DigitalOcean Migration in Newport

Migrating Newport workloads to DigitalOcean, where the saving comes from giving up managed services. A hyperscaler estate leaning on managed queues, serverless functions and proprietary databases is depending on a great deal you would now run yourself — so the comparison is not price per server but price against what you take on.

Why this comes up

The problem

The current estate uses four managed services with no direct equivalent on the destination platform.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Managed service dependencies inventoried and given a destination each
  • Databases assessed for whether managed offerings suffice or you will run your own
  • Operational capability confirmed, since more of the stack becomes yours
  • Egress charges from the current provider calculated, as leaving is billed by volume
  • Networking and access rebuilt rather than translated from the previous provider
  • The saving calculated against the additional operational time it requires

DigitalOcean Migration in Newport — common questions

Is it genuinely cheaper?
Per unit of compute, usually yes and sometimes substantially. Whether it is cheaper overall depends on how much managed service you were using, because the work those were doing does not disappear — it moves to your team and shows up as time rather than invoice.
What about managed databases?
They exist and cover common cases well. What is thinner is the range — specialised managed offerings available elsewhere may have no counterpart, so a workload depending on one needs either a self-managed equivalent or a rethink.
Who is this move right for?
Teams running fairly conventional workloads who are comfortable operating Linux and want predictable pricing. Teams that chose a hyperscaler specifically for its managed services are usually giving up the thing they were paying for.
How should the comparison be made?
With the operational time included. An honest figure counts hosting, the engineering hours now spent on things a managed service handled, and the risk of doing them less well — which sometimes still favours the move and occasionally does not.
Do you work with businesses across Newport?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Wales, including Newport and the surrounding Newport area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Newport businesses do you usually work with?
Precision manufacturing quality systems, and cross-border operations for businesses trading into England. Beyond that we work across Semiconductors, Manufacturing, Logistics, Public Sector and Financial Services.
Do you cover the areas around Newport?
Yes — we work throughout Wales, including Cardiff, Bristol, Swansea. Newport is an urban area of roughly 160,000+, and we take on work across the wider Newport region rather than the city boundary alone.
