Business Compass - AWS Lightsail Migration & Hosting Services

Business Compass LLC is an AWS Advanced Consulting Partner and AWS Well-Architected Framework Partner with 50+ AWS certifications across Solution Architect Professional, Developer Professional, Network Specialty, and more. We have experience across financial services, media, healthcare, power, and public sector industries, delivering Lightsail migrations and hosting engagements for organizations of all sizes.

This engagement is designed for SMBs, digital agencies, and growing teams that lack dedicated DevOps resources and want to move from shared hosting, traditional VPS, or on-premises cPanel environments to AWS Lightsail. Whether you run a single WordPress site or manage dozens of client sites on WHM/cPanel, we handle the heavy lifting so you can focus on your business.

• Website Migration to Lightsail - Move your sites from shared hosting or VPS to Lightsail with minimal downtime, gaining improved reliability and predictable performance.
• Migration from Lightsail to EC2 and RDS - Scale beyond Lightsail when your traffic demands it, with a seamless transition to EC2 and RDS architectures.
• CDN Integration (CloudFront) - Accelerate global page loads and reduce bandwidth costs by adding CloudFront CDN to your Lightsail-hosted sites.
• SSL Certificate Setup (ACM) - Secure your sites with free, auto-renewing AWS Certificate Manager SSL, improving SEO and visitor trust.
• CMS Launches (WordPress, Joomla, Drupal) - Get production-ready CMS sites launched on Lightsail with optimized configurations.
• E-Commerce Deployments (Magento) - Launch Magento-based storefronts on Lightsail with performance tuning for product catalogs and checkout flows.
• WHM/cPanel and Plesk Setup - Deploy hosting control panels on Lightsail and migrate existing client sites into them.
• Performance Troubleshooting - Diagnose and resolve slow page loads, high CPU usage, and database bottlenecks to restore site speed.

A digital marketing agency managing 15 client WordPress sites on a shared hosting provider experienced frequent downtime and slow page loads. Business Compass migrated all 15 sites to Lightsail instances with CloudFront CDN and ACM SSL, consolidated management under a single cPanel deployment, and delivered the project with documentation and a post-migration validation checklist.
