup
New cloud environment configured to match or improve on current setup.
Data migration
Data moved and verified against the source before cutover.
Parallel run
New environment tested alongside the old before switching fully.
Cutover
DNS and traffic switched with a rollback plan ready if needed.
Who this is for
Businesses moving from on-premise servers, an underperforming host, or consolidating infrastructure onto cloud platforms for better scalability and management. Particularly important to plan carefully for businesses that can't afford downtime during the transition.
Engagement & pricing
Priced per migration project based on infrastructure complexity and data volume, quoted after the initial audit.
One more thing worth knowing
We also document exactly what changed during the migration, so if a subtle issue surfaces weeks later, there's a clear record to trace it back to rather than guessing what might have shifted. It's a small habit that pays off disproportionately the one time it's actually needed. Small effort, real peace of mind later. Worth doing.
Frequently asked questions
We plan for minimal to zero downtime using a parallel-run approach — the new environment is verified working before cutting over, with a rollback option available.
The parallel-run approach means the old environment stays available as a fallback until the new one is fully verified, reducing the risk of an unrecoverable issue.
Data is checked against the source through reconciliation before the old environment is decommissioned, catching discrepancies while they're still fixable.
Generally yes — the specific approach depends on your current setup and target platform, which we scope during the initial audit.
Depends heavily on infrastructure complexity and data volume — a straightforward website migration can take days; a larger application with substantial data can take weeks.
