Cloud Migration & Modernisation

Cloud migration and modernisation, with a team beside you the whole way

We assess what you have, agree the target for each workload with you, and run the move in phases.

Illustration of man working on cloud migration project

Knowing that the infrastructure needs to change is not enough.

Your servers are past their prime, the refresh keeps getting pushed, and you may be juggling more providers than anyone wants to. The move itself is where it gets hard, because it carries risk and your team may not have run such projects at this scale. Aptum takes that on, so you are never left holding a plan you cannot execute.

You might recognise some of this:

Servers past end of life

Your hardware is out of support or running operating systems that no longer get patched, and the exposure grows every month it stays there.

A refresh that keeps slipping

Your storage is at or near capacity and the refresh has been on the plan for two budget cycles, but something more urgent keeps taking the priority.

Knowledge that walked out

A key technical person left and took the understanding of your environment with them, and nobody left behind wants to touch what they built.

A data centre with no plan

Your data centre infrastructure is ageing and there is no agreed plan to replace it, so the decision keeps getting deferred to next year.

More providers than you can track

You have more suppliers to coordinate than your team can keep up with, and not one of them owns the whole picture.

A move nobody wants to own

You know the migration has to happen, but the risk of running it in-house is high enough that it keeps getting postponed.

Our Approach

How Aptum plans and runs the move

Every workload gets the target that suits it. We build the plan around that, and we stay with it from the first assessment through to running the result.

01

Assess what you have

Our Infrastructure Risk and Readiness, App and Platform Modernisation and Hybrid Cloud Assessments map your current state and the right target for each workload.

02

Agree where each workload goes

Some workloads stay where they are, some move to private cloud, some go to a hyperscaler. You see the reasoning behind each recommendation.

03

Move in defined phases

We migrate in stages to keep risk and downtime low, instead of one high-stakes cutover.

04

Stay on to operate it

Aptum's managed services run the new environment afterwards and cover the expertise gap if your team is stretched.

Where each workload ends up

Every target gets chosen on its merits. Some workloads belong on infrastructure Aptum runs, some belong with a hyperscaler, and some are fine where they are. What matters is that the choice gets made against what the workload needs and what your team wants to keep running. 

We work that through with you during the assessment, and we will tell you when a workload belongs somewhere Aptum does not host it.

Why Aptum

Why teams choose Aptum

A migration needs someone who can assess, execute and then live with the result.

Aptum's team plans and runs the move, then operate the environment afterwards, so the same people are accountable from the recommendation to the running.

Workloads go where they fit

We assess first and recommend second, workload by workload, and host or manage the result wherever it belongs.

We run the migration, not just the slide deck

Consulting firms hand over a report. Aptum plans the move, runs it, and stays on as your managed services partner.

We fill the expertise gap

Aptum's team learns your environment during the migration and runs it day-to-day afterwards. So when the person on your team who knew it best moves on, we still have it documented and staffed.

Fewer suppliers to manage

One partner covers the assessment, the migration and the management afterwards, so a single team stays accountable for the outcome at every stage.

FAQs

Common questions

What does a cloud migration or modernisation project involve?

Aptum assesses your current environment, agrees the target for each workload with you, plans the move in phases, runs the migration, and then manages the new environment on an ongoing basis. The assessment is the starting point that decides everything else.

Will there be downtime?

No. We migrate in defined phases to keep downtime to a minimum.

Do I have to move everything, or move it all to one place?

No. Each workload goes where it fits. Some stay where they are, some move to private cloud, some go to a hyperscaler, and Aptum can manage across all of it.

What happens after the migration?

Aptum stays on as your managed services partner and operates the environment, so you are not left with just a plan your team cannot run.

We lost our infrastructure expertise. Can you cover the gap?

Yes. Aptum's team learns your environment and operates it day to day, filling the gap left when a key person leaves.

Can you consolidate our multiple providers into one?

Yes. Replacing a stack of vendors with a single partner for assessment, migration and management is a core part of what we do.
