How cloud migration services benefit your organization
Cut operational costs
The flexible architecture of cloud enables businesses to effectively manage resources, easily scaling to match need and size.
Improve data security
84% of enterprises have already adopted a multi-cloud strategy and on-premise infrastructure, for added security.
Increase process efficiency
The cloud’s flexibility and agility improve and increases an organization’s processes efficiency, lowers costs, and drives innovation for product development.
Collaborate more effectively
Our cloud migration service helps you maintain a workflow with your colleagues, partners and stakeholders all over the world, in real time.
Improve infrastructure scalability
Expand your computing capacities up or out by scaling resources according to demand to accommodate fluctuating workloads and support dynamic growth.
Disaster recovery and business continuity
Take advantage of inherent disaster recovery mechanisms implemented in cloud platforms to guarantee consistent data backup and recovery in the event of failure.
How is cloud migration implemented?
How do companies migrate to the cloud?
Companies migrate to the cloud by assessing workloads, choosing a suitable migration strategy such as rehost, replatform, or refactor, and implementing migration using automation and DevOps practices.
What is the cloud migration process?
The process includes discovery, infrastructure assessment, migration planning, data and application transfer, testing, deployment, and ongoing monitoring and optimization.
How long does cloud migration take?
Cloud migration typically takes from a few weeks to several months depending on data volume, system complexity, and integration requirements.
What are the benefits of cloud migration?
Why use cloud migration services?
Cloud migration services help reduce infrastructure costs, improve scalability, enhance system performance, and enable faster deployment of applications.
What are the key benefits of cloud migration?
Key benefits include improved flexibility, better resource utilization, enhanced security, high availability, and support for cloud-native applications.
How does cloud migration improve business performance?
Cloud migration improves performance by enabling faster time-to-market, increasing operational efficiency, and supporting scalable and reliable IT environments.

The 7 R’s of Cloud Migration Strategy
Rehost
Move existing applications to the cloud as-is — the fastest path with no code changes, ideal when speed and minimal disruption matter most.
Replatform
Make targeted optimizations during the move (managed databases, autoscaling) without rearchitecting the application.
Refactor
Re-architect applications to fully leverage cloud-native services for scalability, resilience, and long-term cost efficiency.
Repurchase
Replace legacy apps with cloud-native SaaS alternatives — e.g. move CRM to Salesforce, HR to Workday.
Retire
Decommission applications no longer providing business value to reduce maintenance overhead and security exposure.
Retain
Keep selected applications on-premises temporarily when there is no immediate business case to migrate — re-evaluate later.
Relocate
Move VMware workloads to VMware Cloud on AWS at the hypervisor level — no OS, code, or operational changes required.
