AWS to Google Cloud Migration in Plymouth
Moving Plymouth workloads from AWS to Google Cloud, where the account structure has to be rethought rather than copied. AWS organises isolation through accounts and Google through projects, and permissions attach differently in each — so the security model is redesigned rather than translated, and getting it wrong is how estates end up over-permissioned.
Why this comes up
The problem
AWS roles and policies were reproduced as closely as possible, and the result grants far more than intended.
What you get
What we deliver
- Project structure designed against how teams and environments are separated
- Permissions rebuilt from requirements rather than transcribed from AWS policies
- Service accounts used deliberately, with their keys managed rather than shared
- Managed service differences assessed for each dependency in the estate
- Data transfer volumes and costs established before the move begins
- Networking rebuilt, since the two providers structure connectivity differently

AWS to Google Cloud Migration in Plymouth — common questions
- Why can permissions not be copied?
- Because the models differ at the root. AWS attaches policies to users and roles within accounts, while Google grants roles on resources within a project hierarchy that inherits — so a literal translation either over-grants or produces a set nobody can reason about.
- How should projects be organised?
- Around the boundaries you actually need. Projects are the isolation unit, so separating environments and teams into their own with inherited organisation policies is what makes access manageable — deciding this after workloads land is considerably harder.
- What about service account keys?
- They should be avoided where possible. Long-lived keys are the most common source of credential exposure, and workload identity mechanisms let services authenticate without them — which is worth adopting during the migration rather than retrofitting.
- How different are the equivalent services?
- Comparable in purpose and different in detail. Storage, queuing and managed databases all have counterparts with their own limits, consistency behaviour and pricing shape, so each dependency needs assessing individually rather than assumed to be a drop-in replacement.
- Do you work with businesses across Devon?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South West, including Plymouth and the surrounding Devon area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Plymouth businesses do you usually work with?
- Marine and defence supply chain systems where security accreditation is a precondition rather than a differentiator. Beyond that we work across Marine & Defence, Manufacturing, Healthcare, Higher Education and Tourism.
- Do you cover the areas around Plymouth?
- Yes — we work throughout South West, including Exeter, Truro, Bristol. Plymouth is an urban area of roughly 260,000+, and we take on work across the wider Devon region rather than the city boundary alone.
