Explore a migration where Vix Technology partnered with AWS ProServe and Stromasys, an AWS Migration and Modernization Competency Partner, to successfully migrating over 100 applications, including both x86 and SUN SPARC Solaris mission-critical workloads within nine months before a data center contract renewal with near-zero customer impact. Vix’s key business drivers for migration were to move to a more secure, cost effective, and resilient environment.

We are excited to highlight 77 AWS Partners that received new designations in June for our global AWS Competency, AWS Managed Service Provider (MSP), AWS Service Delivery, and AWS Service Ready programs. These designations span workload, solution, and industry, and help AWS customers identify top AWS Partners that can deliver on core business objectives. AWS Partners are focused on your success, helping customers take full advantage of the business benefits AWS has to offer.

To enhance organizational, operational, and technical capabilities, many businesses are migrating their applications to AWS. This post walks through the lift and shift migration of a supply chain customer’s mission-critical legacy applications to emulated SPARCs on AWS utilizing Charon-SSP, the legacy SPARC emulator from Stromasys, and common Solaris-native tools. We’ll describe the customer’s context, Stromasys technical solution, and explore a successful lift and shift of a Solaris application, as-is, to AWS.

Numerous legacy workloads, still hosted on premises, are mission-critical and hardly interruptible. Their migration to AWS must happen quasi-transparently for their users. This post details how the combination of AWS Outposts and CloudEndure can be used to solve for this issue. We demonstrate this by migrating a Solaris machine making use of the Charon SSP emulator by Stromasys, running on standard Amazon EC2 instances and using CloudEndure.
