Move hosted servers and business applications into AWS virtual machines.
Infrastructure Shift helps organizations migrate servers and applications into Amazon EC2 with secure networking, monitoring, backup, disaster recovery and cost optimization.
AWS as a private cloud replacement
AWS EC2 can replace hosted servers, legacy private cloud infrastructure and aging on-premises virtual machines while giving businesses control over instance sizing, storage, backups and security.
Migration approach
The migration process evaluates server dependencies, application requirements, database needs, firewall rules, DNS, VPN connectivity, identity and recovery objectives.
What the migration includes
- Server inventory and dependency mapping
- AWS landing zone and VPC design
- EC2 sizing, storage and backup planning
- VPN, firewall and DNS migration support
- CloudWatch monitoring and security baselines
- Cutover, validation and documentation
Cost-aware architecture
Right-sizing, reserved capacity planning, storage tiers and monitoring help avoid replacing one expensive platform with another expensive cloud footprint.
| Current Challenge | Modern Replacement |
|---|---|
| High annual platform costs | Right-sized Azure, AWS or hybrid infrastructure |
| Vendor lock-in | Infrastructure ownership, documented access and portable backups |
| Aging remote desktop model | Azure Virtual Desktop, Windows 365, AWS WorkSpaces or secure VM access |
| Unclear disaster recovery | Documented backup, recovery and continuity design |
