Cloud Migration
Improve your website’s sustainability, security and scalability by migrating to the cloud. Our specialists have supported The Commonwealth, Genomics England, Worcester Bosch and many other organisations.
Migrating from outdated servers to cloud hosting offers many fantastic benefits to your organisation, including greater flexibility, smoother website performance, better costs optimisation, improved security, and greater resilience through events such as periods of heavy load. Migrating to the cloud can also make your website or application more efficient, sustainable and scalable, providing a solid foundation for continued growth and evolution long into the future.
Every migration is unique, and each project calls for robust strategy and planning. We begin by fully assessing your existing infrastructure and codebase, then generating a roadmap for a smooth transition to the cloud. Our specialists are here to support you with: a complete refactoring and rebuild to get your website ready for cloud migration; a straightforward lift-and-shift; technical support for your in-house team, or a long-term DevOps and hosting partner to support continued excellent performance.
Refactoring websites and applications can be an essential step to prepare your website or application for cloud migration, so your organisation can fully benefit from the flexibility, resilience and scalability of cloud-based features. As experts in web application technologies including Laravel, Drupal and many more, we’re experienced in carrying out complex refactoring projects that provide a high return on investment for our clients.
As a cloud agnostic agency, we'll select a hosting setup to best suit your organisational needs, optimising for resilience and cost-effectiveness. We’re highly experienced in many cloud technologies including Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Acquia Drupal cloud hosting, Amazon Web Services (AWS) with the use of Kubernetes and container-based hosting, such as Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS). We also support clients on Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud and Acquia Drupal cloud.
Once we have an agreed plan, we'll execute the migration with minimal to no downtime. We use Infrastructure as Code to automate the provisioning of the new cloud setup, which speeds up iterations and disaster recovery simulations.
We will also build or update continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines to automate the deployment of your applications. Once our quality, accessibility, security and compliance tests are completed, we will process the final data migration and DNS switchover for a seamless transition.
Whatever the project or particular challenge you have in mind, we’re here with the right people, process and technology to help deliver the transformation you need.
