A clear cloud migration strategy will help you to implement your cloud hosting and services, ensuring your they are built for orchestration, automation and cost optimisation. Brightsolid's Cloud Migration Services will ensure that you create a successful migration plan, defining how you'll migrate from where you are today to your target end state, whether private cloud or public cloud models (AWS, Azure, Google etc) and ensuring the services that you'll consume (whether IaaS, PaaS or SaaS) are best suited to fulfil your business objectives. This pragmatic and proven solution reduces your transition risk and cost by ensuring you are supported by experienced expert advice as well as reducing your technical debt through simplification and improving your security posture through alignment with industry best practice solutions. Brightsolid is uniquely able to support you in executing your rehosting, replatforming, repurchasing, refactoring/rearchitecting, retiring and retaining plans, regardless of the target destination due to our coverage of the spectrum of cloud services, so whether you are undertaking physical-to-physical, physical-to-virtual or virtual-to-virtual migrations we have the right tools, experience and testing plans to ensure your migrations are secure, efficient and minimally disruptive.

How the support service works
Brightsolid's Cloud Migration service has been developed by our expert cloud engineers, who have migrated and managed cloud services to Public Sector Organisations for 25 years across all Hybrid Cloud solutions, whether on-datacentre-premises/dedicated equipment, private or public cloud services . We weren't born in the cloud, we grew up there, and know the most effective ways migrating and managing your service for security and performance. So when you migrate with us we'll ensure your hosted environments, whether hosted with us or other providers such as AWS and Azure are not only designed for performance and availability but have the controls that you need to comply with best practice standards such as ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials, that have been tested thoroughly as part of your migration. We'll ensure you have meaningful monitoring and actionable alerts for the hosting solution you are using, as your target services become BAU. If you are using our Cloud Foundations, Hybrid Storage or Virtual Machine Managed services you'll be supported by our experienced and expert teams, ensuring ITIL aligned service management, incident management and continual improvement processes to complement your hybrid cloud technical environment.

AWS, Azure, Google or Brightsolid) charges for the services.
