Options of migration to AWS cloud
Server migration to AWS
With this migration type, you will transfer your data, applications, and workloads from on-premises or other cloud servers to AWS. This will allow your business to enjoy the great features and tools AWS offers. However, if you choose to move servers as is, there will be no optimization. The best AWS migration solution is a complete digital transformation.
Database migration to AWS
You can move an existing database from an on-premises environment, another cloud service, or a legacy system. Your business will benefit from reduced database management overhead, improved performance, and scalability. We can migrate your database separately as part of a disaster recovery strategy. However, a comprehensive AWS migration solution is a better choice.
Data migration to AWS
Transfer your data from an on-premises storage environment, another cloud service, or a legacy system to AWS. This way, you can enhance its accessibility, scalability, durability, and security. Data migration to AWS can be done as an integral part of a full migration solution or as a separate service in some cases.
Application migration to AWS
By moving your application and its associated data to AWS, you will reduce operational costs and improve its flexibility, scalability, and performance. This will allow focusing on innovation and business development rather than infrastructure management. Migration can be performed from an on-premises environment, another cloud provider, or a legacy system.
Migration from on-premises to AWS
Moving from on-premises servers to AWS allows saving money and arranging better security for your system. You can choose between three main migration models: rehosting, replatforming, and refactoring. Rehosting means migration to AWS with no changes, replatforming presupposes slight optimizations, and refactoring is about changing the core architecture with AWS native features.
Azure to AWS migration
You can easily migrate from Azure to AWS with our help. Your IT infrastructure will take advantage of cost efficiency, better performance, greater reliability, and more security opportunities. The AWS Server Migration Service used for migration from Azure offers its capabilities free of charge. This already makes the cost of migration lower. Your business will pay only for the AWS resources the system is shifted to.
Migration from GCP to AWS
By moving from Google Cloud Platform to AWS, you will receive access to the greatest number of cloud features and services on the market. With our help, your new AWS infrastructure will be configured correctly and efficiently. Thus the performance, reliability, and security of your system will greatly improve. Due to AWS tools for migration from GCP, the process will be smooth and the budget will be optimized.
VMware to AWS migration
Migrate from VMware to AWS for better security, reliability, scalability, and budget opportunities for your business. You will reduce costs by paying only for the used resources and achieve simplified management and monitoring. It is possible to move workloads and virtual machines that are running on on-premises or hosted VMware environments.
Process of AWS migration
Discovery and consulting
During the first step of AWS cloud migration, our team evaluates your existing IT system as well as discovers your business objectives and technology needs. According to the results of our discovery, we then make an approximate action plan.
Roadmap
At this stage of the AWS migration process, we present a roadmap that includes building a brand new AWS infrastructure and migration itself. The roadmap outlines the budget range, approximate timeline, and a more detailed action plan.
AWS architecture implementation
At this step, we build an architecture for future AWS cloud migration. The infrastructure is designed based on best practices and our own experience. Our team uses mature tools and technologies and sets the system up according to all standards.
Quality control
When the new infrastructure is ready, we test it to make sure that it works as expected. With the help of this testing, we also look for any security and performance issues. If any are found, we quickly fix them.
AWS architecture testing
This is the stage of migration to AWS where we transfer the AWS infrastructure to our clients for review. They check everything out and provide feedback about what should be improved or changed to fit their objectives completely.
AWS architecture improvement
These are the improvements requested by the customer after testing everything on their side. This step of AWS migration doesn't take much time because clients usually ask for only minor changes. If any are required, we implement them very quickly.
Performance testing
This stage is all about control. With performance testing, we check how the system works in its usual conditions and its scalability perspective. From the results, we see whether improvements are required and make amendments to guarantee proper system performance.
Migration plan
Once the new AWS infrastructure is ready, our team makes a detailed migration plan with step-by-step actions and all the technologies that will be used. We define an AWS migration schedule and a timetable of migration events.
Rollback plan
IT infrastructure migration is a serious decision for business, so there should always be a plan B if something goes wrong. This is why we make a rollback plan that describes the actions that will undo the AWS cloud migration and restore the old system.
Migration
This step is the actual migration to AWS where we implement the migration plan. This is the most crucial part of the process. Our team does everything professionally and carefully. We monitor how it goes and keep an ear to the ground.
Performance observation and tuning
After AWS migration is done, the IT-Magic team observes the freshly migrated system’s performance to make sure that it works as expected. During this step, some infrastructure improvements can be implemented as part of final fine-tuning.

FAQ
How do you minimize downtime during AWS migration?
Minimizing downtime during an AWS migration requires careful planning and execution. This is exactly what we do while working on every project. Our migration process includes all stages required for thorough preparation.
In addition, we always schedule Amazon cloud migration for off-peak hours. This approach minimizes the risk of downtime due to reduced load and eliminates impact on users. Our team also monitors performance during the migration and is ready to troubleshoot any issue.
What is more, IT-Magic can implement AWS migrations using blue/green deployments. This strategy allows deploying applications in the new environment and then switching traffic to it once the migration is successful.
How do you handle data security during AWS migration?
Security is one of our priorities, so we treat it very seriously. To keep your data protected during AWS migrations, we implement access control and encryption. Our team also uses reliable AWS security tools and features and follows best practices.
Besides, IT-Magic knows how to make systems HIPAA or PCI DSS compliant. These standards have strict requirements and we can apply them to your data too.
We also prepare a comprehensive backup strategy for all data before migration to AWS cloud. This includes validating backups and testing restore procedures.
Why choose AWS over other cloud providers for my business?
AWS is the leading cloud platform that has a 32% share of the market among cloud service providers. It offers a broader range of services and features than its competitors.
The key strengths of AWS are flexibility, affordability, reliability, scalability, outstanding performance, and robust security measures.
Regardless of the industry, AWS is an excellent option for businesses of all sizes, promising 99.999% uptime for its services. This reliability ensures that organizations can count on their applications to operate efficiently without interruptions.
Is it better to outsource AWS cloud migration or to do it in-house?
Once you decide to migrate your IT infrastructure to AWS, you should analyze the current state of your business and the objectives you want to reach. Since one of the most crucial business needs is cost optimization, we recommend that you outsource migration to AWS.
If you don’t have an in-house team of DevOps engineers, hiring them for AWS migration is not a justified step. This will cost you more in perspective. In addition, it will take more time than hiring a professional provider of AWS migration services because a new employee usually has to go through onboarding and probation.
What is more important is that you might not need an internal team once you migrate to AWS because the new infrastructure won’t require many people to support it.
Outsourcing your Amazon cloud migration to a certified AWS partner is a good idea because people who do it daily have great professional experience. A team of AWS experts who have passed many AWS training sessions and certifications will surely do better than an average DevOps engineer.
How to choose a reliable vendor for AWS migration?
If you want to find a reliable vendor for cloud migration to AWS, pay attention to the following criteria: technical skills, years on the market, clients and portfolio, feedback from customers, communication style, and willingness to deliver value.
Of course, the first source of information is Google where you can review companies from your search results. However, you may start with recommendations if you know who to ask. This is a more reliable way but you will still check all recommended companies via Google.
One more efficient way is to use directory websites like Clutch which categorize all listed companies by services provided and give general information about them, including references from clients and portfolios.
How much do AWS migrations cost?
The cost of migration to AWS can vary based on the size and complexity of your system, your overall architecture, business requirements and objectives, etc.
Here is what affects the price of AWS migration:
- Migration approach chosen
- Storage costs
- The type of instances you choose
- Third-party tools and services used
- The cost of AWS migration services provided
If you would like to receive a detailed estimate tailored to your specific needs, contact IT-Magic. We will review your current system and requirements and provide a consultation on the best solution.
