BUILT AROUND YOUR APPLICATIONS
Start with what your business needs to keep running.
A successful move starts with understanding your servers, databases, identity services, integrations, and business priorities. We help translate those requirements into a practical AWS architecture and migration plan.
Whether you are moving an existing application or improving a workload already on AWS, we bring architecture, engineering, and operational experience together.
OUR SERVICES
Support across your Microsoft cloud journey.
Workload assessment
Review your environment, application dependencies, resource usage, and migration readiness to establish a clear starting point.
Windows Server on AWS
Plan and configure Windows Server environments on Amazon EC2, including access controls, networking, monitoring, and operational requirements.
SQL Server migration
Evaluate database hosting options, dependencies, compatibility, and recovery needs before planning migration and validation.
IIS and .NET applications
Map application configurations, certificates, integrations, and deployment processes so the target environment supports your application requirements.
Identity and security
Design connectivity, identity integration, permissions, and secure administration around your existing environment and business needs.
Operations and resilience
Establish monitoring, backup and recovery practices, patching plans, and cost reviews with responsibilities defined in the agreed service scope.
OUR APPROACH
A planned transition, with clear checkpoints.
Assess and design
Agree on the workload scope, document dependencies, and define the architecture, licensing considerations, and recovery requirements.
Test and migrate
Prepare the target environment, test applications and data, and coordinate cutover activities with your team and business schedule.
Stabilise and improve
Validate the environment after migration, document operational procedures, and identify opportunities to improve reliability and resource usage.
LICENSING AND COST PLANNING
Make informed choices before you move.
Microsoft licensing options depend on your agreements, products, and deployment requirements. We help identify the questions that need review alongside infrastructure sizing and migration planning.
License-included and eligible bring-your-own-license options should be evaluated for the specific workload. Savings and eligibility are assessed individually.

Plan your next step with clarity.
Can we migrate our existing Windows applications?
We start by reviewing application compatibility, dependencies, support requirements, and connectivity. This assessment informs the migration approach and any changes needed before cutover.
How do you select a SQL Server hosting option?
We consider your SQL Server version and features, administrative requirements, availability needs, integrations, and licensing position before recommending an approach.
Can migration happen without downtime?
Downtime depends on the workload and migration method. We agree on an acceptable cutover window, testing approach, and rollback plan rather than promising zero downtime.
Do you provide support after migration?
Ongoing support can be included in an agreed engagement. We define monitoring, maintenance, escalation, and recovery responsibilities with your team.
