Workload &
business constraints.
Application moves fail at the handoffs: a DNS owner is missing, a vendor cannot test or a database freeze was never agreed. The migration plan connects technical work to the people who can accept the result.
When this service fits
- Business applications leaving a hosted server
- An established website moving to a scalable platform
- Databases that need a controlled migration window
Delivery plan.
Prepare the destination
Set up agreed network, access, logging and backup foundations before copying production data.
Rehearse with a pilot
Validate application compatibility and compare source and destination data.
Cut over and stabilise
Follow named decision points, monitor the service and keep the rollback window explicit.
AWS components we consider.
The final selection follows the workload, compatibility and regional requirements. These components are a starting point for design.
AWS Application Migration Service
Assess server replication for compatible source systems.
AWS Database Migration Service
Evaluate supported database migration paths and validation.
Amazon EC2 & Amazon RDS
Select compute and database targets that fit existing applications.
What you receive.
- Migration wave plan and owner list
- Cutover and rollback runbooks
- Validation record and operating handover
Agree how success is checked.
- Business users sign off representative transactions.
- Data checks cover the agreed reconciliation scope.
- Support ownership is active before the source is retired.
What we need from you
Application access, vendor availability, data volumes, DNS ownership and an agreed change window.
How the scope is defined
Application rewrites and licence changes need separate estimates. Downtime depends on the source, transfer method and application behaviour.
