Cloud Migration Services for Healthcare
With 21 years of experience in healthcare IT, ScienceSoft moves healthcare systems and data to the cloud without disrupting operations, compliance, or interoperability.
We don’t just relocate software. We untangle complex data, modernize legacy apps, rebuild integrations, and leave you with a secure cloud foundation that performs consistently across departments, partners, and systems.
Healthcare cloud migration services enable providers, payers, and life sciences companies to replace fragmented, hard-to-scale IT environments with structured, governed cloud architectures. The process typically includes workload assessment, dependency mapping, data harmonization, and security redesign to prevent legacy issues from resurfacing in the cloud. The result is an IT ecosystem that is easier to scale, integrate, and audit.
Healthcare Cloud Migration Services by ScienceSoft
We co-shape your migration strategy from the big picture down to the specific steps. Our principal architects will assess your IT ecosystem, critical dependencies, integrations, data flows, security, scalability, and cost drivers to define the target cloud architecture, migration waves, and rollback approach for each workload.
We plan the cloud architecture, migration plan, and risk controls, and move your workloads to the chosen platform. Our engineers migrate data and integrations, set up hybrid connectivity where needed, plan and execute the cutover, prepare rollback measures, and validate the environment to keep operations stable.
Where business goals or technical constraints call for more than lift-and-shift migration, we modernize applications and existing cloud environments. This may include software refactoring and replatforming, integration redesign, and architecture improvements to enhance scalability, resilience, interoperability, and long-term maintainability.
We can implement or modernize data exchange across clinical, administrative, and external systems. This may include enabling HL7 and FHIR interfaces, connecting systems through APIs, and designing new data pipelines. We can also establish data mapping, validation, reconciliation, and data controls to support interoperability and consistent data quality.
We can help manage cloud and hybrid infrastructures at any stage of their lifecycle. Depending on the scope, this may include monitoring environments, improving observability, handling incidents, rightsizing resources, automating operations, and enforcing compliance controls to stabilize operations, improve visibility, and reduce cloud spend.
We design healthcare cloud environments around your security and governance needs: HIPAA safeguards for PHI, identity and access management, multi-factor authentication, encryption and key management, network and application firewalls, virtual private clouds, native security monitoring, and compliance controls.

Cloud Migration Roadmap

Clouds Best Fit for Migrating Healthcare Workflows
| Cloud provider | Healthcare-specific strengths | Often selected for |
|---|---|---|
|
Cloud provider
|
Healthcare-specific strengths
Broad healthcare cloud portfolio, including HIPAA support via AWS BAA, a large list of HIPAA-eligible services, AWS HealthLake for FHIR data, and AWS HealthImaging for DICOM imaging. |
Often selected for
Large-scale migrations, integration-heavy environments, imaging archives, enterprise data platforms, and hybrid architectures. AWS is especially strong where there is a need for a broad set of services across compute, storage, networking, data, and interoperability. |
|
Cloud provider
|
Healthcare-specific strengths
Strong identity, governance, and policy tooling, plus HIPAA support via Microsoft BAA for covered Azure services and Azure Health Data Services for FHIR and DICOM workloads. |
Often selected for
Enterprise and hybrid migrations that need centralized identity, policy-based compliance assessment, and healthcare data services, especially in Microsoft-heavy environments. |
|
Cloud provider
Google Cloud (GCP) |
Healthcare-specific strengths
Strong data engineering, analytics, and artificial intelligence capabilities, with HIPAA support via Google Cloud BAA for covered services and Cloud Healthcare API for FHIR, HL7v2, and DICOM data. |
Often selected for
Population health analytics, AI/ML initiatives, interoperability platforms, and large-scale data pipelines. Sometimes used alongside another primary cloud for core clinical systems. |
|
Cloud provider
Oracle Cloud (OCI) |
Healthcare-specific strengths
Alignment with Oracle databases, enterprise applications, and health environments. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for healthcare is a quick way to connect Oracle Health EHR with Oracle business operations systems. |
Often selected for
Oracle database workloads, Oracle ERP, Oracle Health environments, and migrations where performance, operational alignment, or licensing considerations make staying within the Oracle stack reasonable. |
|
Cloud provider
IBM Cloud
|
Healthcare-specific strengths
Specialized option for organizations with existing IBM platforms. IBM offers HIPAA-ready environments, HIPAA-enabled services, encryption controls, and regulated workloads. IBM also offers customer-controlled encryption keys for sensitive healthcare data. |
Often selected for
IBM-centered legacy environments, regulated enterprise workloads, disaster recovery modernization, and scenarios where IBM infrastructure or security controls are already part of the landscape. |
To help healthcare organizations evaluate cloud compliance readiness, we also have a dedicated page outlining HIPAA compliance across major cloud platforms. As a certified Microsoft Azure and AWS partner, ScienceSoft can offer clients additional commercial advantages when delivering cloud migration projects.
