Cloud Migration

Move what matters.Modernize the mix.

Cloud migration is not lift-and-shift alone. We migrate applications and data together — with the right blend of rehost, replatform, refactor, hybrid, and multi-cloud — engineered for resilience, cost control, and high-performance delivery.

The right mix

Apps and data move as one program — not two projects that collide later.

Cloud environments only deliver value when application topology, data gravity, security boundaries, and run-cost are designed together. We map what stays on-prem, what moves, and what gets rebuilt — then execute with minimal disruption.

For healthcare and regulated industries, every path includes encryption, identity, auditability, and BAA-ready hosting choices from day one.

Application lane Rehost, replatform, or refactor services, integrations, and batch jobs.
Data lane Migrate databases, warehouses, files, and ETL — aligned to the Precision Data Framework.
Platform lane Landing zones, networking, IAM, hybrid connectivity, and multi-cloud options.

Migration path

Five stages from discovery to cloud operations.

Clear outcomes for both applications and data at every step.

01

Assess & Prioritize

Inventory applications, data stores, dependencies, and compliance constraints before any move.

App & Integration InventoryMap services, batch jobs, APIs, and third-party dependencies.
Data Estate MappingClassify stores by sensitivity, volume, latency, and gravity.
6R Fit AnalysisRecommend rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retain, or retire.
Cost & Risk BaselineTCO model, compliance gaps, and migration sequencing.
02

Design the Target

Cloud-optimized architecture for apps and data — hybrid or full-cloud as needed.

Landing Zone & NetworkAccounts, VPC/VNet patterns, connectivity, and segmentation.
App Target PatternsContainers, managed services, serverless, or VM where justified.
Cloud Data ArchitectureWarehouses, lakehouses, streaming, and backup/DR topology.
Security & ComplianceIAM, encryption, logging, HIPAA-ready controls where required.
03

Migrate Applications

Move workloads with the strategy that matches each app — not a one-size lift.

Rehost / ReplatformFast path for stable systems that need cloud elasticity first.
Refactor / ModernizeBreak monoliths, adopt containers, and improve deployability.
Integration ContinuityKeep APIs, EDI, and partner feeds alive during cutover.
CI/CD & EnvironmentsDevOps pipelines so cloud apps ship safely after go-live.
04

Migrate Data

Secure, validated movement of structured and unstructured data with pipeline modernization.

Database & File MigrationOnline/offline cutovers with reconciliation and rollback plans.
ETL / ELT ModernizationCloud-native pipelines for batch and near-real-time needs.
Parity ValidationRow counts, checksums, and business reconciliations before switch.
Governance in CloudAccess controls, retention, and audit trails in the new home.
05

Optimize & Operate

Cloud is not done at cutover — tune cost, performance, and reliability continuously.

ObservabilityMetrics, logs, traces, and actionable alerts across apps and data.
FinOps / Cost ControlRightsizing, reserved capacity, and idle-resource cleanup.
Hybrid & Multi-CloudKeep flexibility across providers or on-prem + cloud when needed.
AI / Burst WorkloadsOn-demand compute for analytics and ML without always-on cost.

Strategy options

The right move for each workload.

Rehost

Lift & shift

Move VMs and apps quickly when speed and elasticity matter more than redesign.

Replatform

Managed services

Adopt managed databases, queues, and containers with minimal code change.

Refactor

Modernize

Reshape architecture for scalability, DevOps, and cloud-native patterns.

Repurchase

SaaS where fit

Replace aging systems with cloud SaaS when buy beats build.

Retain

Hybrid keepers

Keep latency-sensitive or regulated workloads on-prem with secure cloud links.

Retire

Decommission

Turn off redundant systems and reduce the blast radius of migration.

Why SWIP

Cloud migration with enterprise and healthcare discipline.

A+D

Apps + Data

One program covering workloads and the data they depend on.

$

Cost Control

Designed for resilience without runaway cloud spend.

H

Hybrid Ready

Multi-cloud and on-prem bridges when full cutover is not wise.

⚙

DevOps Built-In

Pipelines and observability so cloud apps keep shipping.

✓

Compliance Minded

Security, audit, and regulated-industry practices from day one.

Plan your cloud move across apps and data.

We’ll help you pick the right mix — what to migrate, what to modernize, and what to leave hybrid — then execute with clear milestones.
