Infrastructure Migration Services
Migration of software infrastructures becomes increasingly relevant and demand across the IT sector for a number of business- and operations-focused purposes. Thus, startups seeking more rapid and extensive scaling conditions opt for migrating to cloud servers while projects that were cloud-powered from the get-go are often migrated to proprietary server environments with the purpose of saving infrastructure costs (not mentioning migrating to more optimal, individually fitting hostings when necessary).
Tools and Technologies We Use
As a serious modern cloud migration company for business, we constantly implement modern cloud migration methods and use only the most effective and proven tools and technologies, as well as constantly monitor new ones and keep our eyes on the ball.

Our Services
Timely migration to cloud capacities and vice versa allows companies, entrepreneurs, and startups to avoid many unnecessary expenses, efforts, and risk factors while thoroughly adjusting and optimizing software infrastructures for the ultimate performance. Various technological needs and requirements may also have to be tackled with full-on migration, which we cover with the following project initiatives.
Planning out a migration project
To most properly kick off a new migration project based on all the underlying specifics, goals, and purposes, we need to thoroughly plan out every step of the way. This includes gathering requirements and settling tech specifications, outlining milestones and prioritizing objectives, scheduling workflows, etc. In terms of migration, we also need to pick the migration format and fitting tools.
Preparing infrastructure and services
Continuing with preliminary measures, we also need to prepare an upgraded infrastructure and all its underlying services for operation in a new environment. This involves tweaking numerous tech aspects to set them in line and make everything perfectly compatible with the target hosting system.
Adjusting deployment scenarios and automations
Yet another essential stage of building a sturdy infrastructure migration foundation is working out an optimal software deployment scenario along with the necessary automation scripts that will help smooth out and accelerate the process. At this point, we go through every other system aspect small and large in order to elaborate on the specific migration principles.
Migrating databases and media
It all comes down to the complete migration of all data held in respective databases along with all media assets. This is a responsible, specialized process that can be carried out in a variety of formats and requires a very attentive, subsequent approach. Only properly qualified specialists can guarantee no data losses in the process and ultimately error-free results.
Infrastructure Migration Stages
IT Outpost has developed a high-quality and highly effective roadmap or strategy for the elaboration of your infrastructure migration. This plan includes all vital performance improvement indicators.
Assessment of the current state
The professionals of our company will analyze your needs, determine your current state of configurations and the actual costs of maintaining the infrastructure. We find gaps in your business processes and determine the vector of development.
Planning
We determine the amount of your monthly costs for using the cloud, and define the use case. We designate the type of transition to the cloud and the type of the cloud itself that you want to use. We evaluate the compatibility of annexes, the way data is synchronized.
Migration
Next comes the laborious process of infrastructure migration. Our team is purchasing storage servers. All data and the application are migrated, data is tested for correct operation and its security is monitored.
Optimization
After a successful migration, IT Outpost staff move further in the development direction and evaluate new options to improve performance. Analysts review information about new updates and innovations and make recommendations for implementing them into your infrastructure.
Support
Reliable IT Outpost support service constantly monitors your changes, answers your questions on request. Also provides advice on development according to your preferences. We stay in touch all the time, so your processes will run uninterruptedly.
Infrastructure Migration Benefits
Safety
With a smart migration to cloud services, the safety of your infrastructure increases many times over than in conventional network structures. Both platforms are made up of components that are configured and maintained based on shared responsibility standards. Your data is stored centrally, which provides more reliable protection.
Cost optimization
When you move to the cloud, you only pay for what you use and you don’t run high-paying data centers. Operational costs are also reduced and infrastructure performance is improved and data is processed faster.
Scalability
In the cloud, your business has more opportunities to grow and expand at scale. You can completely and radically change your infrastructure and work processes to adapt to today’s rapidly changing development trends.
Association
After infrastructure migration, your systems and structures can be connected in any way and improve the performance of all working services. Now you do not need to update the infrastructure, just move annexes to the cloud at the end of the hardware update cycle. Thus saving time and resources.

FAQ
How do I migrate from infrastructure to the cloud?
First, we evaluate the project, its infrastructure, and the relevance of applications for the transition. Then we create a strategy and plan the transition process. The next step is to set up deployment scripts and automation tools. And finally, data migration to the cloud.
What is infrastructure migration?
Cloud migration is the movement of data, settings, services, operating systems, and applications from an organization’s local site to a virtual data center of a public cloud provider.
How long does infrastructure migration take?
The exact timing depends on the scale of the particular project. In any case, we guarantee that your infrastructure will be transferred to the cloud as quickly as possible.
