Help with a Cloud Migration

Is it transparent and straightforward?

Thornstein offers a realistic insight of the financial impact of a cloud migration and related software licensing. Whether you want to migrate to Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, IBM Cloud, Google or another cloud provider, Thornstein Groep can assist on this journey.

Whether you switch from on-premise to cloud computing or from the cloud of your current provider to the cloud of another provider: a cloud migration has a lot of work to do. Not only does a cloud migration have an impact at the time of migration itself, but also (and perhaps even: just) before and after the cloud migration there is a lot of work to be done to ensure that business operations are affected as little as possible by the cloud migration.

The benefits of a cloud migration:

  • Be accessible and available anywhere, anytime. Working from home, on the road or even on vacation in a secure working environment.
  • Security and continuity; a reduced risk of data leakage. A stolen PC, phone or laptop no longer causes data leaks within your organization.
  • Work more efficiently on common tasks and projects in a pleasant work environment.
  • No more maintenance and costs for your own servers. This provides a predictable cost and you rent the necessary server capacity at a lower price.

Cloud migration: preparatory phase

Good preparation is crucial for the end result of the migration. Good preparation requires first of all a thorough preliminary study of various options in the area of cloud providers. If you are already using a cloud solution, it is important to have a clear overview of the pros and cons of your current cloud provider, so that you know what you want to achieve by migrating to a new provider.

Once you have selected the right provider, negotiations begin. Once the contract is complete, the time has come to instruct the entire company accurately about the imminent change and to make a realistic planning.

Thornstein is at your service if you are looking for a partner who is familiar with the pain points of the preparatory phase and can assist you decisively and specialist in this. Our specialists will keep an overview, know the pitfalls and will anticipate them in order to manage the preparation of your cloud migration.

A seamless and trouble-free migration

Probably there are few people on the shop floor with experience of a cloud migration. Your staff members who have experience with this, have probably experienced the migration more from the sidelines. This is what makes the implementation of a migration difficult: nobody knows exactly what to expect and what the possible complications are, making anticipation difficult.

A Thornstein specialist has already managed numerous cloud migrations from and to different cloud providers. So no technical or other side effects come as a surprise to him.
