Migration Strategy: The 7 R’s of AWS

Once the Migration Assessment is complete, we move on to the Migration Strategy phase, where we use the 7 R’s of AWS to determine the best path for each workload in your infrastructure.
These 7 strategies allow us to make informed decisions on how to approach migration, according to your business needs and the characteristics of each workload.
Re-host (Lift and Shift)
We move your applications as-is to the cloud, without modification, for immediate scalability benefits and cost savings.
Re-platform (Lift, Tinker, and Shift)
We improve the infrastructure of your cloud applications, optimizing performance without completely rewriting them.
Re-factor (Re-architect)
We modify applications to take full advantage of cloud capabilities such as elasticity and resource efficiency, which can include significant architectural changes.
Remove
We discard applications or workloads that are no longer needed, eliminating unnecessary operating expenses and optimizing infrastructure.
Retain (Check and maintain in place)
We decide to keep some workloads on your local infrastructure if it is determined that it is not yet convenient to migrate them.
Repurchase
We choose to replace existing applications or services with SaaS (Software as a Service) solutions, leveraging the cloud to improve efficiency and reduce operating costs.
Replace
We migrate applications to a new platform or service that is better suited to the needs of the business, replacing obsolete or inefficient solutions.
