Cloud Migration · Data

Move your data to the cloud without losing a single record.

Manufacturing data \u2014 ERP databases, file shares, document archives, and transaction histories \u2014 is the most critical asset in a cloud migration. We migrate it with replication, validation gates, and integrity checks at every stage so nothing is lost, corrupted, or orphaned.

The Problem

Data Migration That Breaks What It\u2019s Supposed to Preserve

Database migration completed but application performance degraded because storage IOPS weren\u2019t matched
File shares migrated but permissions lost \u2014 users can\u2019t access their own documents
Historical transaction data truncated or archived incorrectly during migration
No validation that migrated data matches source \u2014 discrepancies discovered weeks later in production
What We Deliver

Service Scope

01
Database Migration

Migrate SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and AS/400 databases to cloud-native or cloud-hosted instances. Replication-based migration minimizes cutover downtime to minutes.

02
File System Migration

Migrate shared drives, document libraries, and file archives with full permission and metadata preservation. Tiered storage policies applied during migration \u2014 active files on fast storage, archives on cold storage.

03
Data Integrity Validation

Record counts, checksums, and sample comparisons at every migration stage. Data does not go live until source and target match within defined accuracy thresholds.

04
Replication & Sync

Continuous database replication from on-premise to cloud during the migration period. Cutover happens when replication is in sync \u2014 downtime measured in minutes, not hours.

05
Archive Strategy

Define what data migrates to production cloud, what goes to cloud archive (cold storage), and what gets decommissioned. Reduce storage costs while maintaining compliance retention requirements.

06
Encryption & Security

Data encrypted in transit and at rest. Secure transfer protocols, access controls during migration, and audit logging for compliance requirements.

How We Work

Engagement Process

01
Data Discovery

Inventory all databases, file shares, and data stores. Measure volumes, document access patterns, and identify compliance requirements for retention and residency.

02
Migration Architecture

Design the migration approach for each data source \u2014 replication method, transfer mechanism, target storage architecture, and validation procedures.

03
Test Migration

Execute test migrations and validate integrity. Measure transfer times, verify data accuracy, and confirm application functionality against migrated data.

04
Production Migration

Execute production migration with replication sync, cutover, and post-migration validation. Verify every data source before decommissioning on-premise copies.
