Beyond The Lift & Shift

We modernize organizations, not just migrate infrastructure. We leverage AWS funding to replatform your workloads for true cloud-native performance, rather than simply building another data center in the cloud.

A Proven Blueprint for Funded Organisational Transformation

Deep analysis

AWS CAF 3.0 Assessment

Empowering Your People: Cloud transformation fails when teams are left behind. We assess your internal capabilities and organizational culture, identifying skill gaps and creating targeted upskilling roadmaps to ensure your engineering and leadership teams are completely fit for the cloud.
Modernising Your Platform & Tooling: We look past the standard “lift and shift.” We evaluate your existing application portfolio and technical debt to design a well-architected AWS platform,replacing outdated legacy tooling with agile, managed, and cloud-native services.
Evolving Legacy Processes: Outdated IT processes will severely throttle your cloud velocity. We audit your existing governance, security, and deployment pipelines, replacing rigid, manual bottlenecks with automated, data-driven techniques engineered for rapid scale.

Funded Migrations

De-Risk Your Evolution with AWS MAP Funding

With the financial power of the Migration Acceleration Program (MAP), we deliver a complete, end-to-end transformation. We assess your organizational maturity, upgrade your legacy workflows, and unlock exclusive partner funding to completely de-risk your evolution to a cloud-native operating model.

The 7 R’s Framework

Strategic Workload Migrations

A successful cloud transformation is never a one-size-fits-all maneuver. We utilize the AWS 7 R’s framework (Retire, Retain, Relocate, Rehost, Repurchase, Replatform, Refactor) to rigorously analyze your entire application portfolio. While our engineering philosophy is fundamentally modernisation-first, we pragmatically define the exact right path for each individual server and application to maximize your ROI and minimize disruption.


Advanced AWS Engineering Capabilities

Deploy elite technical firepower for your most complex cloud challenges. We architect, build, and optimize specialized AWS environments.

Beyond The Lift & Shift

As an elite partner holding the exclusive AWS Migration and Modernisation Competency, we unlock substantial AWS funding to completely de-risk your journey to the cloud. We do not believe in simply moving legacy problems into a new environment. Instead, we champion a modernisation-first approach, leveraging AWS capital to replatform and optimize your architecture for true cloud-native performance.

  • Unlock AWS MAP Funding: Through the AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP), we secure exclusive partner capital to heavily offset the costs of your assessment, mobilization, and final migration phases.
  • Modernisation-First Strategy: Stop paying to host technical debt. Rather than a basic “lift and shift” (rehost), we prioritize replatforming your applications—upgrading databases, containerizing workloads, and adopting managed services to drastically improve agility.
  • Well-Architected Outcomes: We use AWS funding to build it right the first time. Every migration is engineered to strict AWS Well-Architected Framework standards, ensuring your new environment is highly secure, resilient, and financially optimized from day one.

Migrate with absolute confidence, modernize with purpose, and let AWS fund your transformation.

Cloud Economics Assessment (AWS OLA)

Stop burning expensive engineering hours on routine infrastructure maDon’t carry expensive legacy licensing and over-provisioned infrastructure into your new cloud environment. Through the fully funded AWS Optimization and Licensing Assessment (OLA), we analyze your current on-premises or multi-cloud footprints to expose massive cost-saving opportunities before you migrate. We ensure you only provision what you actually need, stripping away the financial bloat of traditional enterprise licensing.

  • Data-Driven Right-Sizing: Legacy environments are notoriously over-provisioned. We use AWS OLA tooling to analyze your actual resource consumption over time, mapping your workloads to the most cost-effective AWS instances based on true performance metrics rather than on-premises guesswork.
  • Slash Microsoft & Oracle Costs: Third-party software licensing is often the most expensive component of a migration. We deeply evaluate your existing entitlements to model the most efficient deployment strategy, whether that means maximizing Bring Your Own License (BYOL), transitioning to optimized license-included instances, or escaping punitive licensing entirely by modernizing to open-source alternatives.
  • Zero-Guesswork TCO: Build your cloud business case on hard data, not estimates. The OLA delivers a highly accurate Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) projection, giving your leadership team absolute financial clarity and a proven ROI model before committing a single pound to the migration.

Stop overpaying for idle resources and restrictive software licenses.

AWS Transform (ATX)

Stop losing thousands of engineering hours to manual code refactoring and technical debt. As an elite modernization partner, we leverage AWS Transform (ATX)—AWS’s cutting-edge agentic AI service—to autonomously analyze, refactor, and modernize your legacy applications at scale. Whether you are breaking down monolithic mainframes, escaping expensive .NET Windows licensing, or upgrading outdated Java/Node.js frameworks, we use ATX to execute complex architectural transformations up to 5x faster than manual engineering.

  • AI-Driven Code Refactoring: We deploy specialized AI agents that securely scan your codebase, map complex database dependencies, and automatically generate modernized, cloud-native code. This eliminates the manual grunt work of rewriting legacy software and ensures strict adherence to AWS best practices.
  • Accelerated Modernisation Timelines: What traditionally takes years, we deliver in months. By running AI-powered transformation agents in parallel across hundreds of repositories, we drastically compress your migration timeline and significantly reduce the consulting costs typically associated with large-scale refactoring.
  • Continuous Modernisation (CI/CD/CM): We don’t just modernize your code once; we keep it modern. We integrate AWS Transform directly into your CI/CD pipelines, allowing autonomous agents to continuously identify and remediate technical debt, framework vulnerabilities, and outdated dependencies on every single commit.

Free your developers from legacy maintenance and let enterprise-grade AI refactor your architecture for the modern cloud.

Document DB & No Sql DB Migrations

Stop managing database infrastructure and start scaling. As a specialized AWS partner for NoSQL transformations, we excel at migrating mission-critical workloads from legacy MongoDB to Amazon DocumentDB. Having recently delivered six complex, large-scale database migrations, our engineering team ensures a flawless transition with zero data loss and absolute precision.

  • Immediate 30% Cost Reduction: Break free from restrictive MongoDB licensing and high operational overhead. By seamlessly replatforming to Amazon DocumentDB, we help organizations reduce their NoSQL database spend by up to 30% while gaining a fully managed foundation natively integrated with the broader AWS ecosystem.
  • Zero-Downtime Data Cutover: Protect your live applications. Leveraging the AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) and continuous data replication, we execute highly complex database transitions with near-zero downtime, ensuring your end-users experience absolutely no disruption.
  • Post-Migration Tuning & Optimization: We don’t just move your data; we make it faster. Our database engineers deeply optimize your new DocumentDB architecture—fine-tuning indexes, right-sizing compute clusters, and configuring multi-AZ deployments for peak performance and strict financial efficiency.

Modernize your data tier with the proven experts in AWS NoSQL migrations.
