IT Director at ScienceSoft, 15 years in IT

To prevent any disruptions to your operations, we meticulously plan migrations around your business schedules. Our team identifies peak business hours, critical operational periods (such as month-end reporting for financial departments), and any upcoming business initiatives that require full system availability. Knowing all that, we customize migration windows to align with the low-impact periods. For many businesses, this means scheduling migrations for night hours, weekends, or public holidays.

We employ real-time monitoring to quickly address any issues during migration and have robust rollback plans ready to minimize potential disruptions. Our strategy includes incremental migrations and running parallel systems when possible, allowing business operations to continue smoothly on the existing infrastructure while parts of the system are moved.

IT Director at ScienceSoft, 15 years in IT

To really make the most of the cloud, you often need more than migrating your apps and data storage. To get all the benefits — like being able to scale easily or using cool features for AI and IoT — reconsider how your storage and apps are built and managed. This includes incorporating modern approaches like microservices or serverless architectures, containers, infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines. By doing this, your IT components will do more than just work in the cloud — they'll thrive.

How Long Does Cloud Migration Take?

There are multiple factors that influence the migration timeline, e.g., the chosen cloud migration method, the complexity or workloads and data volume to migrate, the scope of the target infrastructure, the required code and configuration changes. Based on ScienceSoft’s experience, a typical migration of a simple app takes ~2–2.5 months, medium and complex apps – 6+ months, a DWH – ~2–8 months.

How Much Does Cloud Migration Cost?

$20,000–$250,000

For a medium/large application.

$500,000+

For a large app with deep modernization (e.g., re-architecting into microservices).

$140,000–$280,000

For the migration to a cloud DWH like Azure Synapse or Amazon Redshift (for a company with 500–1,000 employees).

$280,000–$700,000

Rehosting and relocating involve transferring applications and data storages to the cloud or another cloud with minimal to no changes, while not fully utilizing cloud-native features. Refactoring, re-architecting, and rebuilding involve varying degrees of modification to optimize applications or data storage systems for the cloud, from minor adjustments to a complete redesign using using advanced cloud services.

*What environments are you planning to have in the cloud?

*How many clouds are you planning to use?

Do you need to build an efficient CI/CD process after the migration?

Do you plan to implement cloud strategies for high availability, fault tolerance, scalability and disaster recovery?

Do you want to implement automated monitoring of your assets in the cloud?

Common Questions about Cloud Migration Services Answered

How can I be sure that my migration investments will pay off?

As a rule, we start with cloud migration consulting to assess the feasibility of your migration project and calculate the TCO and ROI of the solution-to-be.

How do you choose the best cloud option for a specific migration project?

Each cloud provider offers different IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS services. It’s our job as a vendor-neutral cloud migration company to be proficient in the cloud offerings and help you find the best match for your needs. Our recommendation will be a result of a thorough analysis of your budget constraints and requirements for the cloud infrastructure, compliance, security, performance, availability, and many other factors. Choose the right cloud with expert help.

Should a legacy data warehouse continue working simultaneously while the data is being migrated?

When it comes to large and complex data migrations, we tend to have both cloud and on-premises data warehouses running simultaneously during the migration and a short period after. This makes us always ready to roll back in case we face issues that cannot be solved immediately, thus avoiding business disruptions.

Can cloud migration result in application misbehavior?

We provide automated testing to check app business logic, so we can continuously monitor how introduced changes influence it at no additional cost.

How can I control the migration project’s progress?

We ensure cooperation transparency to give you full visibility into the project progress. We work in adherence with an SLA that outlines the expected timelines, responsibilities, deliverables, and KPIs. You also receive regular reports on the completed tasks.
