AWS to Azure Migration · Salford
AWS to Azure Migration in Salford
Moving Salford workloads from AWS to Azure, where the virtual machines are the easy part. Everything built on a proprietary managed service — the queue, the document store, the serverless functions — has an Azure counterpart that behaves differently, and reconciling those differences is where the effort genuinely sits.
Why this comes up
The problem
The estate depends on several AWS-specific managed services with no like-for-like Azure equivalent.
What you get
What we deliver
- Managed service dependencies inventoried before any timeline is committed
- Behavioural differences identified, since equivalents are rarely identical
- Data transfer costs calculated, as moving data out of AWS is charged
- Application code changed where service semantics genuinely differ
- Networking and connectivity rebuilt rather than translated directly
- A rollback position maintained until the new estate is genuinely proven

AWS to Azure Migration in Salford — common questions
- Are managed services interchangeable?
- They correspond, but they do not match. Message ordering, consistency guarantees, limits and failure behaviour all differ between counterparts, and code written against one set of assumptions can fail subtly against the other rather than breaking outright.
- What does moving the data cost?
- More than most estimates allow. Transferring data out of AWS is charged by volume, so a large estate carries a one-off cost that deserves calculating before the decision rather than appearing on an invoice halfway through.
- Should we move everything at once?
- Rarely. Migrating in stages with both estates connected is more work in the short term and considerably safer, because it allows each workload to be proven in place rather than discovering a behavioural difference with everything already committed.
- Is this usually worth doing?
- It depends on why. Consolidating onto an existing Microsoft agreement, gaining meaningful commercial terms or meeting a customer requirement can justify it, whereas a move driven by general preference tends to cost more than expected and deliver less. The reason should be specific enough to test afterwards — if nobody can state what will be measurably better once the estate has moved, that is usually a sign the decision has not been made on its merits.
- Do you work with businesses across Greater Manchester?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North West, including Salford and the surrounding Greater Manchester area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Salford businesses do you usually work with?
- Production and media workflow tools, and design-led builds for a market with unusually high visual standards. Beyond that we work across Media & Broadcasting, Digital & Creative, Higher Education, Logistics and Construction.
- Do you cover the areas around Salford?
- Yes — we work throughout North West, including Manchester, Liverpool, Preston. Salford is an urban area of roughly 270,000+, and we take on work across the wider Greater Manchester region rather than the city boundary alone.
