Versent's AI-assisted migration assessment that delivers a business case, treatment plan and sequenced roadmap for organisations moving to AWS.
Overview
Organisations under pressure from VMware renewals, data centre exit deadlines, ageing infrastructure, or modernisation priorities need a clear, evidence-based path to AWS. Migration Pathfinder is Versent's AI-assisted assessment service that helps decision makers understand which workloads to migrate, modernise, remediate, retire, or optimise - and why.
The Challenge
Planning a large-scale migration to AWS involves complexity across multiple dimensions: technical dependencies, licensing implications, operational readiness, cost modelling, and stakeholder alignment. Without a structured, evidence-based approach, organisations risk stalled initiatives, misallocated budgets, and migration programs that never move beyond planning.
Three Decision-Ready Deliverables
The assessment turns discovery inputs into three practical outputs:
-
Defensible Business Case - A data-backed justification for your migration investment, built to secure executive and board-level approval. Each recommendation is supported by evidence so leaders can align stakeholders and prioritise spend with confidence.
-
Prioritised Treatment Plan - A workload-by-workload analysis that categorises your estate into clear treatment paths: migrate, modernise, remediate, retire, or optimise. This plan accounts for technical complexity, business criticality, and interdependencies.
-
Sequenced Migration Roadmap - A phased execution plan that defines the order and grouping of workload movements, helping your team progress from planning into delivery with minimal disruption.
Holistic, Integrated Approach
Migration Pathfinder takes a holistic view by considering migration strategy, application modernisation, cloud operations, FinOps, and licensing together. Rather than treating these as separate workstreams, Versent's team evaluates the full picture - opportunity, complexity, cost, risk, and value - so you receive a unified strategy rather than fragmented recommendations.
The AI-assisted methodology accelerates analysis across your environment, enabling the team to surface patterns, dependencies, and optimisation opportunities that manual approaches often miss.
Who This Is For
Migration Pathfinder is designed for organisations that need to act on one or more of these drivers:
- VMware license renewals creating urgency to evaluate alternative infrastructure strategies on AWS
- Data centre exit deadlines requiring a structured, time-bound migration plan
- Ageing infrastructure driving increased operational risk and maintenance costs
- Digital transformation and cloud adoption initiatives that demand a prioritised, defensible roadmap
- Business continuity planning that requires reduced dependency on on-premises infrastructure
Engagement Process and Timeline
Engagement duration is agreed during scoping, based on portfolio size, assessment depth, and data readiness. An initial directional assessment targets completion within 48 hours of receiving usable baseline inventory.
Customers receive an assessment pack and executive playback covering the business case, workload treatment recommendations, and recommended next steps. Detailed assessments also include migration sequencing and effort estimates. Deliverable scope and formats are agreed at engagement commencement.
Get Started
The result is a simpler, more confident AWS migration strategy - one that helps your organisation reduce ambiguity, make informed decisions, and progress toward execution with clarity. Instead of debating where to start, your team moves forward with a sequenced plan backed by evidence.
If your organisation is facing a migration decision and needs a structured path forward, request a Migration Pathfinder briefing through AWS Marketplace to begin the conversation with Versent's team.
Highlights
- AI-assisted assessment covering five integrated domains - Migration Pathfinder evaluates your environment across migration, application modernisation, cloud operations, FinOps, and licensing in a single engagement. By combining these areas rather than addressing them in isolation, the assessment identifies dependencies and trade-offs that siloed approaches miss, giving decision makers a unified view of cost, risk, and value across their entire portfolio.
- Three decision-ready deliverables - The engagement produces a defensible migration business case, a prioritised treatment plan with workload-level recommendations, and a sequenced migration roadmap. These artifacts are designed to move directly into stakeholder review and procurement processes, connecting technical findings to business priorities so leadership teams can approve and fund the next phase.
- Holistic scope from data centre exit to cloud operations - Migration Pathfinder goes beyond simple lift-and-shift planning. The assessment addresses VMware migration paths, application modernisation options, cloud operational readiness, FinOps cost optimisation, and licensing implications so organisations can plan their full cloud journey rather than solving one problem at a time.
