But this journey requires investment in the Cost of Change: […]
Cloud Engineer’s Log, Stardate 2031: Life after on call
Most cloud engineers today still spend time chasing pages, triaging incidents, and scaling infrastructure manually. That is about to change. AI agents are beginning to take over this operational burden. Engineers who understand this shift early will be the ones who define how it unfolds. Written as a fictional log entry from 2031, this blog […]
Automate large scale network migration using AWS Transform Network Migration APIs
AWS Transform for VMware simplifies how organizations migrate VMware workloads to AWS by providing an AI-driven, agentic experience that automates the entire migration journey, from initial discovery and assessment, through migration planning and wave execution, to the actual migration of virtual machines to AWS. It addresses one of the critical migration challenges: translating on-premises network […]

Beyond the Monolith: Structured Strategies for Database Modernization
Monolithic databases have long been a cornerstone of enterprise applications, but as organizations scale and adopt cloud-native architectures, these databases increasingly become bottlenecks. A structured approach to modernizing these monolithic databases addresses increased cost, scalability constraints, architectural rigidity, and performance degradation that prevent independent deployment and rapid innovation. Organizations embarking on cloud migration often discover […]
Tackling large mainframe portfolio with Agentic AI and AWS Transform
Many enterprises have used the mainframe as a platform of choice for their core business processing over decades. The simplicity and speed of initial development in monolithic architecture have consequently resulted in the creation of large (10M+ LOC) and exceptionally large (100M+ LOC) mono-repos and complex codebases. When customers are ready to modernize these applications, […]
