Cloud Migration Services
We move workloads from on-premise, Heroku, DigitalOcean, and other platforms to AWS, GCP, or Azure. Phased approach, infrastructure as code, rollback plan at every step.
Sound familiar?
Heroku or DigitalOcean costs keep climbing
Dynos and add-ons get more expensive as you grow. No control over infrastructure, no room to optimise.
On-premise servers are aging out
Hardware procurement takes months. Colocation costs rise yearly. Every outage is a gamble without full redundancy.
You don't know which cloud to pick
AWS, Azure, GCP - every vendor promises the best fit. You need an objective assessment tied to your actual stack.
The team fears production cutover
Migrating production sounds risky. Nobody wants to own a multi-hour outage.
You migrated yourself, but costs are higher than on-prem
EC2 instead of managed services, no reservations, oversized instances. Cloud is more expensive because the architecture wasn't optimised.
Your AI-built app needs production infrastructure
Built with Lovable, Cursor, or Bolt on Supabase/Vercel? It works for validation, but investors and regulators need more. Our SmartVibe migration delivers production-grade AWS in under four months at a fixed price.
No one to maintain the new environment
Migration is just the beginning. Who patches, monitors, and responds to incidents after the move?
What changes after migrating with Devopsity
Infrastructure as Code from day one
Every environment is reproducible, versioned, and auditable. No more clicking in consoles.
Costs under control from the start
FinOps built into the migration plan. Right-sizing, reservations, and budgets set before the first workload hits production.
Zero unplanned downtime at cutover
Phased approach with blue-green cutover and rollback plans at every step. Production keeps running.
Team ready to operate
Documentation, runbooks, and knowledge transfer. Or we take over CloudOps on a retainer.
How we solve migration problems
Problem
PaaS costs keep climbing
We move workloads to ECS Fargate, Cloud Run, or AKS with pay-as-you-go pricing and FinOps from day 1. Typical savings of 30-50% vs Heroku.
Problem
On-premise servers are aging out
Phased migration starting with a PoC - no capex, with AWS MAP funding covering up to 80% of project costs.
Problem
Don't know which cloud to pick
Assessment based on your existing stack, compliance requirements, and cost profile. We don't push one vendor - we match the platform to the situation.
Problem
Team fears production cutover
Rollback plan at every stage. Blue-green cutover with automatic switchover after validation. Production keeps running.
Problem
Costs higher than on-prem after migration
Audit and re-platforming - replace EC2 with managed services, right-size instances, apply Savings Plans. We reduce the bill without architecture changes.
Problem
No one to maintain the new environment
After migration we take over CloudOps or train your team. Runbooks, monitoring, and incident response included in a retainer.
Why migrate to the cloud
Flexibility and scalability
Scale compute, storage, and networking on demand. No hardware procurement cycles, no capacity guesswork.
Cost optimisation
Replace fixed data-centre costs with pay-as-you-go pricing. Right-size resources from day one with FinOps practices built into the migration plan.
Security and compliance
Encryption at rest and in transit, IAM policies, audit logging, and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR) supported natively by AWS, GCP, and Azure.
High availability
Multi-AZ and multi-region architectures with automated failover. Designed for minimal downtime during and after migration.
Performance
Access to current-generation compute, managed databases, and global CDN infrastructure. Measurable latency improvements from the first migrated workload.
Automation
Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD pipelines, and GitOps workflows replace manual provisioning. Every environment is reproducible.
How we deliver cloud migration services
Our process is based on frameworks from leading cloud providers (AWS MAP, Azure CAF, GCP Migration Framework) and scaled to fit your project. Smaller migrations follow a streamlined cycle; larger estates go through the full phased approach.
Phase 1: Assess
Audit your current environment, map application dependencies, evaluate migration readiness, and build the business case.
- •Infrastructure and application inventory (Discovery)
- •Service dependency mapping
- •Workload classification using the 7R strategy
- •TCO analysis comparing current vs target costs
- •Organisational and skills readiness assessment
- •Qualification for funding programmes (AWS MAP, AWS PoC, AWS IW for startups, Azure PoC)
Phase 2: Mobilize
Build cloud foundations, validate architecture through a PoC, and prepare the team for migration.
- •Landing Zone design (networking, IAM, policies)
- •Target architecture as code (Terraform/Bicep)
- •Infrastructure CI/CD pipeline configuration
- •Proof of Concept on 1-2 representative workloads
- •Performance, cost, and compliance validation
- •Wave-based migration plan with application sequencing
- •Team training on new tools and processes
Phase 3: Migrate
Move workloads in waves from non-production to production. Every wave has a rollback plan.
- •Wave-based migration - dev, staging, production
- •Database migration (DMS, pg_dump, native replication)
- •Application containerisation and deployment to target platform
- •Monitoring and alerting configuration
- •Performance and integration testing after each wave
- •Blue-green or canary cutover for production
- •Rollback plan ready at every stage
Phase 4: Modernize
Optimise the post-migration environment for cost, performance, security, and operational automation.
- •Instance right-sizing based on actual usage
- •Savings Plans / Committed Use Discounts implementation
- •Replace self-managed components with managed services
- •CI/CD pipeline optimisation and deploy time reduction
- •Security hardening (WAF, GuardDuty/Security Command Center)
- •Operational documentation and runbooks
Phase 5: Operate
Hand over the environment to your team or take over CloudOps on a maintenance retainer.
- •Knowledge transfer and team training
- •Documentation, runbook, and dashboard handover
- •On-call process and escalation configuration
- •Optional full CloudOps takeover by Devopsity
- •Quarterly cost and architecture reviews (Well-Architected Review)

What determines cloud migration cost
Environment complexity
Number of applications, microservices, databases, and external system integrations directly impacts migration time and cost.
Compliance requirements
Regulated environments (fintech, healthcare, public sector) require additional configuration: encryption, audit logging, network isolation - increasing project scope.
Degree of modernisation
Lift-and-shift (1:1 move) is faster and cheaper than re-architecting (microservices, containerisation, serverless). The approach is matched to business objectives.
Number of environments
Migrating a single production environment is the minimum. Most organisations need dev, staging, and production - each requiring IaC and CI/CD configuration.
