MAP Assess

Our AWS experts conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your current IT landscape, including applications, infrastructure, and processes. This assessment identifies dependencies, potential risks, and opportunities for optimisation, providing a clear roadmap for your cloud journey. Embrace the cloud's potential with confidence. Partner with us to achieve your business goals through a seamless and efficient cloud migration and modernisation process.

Discovery & Assessment: We'll conduct a thorough evaluation of your IT landscape, covering infrastructure, applications, and processes.

TCO Analysis: We'll provide a clear breakdown of your on-premises vs. AWS costs, revealing potential savings.

Migration Path Assessment: We'll create a tailored migration plan, including timelines, strategies, and risk mitigation approaches and possible target architecture in AWS.


Business Case Development: We'll build a compelling case for cloud migration, showcasing the ROI and benefits.

Statement of Work: We'll craft a detailed plan for your cloud journey, outlining migration phases, efforts and timeline.

MAP Mobilise

In the MAP Mobilise phase, we collaborate to define a precise and comprehensive migration and modernisation strategy. This includes identifying the optimal approach for each application, whether it's re-hosting, re-platforming, or re-architecting to leverage cloud-native features. We then meticulously prepare your AWS environment, including setting up the necessary infrastructure and establishing an effective operating model to seamlessly manage your modernised applications and data in the cloud.


Detailed Migration Planning: We'll craft a comprehensive plan for your cloud migration, outlining sequence, timelines, initial Landing Zone design, and resource allocation for moving workloads to AWS.


Workload Identification for Testing & Validation: We'll assess & identify key workloads to test and refine your migration strategy, minimising risks and ensuring a smooth transition to AWS.


Preparing your AWS environment: We'll build a secure and scalable landing zone foundation in AWS, equipped with the necessary networking, security, and governance controls for your workloads.


Migrate & Modernise Pilot Workloads: We'll implement pilot workloads in AWS and assess the migration process in relation to migration plan.

MAP Migrate

In the MAP Migrate phase, we execute the carefully crafted migration plan and bring your operating model to life. This involves transferring your workloads to AWS, while simultaneously adapting and modernising your applications to thrive in their new cloud environment. We ensure a seamless transition, optimising your applications to fully harness the power and flexibility of the AWS cloud.


Workload Migration: We'll seamlessly migrate your applications, data, and infrastructure to AWS, ensuring a smooth transition with minimal disruption.


Operational Excellence: We'll implement robust monitoring, logging, and incident management processes, ensuring your cloud environment operates at peak performance and reliability.


Customer Enablement: We'll create a transition plan and knowledge transfer session to equip your team with the knowledge and skillls they need to thrive with your new environment.


Cost Optimisation: We'll implement a proactive cost management strategy to maximise your cloud investment and ensure ongoing efficiency.

Automate your management, scaling & deployment with AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS)

time-blueindividualprice2-blueupon request

Atlassian's reference architecture for hosting their applications on AWS is to use AWS's Kubernetes service, EKS. Previously, Atlassian provided CloudFormation templates to set up all components required to host their applications (eg, servers, database, storage, application configuration). 

START TODAY

SERVICES | OUTCOME
  • Atlassian has ended support for this configuration, and now provides templates for deploying their applications as containers on Kubernetes.
  • With such a significant change in technology, demicon, as an Atlassian & AWS Partner, can assess, design and implement the migration to Atlassian's new cloud deployment architecture.

Reduce your AWS costs by migrating from MS SQL Server to PostgreSQL for your Atlassian applications

time-blueindividualprice2-blueupon request

Using MS SQL Server on AWS RDS for Atlassian applications is significantly more expensive than open source alternatives (eg, PostgreSQL). The database migration tool provided by Atlassian can have performance and reliability issues, depending on the volume of data to be migrated.

START TODAY

SERVICES | OUTCOME
  • demicon provides a migration option that that uses more native functionality to better scale to manage production data volumes. During the assessment phase, we will calculate the data transfer times, and provide an estimate of the cost savings by migrating away from MS SQL Server.

Migrate VMWare workloads to AWS

time-blueindividualprice2-blueupon request

Recent changes have significantly increased VMWare licensing costs. For many companies, keeping infrastructure 'as is' is no longer the cheaper option. AWS offers funding programs for migrating VMWare workloads to their cloud platform ,which, together with avoiding the VMWare licensing increases, may make AWS the more cost effective option.

START TODAY

SERVICES | OUTCOME
  • demicon will work with you to assess your migration options, design a migration plan, and create a cost analysis for migrating and running workloads on AWS.
