Cloud Migration · Aberdeen

Cloud Migration in Aberdeen

Moving a Aberdeen business's servers, applications and data into the cloud without a weekend that goes wrong. Workloads move in a deliberate order — least risky first — with the old environment kept intact until each one is proven in its new home.

Why this comes up

The problem

Lift-and-shift migrations move the problems along with the workload, and the bill arrives sized for hardware assumptions that no longer apply. Rushed cutovers turn a planned move into an unplanned outage.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Dependency mapping, so a moved application does not lose something it quietly relied on
  • Migration order set by risk, starting where failure would cost least
  • Right-sizing during the move rather than replicating over-provisioned hardware
  • Rehearsed cutover with a timed rollback that stays available until sign-off
  • The old environment retained for an agreed period after each move
  • Post-migration cost review, because the first month's bill is never the steady state

Cloud Migration in Aberdeen — common questions

How much downtime should we expect?
Depends on the workload. Stateless applications can move with none. Databases need either a maintenance window or a replication approach that keeps both in step until a switch measured in seconds. The rehearsal establishes which, and gives you a real number rather than a hopeful one.
Should we lift and shift, or rebuild?
Lift and shift is faster and gets you off ageing hardware quickly, but carries the inefficiencies across and often costs more monthly. Rebuilding costs more up front and less to run. Most migrations sensibly mix the two by workload rather than picking one doctrine.
What if something does not work afterwards?
The source environment stays available until you sign off, so rollback is a decision rather than a rescue. Migrations without that fallback are where the horror stories come from.
Will our bill be predictable?
After a settling period, yes — but the first month rarely reflects the steady state, and budgets plus alerts are set up during the move rather than after the first surprise invoice.
Do you work with businesses across Aberdeenshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Scotland, including Aberdeen and the surrounding Aberdeenshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Aberdeen businesses do you usually work with?
Energy supply chain systems with rigorous documentation, and asset and compliance tracking for offshore operations. Beyond that we work across Oil & Gas, Renewable Energy, Marine, Higher Education and Food & Fishing.
Do you cover the areas around Aberdeen?
Yes — we work throughout Scotland, including Dundee, Inverness, Edinburgh. Aberdeen is an urban area of roughly 200,000+, and we take on work across the wider Aberdeenshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
