Business Cloud Migration Providers

Cloud Migration

Cloud Migration is becoming more relevant in this day and age due to the fact that more businesses are taking advantage of remote and home working for their employees. At 777, we take over the hassle and let you focus on your important work. Contact us today to find out how we can help move your server to the cloud.

What Are Cloud Migration Services?

Cloud migration is the action of moving data and other elements of a business from their own physical servers onto a 24/7 server accessible from most parts of the world. Cloud migration can also be done cloud-to-cloud but this is not as common. Most businesses are looking for “move server to cloud” services.

Some business owners may even have been actively discouraged by vendors or support partners from attempting any form of cloud computer systems migration because they themselves don’t actually have the skills necessary to achieve it and therefore for that particular system it has already been written off as a total non-starter project.

Because of the restrictions and measures needed to keep safe yet keep operating during the recent outbreak of COVID-19 / Coronavirus, many businesses have really struggled to keep functioning as normal with the traditional computer systems operating out of their normal office spaces.

Our Business Cloud Migration Services

We are business cloud migration providers, with a main goal of helping your business, big or small, move from server to the cloud. Typically, businesses will operate several systems to keep everything running smoothly. Because of these intricacies and links between modern business systems it is very easy to see why the prospect of migrating to the cloud would seem daunting, complex, or too difficult to even cost, let alone achieve. You might even be worried about losing data or files – don’t be.

The great news is that almost every computer system can be moved into the cloud in one way or another. Not only that, business cloud migration can be done relatively quickly, easily and cost effectively even if the business has old legacy systems still in use or many other issues they may see as a problem.

We will carry out a full evaluation of the entire computer network and computer systems infrastructure taking into account any existing Servers, Computers, Firewalls, Telephony and Business Applications such as Finance/Accounting Systems, Payroll or CRM databases or custom software and then work out a plan for moving to the cloud, custom built for your organisation.

Cloud Migration FAQs

There are 4 main types of business cloud migration, each used based on the individual needs of a company, and the way that different companies want to use the cloud in order to accomplish their goals. These 4 types of cloud migration are:

  • Lift and shift – Lift and shift migration provides the same software that your company already uses, but is hosted in the cloud, rather than locally. This is the fastest method of migration as it simply moves the code to a new location. The software should work exactly as before, with minimal disruption and involvement.
  • Software as a Service (SaaS) – SaaS is the process of outsourcing applications to a cloud service company that specialises in the management of those applications, for example, email. Switching to SaaS frees up employees to focus more on key tasks and operations, and also means that few licences are required for business tools.
  • Application Refactoring – Application refactoring is a low-risk migration where organisations can replicate legacy applications whole, and intact, onto a cloud platform. This provides benefits of agility and speed, whilst also allowing those legacy applications to run parallel whilst new applications are being developed.
  • Replatforming – Replatforming is for businesses that want to embrace all of the possibilities that come with cloud migration. It involves replacing the application at the code level in order to redevelop it to be cloud-native. This usually means a complete rewrite of the code, and as such can take time and money to do it right. However, the benefits of re-platforming mean that a business’ core competencies can be scalable, elastic, robust, resilient, and available.

There are many benefits in migrating to the cloud, namely productivity, agility, and flexibility. Other benefits of cloud migration include:

  • Scalability
  • Ability to innovate faster
  • Reduction in costs
  • Simplified management and monitoring
  • Enhanced security
  • Backup recovery

When migrating to the Azure cloud, we recommend a 4 step process;

  • Discover: Identify our software, workload, and processes that you want to migrate. This can be a long and tedious process, but it is essential for a smooth migration.
  • Assess: Categorise software, workload, and processes, and determine your requirements and priorities.
  • Target: Identify destinations for each workload/process and map out how your servers are going to be migrated. Consider factors such as speed, ease, cost, and functionality here.
  • Migrate: Perform the migration

Cloud hosting is a much safer, easier to use and often cheaper alternative to traditional hosting. It can be managed by an external company, meaning there is less risk of failure. Some more examples include:

  • Improving team collaboration
  • Faster loading times
  • Increased storage capacity
  • Reduced impact on the environment

We have a blog available which goes into more detail about the many benefits of cloud hosting over traditional hosting.
