Unlock the value of AWS sooner with this upfront evaluation.

To realize the full benefits of the cloud you need to focus on cloud adoption, not just migration. This goes further than the IT team; people across the entire business have a part to play. Our assessment engages all relevant stakeholders to create a clear picture of what is needed to ensure the transition to the cloud delivers on its promises.

A well-orchestrated migration enables you to unlock the advantages of the AWS cloud platform more quickly.

Achieving this demands a full understanding of organisational cloud readiness and detailed financial planning. It is best to start early, before the migration gets underway, as per AWS' Migration Acceleration Program.

As an AWS Partner with Cloud Migration and DevOps Competency status, DevOpsGroup can handle this on your behalf. Our AWS Cloud Migration Assessment validates the rationale for change with a directional business case that defines budgetary requirements for a seamless transition. We also determine organisational readiness for the cloud through targeted discovery sessions.

What does an AWS Cloud Migration Assessment involve?

Our experienced AWS consultants work closely with your team to establish priorities, ascertain your current position, then formulate recommended next steps. You will receive a detailed migration readiness report prepared in alignment with AWS' Cloud Adoption Framework and a directional business case to guide budget and resource allocation.
