AWS Migrations

Migration is more than moving data — it's about evolving your business. Our Sherpa-led approach follows the proven AWS Three-Phase Framework, adding deep technical scrutiny to ensure your workloads land in a Gold Standard environment designed for security, performance, and long-term cost-efficiency.

Mitigate Migration Risk

Detect hidden inter-dependency traps before they cause a production outage.

Establish Financial Clarity

Move from estimated costs to a data-backed TCO that the CFO can sign off on with confidence.

Achieve Operational Readiness

Ensure your team is trained and equipped with validated runbooks before the first workload goes live.

Unlock Elasticity

Move beyond simple hosting to a state where your infrastructure automatically scales with business demand.

AWS MAP Three-Phase Solutioning

01

Assess Phase: Data-Driven Discovery

Detailed Architecture Mapping — A 360-degree view of your current-state infrastructure.
Estimated TCO Analysis — A side-by-side financial model comparing legacy costs vs. optimized AWS spend.
Dependency & Risk Mapping — Identify how your applications interconnect to ensure no service is left behind.
02

Mobilize Phase: Building the Foundation

AWS Landing Zone Deployment — A secure, multi-account environment via AWS Control Tower with baked-in guardrails.
Architecture Adjustment & Testing — Refine the blueprint against real-world tests for peak performance.
Playbook & Runbook Development — Detailed operational scripts and incident response guides before migration.
03

Migrate & Modernize Phase: Execution

Seamless, Low-Downtime Transition — AWS Application Migration Service (MGN) and automated cutover scripts for surgical precision.
Built-in Elastic Scalability — Cloud-native elasticity that automatically scales with demand.
Performance Efficiency Pillar — Right-sized instances including Graviton-based resources for peak performance.
Operational Excellence Validation — Deep-dive benchmarking ensuring 99.99% availability.
