AWS

Unlike standard lift-and-shift approaches that merely relocate problems, our CloudSmart migration transforms your infrastructure during the transition. We use parallel environments with automated synchronization to maintain business operations while migrating, reducing typical downtime from days to minutes. This methodology enables complex legacy system migration to AWS with minimal disruption while simultaneously optimizing for cloud-native performance and cost efficiency.

We confidently migrate legacy systems that others consider "unmovable" through our CloudSmart methodology. We employ advanced containerization techniques to migrate applications without requiring rewrites, database synchronization to ensure zero data loss, and infrastructure optimization to reduce costs. Our parallel environment approach allows us to test thoroughly before cutover, ensuring your legacy applications not only work in AWS but perform better than they did on-premises.

Our migration methodology includes right-sizing Amazon EC2 instances, implementing intelligent S3 storage tiering, designing VPC architecture for future growth, configuring multi-region deployments when needed, and embedding security controls during migration rather than after. We focus on creating an AWS-optimized architecture that leverages cloud-native capabilities from day one, ensuring you gain all the benefits of AWS's hyper-scale environment immediately.

Our parallel environment approach creates a synchronized copy of your production environment in AWS while your existing systems continue to run. We use automated data synchronization to maintain consistency, allowing for real-time testing before cutover. This significantly reduces risk and limits downtime to minutes instead of hours or days, enabling businesses to migrate even mission-critical applications with minimal operational impact.

We implement AWS Zero Trust through a layered approach that combines network segmentation, identity-based access controls, and continuous monitoring. Our methodology leverages Amazon VPC configurations for micro-segmentation, implements AWS IAM with least privilege principles, deploys AWS Verified Access for identity-centric controls, and utilizes AWS Security Hub and GuardDuty for continuous monitoring and threat detection. This comprehensive approach reduces your attack surface by 90% while maintaining operational efficiency.

Zero Trust Architecture is a security model that eliminates implicit trust based on network location, requiring verification for every access request regardless of source. In AWS environments, this means implementing continuous authentication and authorization across EC2 instances, S3 buckets, and VPC configurations. Our approach integrates native AWS security services like VPC Lattice, Verified Access, and IAM with identity verification controls to ensure only authorized users and systems can access your cloud resources.

Our phased implementation starts by protecting your most critical AWS assets first, using automated deployment tools to extend protection incrementally while maintaining business continuity. We begin by implementing identity verification, then add device posture assessment, behavior monitoring, and micro-segmentation progressively. This measured approach allows you to strengthen your AWS security posture without disrupting essential workflows or sacrificing productivity.

Our Zero Trust implementation leverages AWS-native security services including VPC Lattice for service-to-service connectivity, AWS Verified Access for identity-centric authentication, AWS Verified Permissions for fine-grained authorization, API Gateway for request verification, Amazon GuardDuty for threat detection, and AWS CloudWatch for anomaly detection. This integrated approach ensures continuous verification across your entire AWS infrastructure while minimizing management overhead.
