Find out why AWS Cloud is the best, how you benefit from cloud migration, how to migrate, and how StratusGrid can help.
There are many different cloud services available, however, AWS Cloud is consistently the market leader as it offers more flexibility, allowing you to scale your infrastructure easily. It also has excellent security, customer support, integrations, and a partner ecosystem.
Amazon Web Service (AWS) reports average infrastructure cost savings of 31% from moving to their cloud-computing system. You also benefit from a 69% reduction in unplanned downtime in comparison to on-premises.
Migrating your infrastructure to AWS Cloud offers 5 main benefits:
Easily scale up or down based on your business needs, ensuring that you pay only for the resources you use. This flexibility allows you to respond quickly to changing demands.
Eliminate the need for upfront capital investments with a pay-as-you-go pricing model. Reduce operational costs, optimize spending, and allocate resources more efficiently. Your financial management becomes easier with a cloud FinOps team analyzing AWS.
Reach customers and deploy applications globally using AWS’s extensive network of data centers around the world. Deliver low-latency, high-performance services to users worldwide.
Gain a robust set of AWS security features and certifications. APIs allow infrastructure management via code and integrations for automated compliance reporting and management.
Stay at the forefront of technological advancements without the cost and management of acquiring hardware. Enhance your capabilities and accelerate innovation through the AWS ecosystem of partners and third-party tools.

Migration is all about execution. It’s common for an organization to lose momentum and never complete all its objectives and achieve the anticipated value of its migration. At StratusGrid, our AWS-certified engineers have developed a proven 3-step playbook that helps companies’ migrations meet with resounding success:
The first step to migrate your systems is to analyze the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) on AWS to confirm it meets your conditions. Then you need to define your budget and the team that will perform the move. You also need to ensure that your project scope is set and that you have the control and the skills required for the migration.
If you don’t want to dive into the project without a partner, our experienced team can help. We collaborate closely with you to gain a deep understanding of your organization’s unique needs and aspirations for cloud migration. This phase is the crucial foundation upon which the entire migration journey is built.
We will:
Deep dive with agents into applications and grouping
Apply migration calculators for each discovered workload in the scope
Manually review and complete reports and other deliverables
Develop Migration Readiness Assessment and risk analysis
The second stage is to mobilize all the resources for the migration. This includes a specific project to analyze your migration scope, and migration paths for each application.
At StratusGrid we build a solid foundation that fits your organization’s structure, configure your environment with precision, and guide you through pilot migrations to validate assumptions. In short, we turn your cloud vision into reality.
We will:
Partner with your teams to finalize architectural requirements and design
Plan out and document target designs
Identify any service templatization or repeatable patterns to be built out
Ensure architecture aligns with your organization's goals, compliance, etc.
Plan out mitigations for identified risks
Identify assumptions to test during the pilot
The last step is to migrate, and fully innovate your systems, re-organizing your architecture.
At StratusGrid we take charge of driving your migration process forward seamlessly, ensuring that the process remains on track, avoids interruptions, and accomplishes your essential business priorities.
We will:
Build out milestones based on priority and logical units of value.
Plan out work for the initial milestone.
Migrate workloads.
Repeat the process until all workloads are migrated and your organization’s goals have been met.
