Cloud Migration

From Legacy-Altlast into the cloud

We modernize your IT step by step: secure migration to the cloud, optimized costs and more scalability – without standstill in day-to-day business.

Why legacy systems are becoming a risk

Historically grown IT landscapes are expensive, inflexible and difficult to secure. The longer the modernization waits, the higher the costs and risks.

  • Old on-premise systems cause high maintenance costs and failure risks.
  • Outdated software slows down security, compliance and new functions.
  • Without FinOps strategy, unplanned cloud costs surprise.
  • Lack of know-how makes migration a risk.

Our cloud services

From analytics to optimized operations – vendor-neutral for Azure, AWS and Google Cloud. Turn the map over for details.

Migration assessment

Analysis & clear roadmap.

What we do

We evaluate applications, dependencies and costs and recommend each System Rehost, Replatform or Refactor.

Safe migration

Step by step without failure.

What we do

We gradually migrate workloads to Azure, AWS or Google Cloud – on-going and with rollback security.

FinOps and optimization

Costs transparent & optimized.

What we do

Right-sizing, automation and continuous cost monitoring keep your cloud spending under control.

Three Ways to the Cloud

Not every application needs the same path. In the assessment, we choose the most economical strategy for each system – from a fast move to a cloud-native new building. Choose an approach:

Rehost "Lift & Shift"Moving without conversion

Applications are moved largely unchanged to the cloud – the fastest way out of your own data center.

Ideal for: Data center exit, fast migration, limited time
Migration effort
Tempo of migration
Cloud benefits
ReplatformTargeted optimization

Individual components are cloud-optimized (e.g. managed databases, containers) – without rewriting the application.

Ideal at: Quick Wins at Operation & Costs, without major renovation
Migration effort
Tempo of migration
Cloud benefits
RefactorRethinking the cloud natively

The application will be transformed native to the cloud (microservices, serverless, auto-scaling) for maximum scaling and future-proofing.

Ideal for: high scaling requirements, long-term future security

Public, Private or Hybrid Cloud

Which operating model suits you? We choose the right mix with you – for scalability, data security and costs in balance.

scalable

Public Cloud

Maximum scalability and fast deployment in Azure, AWS or Google Cloud – ideal for variable loads.

  • Start in days instead of months
  • Pay-as-you-go – only pay what goes
  • Global Reach & Managed Services

data sovereign

Private Cloud

Dedicated infrastructure on-premise or in the German data center – full data sovereignty for sensitive workloads.

  • GDPR & Compliance, on request 0 byte drain
  • Dedicated, isolated resources
  • Full control over data & operations

the Best of Both

Hybrid Cloud

Sensitive data remains private, scalable loads run in the public cloud – seamlessly connected.

  • Sensitive remains internal, load scales externally
  • Load peaks elastically into the cloud
  • Gradual, low-risk migration
Elastic scalability

Resources automatically grow with your load – and shrink again. cushioning load peaks, without hardware in stock to buy.

Cost reduction

You only pay what you use. With FinOps, Right-Sizing and Automation Typically up to 40% less Infrastructure costs.

This is how we proceed

Structured from analysis to optimized cloud operation.

Assessment

Inventory of applications, dependencies and costs.

2

Strategy

Migration strategy per application – Rehost, Replatform or Refactor.

3

Migration

Gradual, safe conversion in ongoing operation.

4

Optimisation

Right-sizing, automation and FinOps cost control.

5

Operation

Monitoring, security and continuous development.

What distinguishes our cloud migration

  • Appropriate strategy for each application: Rehost, Replatform or Refactor
  • Manufacturer neutral: Azure, AWS and Google Cloud
  • Containerization with Docker & Kubernetes
  • Infrastructure as Code (terraform) for reproducible environments
  • FinOps: continuous cost control and right-sizing
  • Security & GDPR compliance, hybrid and on-premise options

Frequent questions about cloud migration

This depends on the number and complexity of the applications. We start with an assessment and then migrate gradually – first workloads are often productive in a few weeks.
No. We migrate step-by-step and low-risk operations, prioritizing benefits and efforts.
None of them. We work manufacturer-neutrally with Azure, AWS and Google Cloud and choose the most economical option – also hybrid.
With FinOps: cost transparency, right-sizing and ongoing optimization.
Yes. Sensitive workloads remain on-premise while others migrate to the cloud.
