Rehost

Move an application to the cloud without making any changes.

Refactor

Move an application and modify its architecture by taking advantage of cloud features.

Replatform

Move an application to the cloud, and introduce a level of optimization to be adjusted to cloud.

Retain

FAQ

1. What benefits can organizations achieve through cloud migration?
Cloud migration can help organizations improve scalability, increase operational agility, strengthen security, enhance business continuity, and optimize IT costs. It also provides a foundation for adopting modern cloud-native services, data platforms, and AI-driven innovation.
2. Can I migrate workloads from other cloud platforms to AWS?
Yes. Going Cloud supports migrations from on-premises environments as well as other cloud platforms to AWS. Our team assesses your existing architecture, dependencies, and business requirements to develop a migration strategy that minimizes risk and disruption.
3. Will migrating to the cloud cause downtime, data loss, or security risks?
Cloud migration does not necessarily require downtime or result in data loss. By using the AWS 7Rs migration framework and AWS-native migration tools with continuous data replication, data can be synchronized in the background and migrated during planned low-traffic windows, minimizing disruption while following security and data protection best practices.
4. How do I choose the right AWS 7Rs migration strategy for my business?
The right AWS migration strategy depends on your applications, business objectives, budget, timeline, and compliance requirements. Most organizations use a combination of migration strategies rather than a single approach. A migration assessment helps identify the best option for each workload, balancing risk, cost, performance, and business outcomes while creating a clear migration roadmap.
5. What are the key phases of a cloud migration project, and what deliverables should I expect during the assessment stage?
Cloud migration projects typically follow four phases: Assess, Mobilize, Migrate, and Modernize. During the assessment stage, we evaluate your existing environment, application dependencies, security requirements, migration readiness, and total cost of ownership (TCO). Key deliverables may include a migration strategy, workload assessment, migration roadmap, target architecture recommendations, a high-level TCO analysis, and estimated project timelines.
6. What is a Wave Plan, and how does it help organizations manage large-scale cloud migrations?
A Wave Plan is a structured migration schedule that groups related workloads, applications, and infrastructure into manageable migration phases, or "waves." By prioritizing workloads based on business impact, technical dependencies, and risk, organizations can reduce disruption, improve migration efficiency, and maintain better control throughout large-scale cloud transformation projects.
7. What are the typical timelines and costs for a cloud migration?
Cloud migration timelines and costs depend on factors such as workload volume, application complexity, migration strategy, and business requirements. Many projects can begin within 4 to 12 weeks, but the best way to estimate timelines and costs is through a migration assessment tailored to your environment and goals.
8. Does Going Cloud provide ongoing support after the migration is completed?
Yes. Following migration, organizations can choose from additional services such as cloud billing management and managed services based on their operational requirements. Whether the goal is simplified billing, greater cost visibility, 24/7 operational support, or ongoing cloud optimization, our team can recommend the most suitable support model for your needs.
9. What real-world cloud migration success stories can Going Cloud share?
Going Cloud has supported cloud migration, modernization, and optimization projects for organizations across multiple industries. Success stories featured on our website include projects involving high-traffic digital platforms, media services, and enterprise workloads. Our team can also share additional case studies relevant to your industry and business requirements during a consultation.
