Migrate for a reason

Cloud & Digital Modernisation

Not every workload belongs in the public cloud, and the ones that do rarely belong there unchanged. We assess each workload on cost, latency, data residency and operational fit, then migrate the ones with a real case and modernise the ones worth modernising. The rest stay where they are, which is often the honest answer.

Typical outcomes

  • 31%

    Average post-migration cost reduction

  • 3 clouds

    AWS, Azure and Google Cloud certified

  • Zero

    Unplanned rollbacks in 2025

Capabilities

What this service actually covers

Scoped areas, not marketing categories. Each one is something we can be held to in a statement of work.
  • Workload assessment & landing zone

    Per-workload disposition analysis and a governed landing zone with identity, network and policy baselines.

  • Migration execution

    Rehost, replatform or refactor with wave planning, cutover rehearsal and documented rollback.

  • Hybrid & private cloud

    VMware, Hyper-V and Nutanix platforms integrated with public cloud for genuinely hybrid operation.

  • FinOps & cost optimisation

    Tagging discipline, rightsizing, commitment planning and monthly showback that makes spend attributable.

Questions

The things buyers actually ask

Including the awkward ones. If you have a question that is not here, ask it directly — we answer in the same register.
Will you tell us not to migrate?

Regularly. Latency-bound manufacturing systems, heavily licensed legacy databases and low-change workloads on depreciated hardware usually have a weak case. We put that in writing with the numbers behind it.

Which cloud do you recommend?

Whichever your team can actually operate. Existing skills and licensing agreements move the business case far more than feature comparisons do.

Do you support us after migration?

Either through a defined handover to your team with runbooks and training, or as part of a managed service. We do not leave a landing zone without an owner.
