Why Choose AWS for Your Startup?
Migrating to Amazon Web Services (AWS) can be a game-changer, providing the infrastructure and tools
necessary to scale your business quickly and cost-effectively.
Scalability on Demand
When you have fluctuating demands, AWS’s scalable infrastructure adapts to your needs in real-time, ensuring your infrastructure is always aligned with your business requirements.
Cost Officiency
AWS’s pay-as-you-go pricing model ensures that you only pay for the resources you use. This approach allows you to reinvest savings into critical areas of your business.
Security
AWS offers industry-leading security measures, ensuring that your data and applications are protected. You can focus on your core business while AWS takes care of security.
Cloudvisor | #1 AWS Partner for Migration Services
Moving to AWS means shifting apps, data, and systems into Amazon’s cloud with a clear plan, safe cutover, and steady care after launch. We choose tools based on your stack and risk tolerance, run pilots, sync data, switch during quiet hours, and keep bills under control.
Migration Options We Offer
AWS Application Migration Service (MGN):
Used for “lift-and-shift” of Windows and Linux servers. We install lightweight agents, replicate disks continuously, test in AWS without stopping production, then cut over when ready. It’s fast, keeps changes in sync, and works well for tight timelines with minimal refactoring.
AWS Database Migration Service (DMS):
Moves databases to AWS with near-zero downtime using change data capture. Works for homogeneous migrations (e.g., MySQL to Aurora) or heterogeneous (e.g., Oracle to PostgreSQL) with the Schema Conversion Tool. We run test loads, validate row counts, and schedule final cutovers during low-traffic windows.
AWS Mainframe Modernization (Mainframe Migration):
For COBOL/PL/I workloads and VSAM/DB2 data. We assess code and data, choose between replatforming (managed runtime) or refactoring to modern services, and build a safe path off the mainframe. The focus is stability, predictable performance, and a stepwise move that business owners can trust.
AWS DataSync:
High-speed, secure file transfer to S3, EFS, or FSx. Ideal for large NAS to cloud moves and ongoing sync jobs. We set filters, schedule windows, and track throughput so cutovers are clean. Great when you need repeated syncs before the final switch.
AWS Snowcone / Snowball / Snowmobile:
Physical devices for petabyte-scale or bandwidth-limited transfers. We stage data to the device on-site, ship to AWS, and verify ingestion. This avoids long online transfer times and keeps projects on schedule when links are slow, costly, or unreliable.

Migration to AWS covers moving your apps, databases, files, and supporting services from on-prem, hosting providers, or another cloud into Amazon Web Services. It spans discovery, right-sizing resources, landing zone setup, networking, identity, data transfer, app cutover, and post-move tuning. Cloudvisor handles the plan, the hands-on work, and the day-two help so your team isn’t stuck juggling tools and guesswork.
Teams choose AWS for lower overhead, elastic capacity, global reach, and deep service choice (from managed databases to containers and serverless). You pay for what you use, right-size as you grow, and gain stronger resilience. With Cloudvisor, you also get practical cost controls from day one and a roadmap to trim waste without slowing the business.
Most projects blend three paths. Rehost (lift-and-shift) moves VMs with minimal change for speed. Replatform swaps parts for managed services (e.g., RDS for self-hosted DBs) to cut admin work. Refactor reshapes code for cloud-native gains like autoscaling and event-driven jobs. Cloudvisor maps each app to the simplest path that meets performance, risk, and timeline goals.

With Cloudvisor, you also get practical cost controls from day one and a roadmap to trim waste without slowing the business.
Timelines range from a few weeks for a handful of VMs to several months for large estates with many dependencies. Drivers include the number of apps, data size, database cutover method, change-freeze windows, and compliance constraints. We build a phased plan, run pilots, and scale out wave by wave, keeping business-critical systems stable while we move the rest.
Costs fall into three buckets: one-time migration effort, tooling where needed, and ongoing AWS usage. We keep spend in check by right-sizing from day one, picking reserved or savings plans where it makes sense, and turning off idle resources. Many clients also qualify for AWS funding (MAP and credits). Cloudvisor helps with the paperwork and timing so you get the most value.
We design for safe switchovers using live replication, change data capture, and blue-green or canary releases. Databases move with tools like AWS DMS; files sync continuously until the final delta. We test restores, rehearse cutover steps, and keep a rollback plan ready. Most cutovers happen during low-traffic windows so users barely notice the change.
Common wins include web apps, APIs, Windows and Linux VMs, SQL/NoSQL databases, analytics pipelines, and batch jobs. Legacy apps can move as-is, then later benefit from managed services. Containerized workloads land well on ECS or EKS; event-driven tasks often move to Lambda. We also handle identity (IAM), backups, disaster recovery targets, and monitoring from day one.
Discovery may use AWS Application/Discovery tools plus your CMDB. Data moves via VPN, AWS Direct Connect, S3 multi-part uploads, or large jobs with Snowball. Compute lands on EC2, containers on ECS/EKS, databases on RDS/Aurora, and files on EFS/FSx/S3. IaC (e.g., Terraform/CloudFormation) keeps environments consistent. CloudWatch and AWS Backup cover visibility and recovery needs.
Security is baked in: least-privilege IAM, network segmentation, encrypted transit and at-rest data, and logging from day one. We set guardrails in the landing zone (accounts, baseline policies, alerts) and review changes before cutover. AWS carries broad certifications; Cloudvisor focuses on secure configuration and strong operational practices. If you need formal audits, your compliance team stays in the loop.
After go-live, we stick around. We track spend, right-size noisy resources, tune autoscaling and storage tiers, and keep dashboards clear so your team sees what matters. We may also schedule regular Well-Architected checks and help you plan the next easy wins, like moving a self-managed database to RDS or shifting a cron job to serverless to cut overhead.
