Cloud Data Migration Services

Leave aging servers or the wrong cloud behind: we migrate your applications, databases or an entire data warehouse onto the right cloud for them, with minimal disruption to the business. We plan the move around your downtime tolerance and your real data volume, and size the target architecture for where you’ll be in two years.

Six things a proper cloud migration fixes

With a planned move, you change what you pay for, how far you can grow, and how the system survives a bad day.

01

Cost-efficiency

Your cloud costs follow real usage. You pay for the capacity you run, and idle servers drop off the bill.

On your own servers, you pay the same in a quiet month as in your busiest week.

02

Scalability

Traffic spikes stop being an emergency. The system adds capacity on its own and releases it when the rush ends.

On fixed hardware, you plan growth around a purchase order, and a good quarter can outrun it.

03

Reliability & recovery

Backups and failover come built into the cloud services you run on. One dead machine rarely means downtime.

In a single server room, one failed disk or power cut can still stop everything at once.

04

Security

Access control and encryption follow your provider’s standards, and the provider keeps updating them after we hand the system over.

When teams rush the migration process, old security gaps travel into new infrastructure with the data.

05

Performance

Queries run on current hardware sized for the load. Response times usually hold steady as usage grows.

Every quarter you delay the migration, aging hardware adds a little more lag to each request.

06

User experience

Your users get the same responsive screens at the office and at home. Where they log in stops mattering.

Left on legacy systems, your users keep waiting on slow screens and start looking at other tools.

Our cloud and data migration services

  • Application migration

    Single applications or a full portfolio; quick lift-and-shift for apps that work as they are; full cloud-native rebuild for aging architecture.

  • Database & storage migration

    SQL and NoSQL database migration; file and object storage transfer; data integrity checks and minimal downtime at cutover.

  • Data warehouse migration

    Existing data warehouse or analytics pipeline; modern cloud data platform as the target; architecture sized for query speed and running cost.

  • Infrastructure & platform migration

    Servers, networks, and platform components; from on-premises or another cloud; onto AWS, Azure, or GCP.

  • Hybrid & multi-cloud migration

    Hybrid cloud setups across on-premises and public cloud; workloads split across more than one cloud, when one cloud is the wrong fit.

  • DevOps migration

    CI/CD pipelines rebuilt for the new setup; infrastructure-as-code and release automation; a faster release cycle, not just a relocated one.

Selected cloud data migration solutions

In 17 years we have delivered 250+ products across healthcare, finance, retail and SaaS, from single-app rehosts to full data warehouse moves. Some teams move to the cloud one app at a time; others move a full data warehouse at once, and we scope a cloud data migration solution for either. Much of this work is under NDA, so we show a selection.

Built for the way your industry works

When migrating to the cloud, you bring your industry’s rules along, and we plan around them.

Healthcare

HIPAA-aware handling: we set access rules before a single patient record moves.

E-commerce

Peak-season traffic: we schedule the cutover for your quietest weeks.

Dental

Product catalogues and order history: we check every record against the source after transfer.

Wellness

Bookings mixed with health details: we treat the whole dataset as sensitive.

Finance

Transaction and audit trails: we reconcile every record before sign-off.

Insurance

Years of claims history: we keep it searchable after the move.

Manufacturing

Round-the-clock plants: we plan the switch around your shift changes.

Utilities

Field and dispatch data: we move it without losing what crews captured offline.

The technologies we build with

We work on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, using the migration tools each cloud platform provides. If you are still choosing between them, we compare the options on your workloads first.

Why companies choose Ekreative for cloud data migration

Before you trust us with your data, check how we run our cloud data migration services.

Strategy before movement

Each workload gets its own decision between the three main migration strategies: rehost, replatform, or refactor. We base it on how the workload runs today, never on which option is quickest to sell.

Vendor-neutral cloud expertise

AWS, Azure, and GCP are all supported on equal footing. You get a cloud provider recommendation based on your workloads and what your team already runs, and we walk you through the reasoning before you commit.

Built for minimal disruption

We time every cutover to your schedule and keep a rollback plan and a parallel run ready. On products with 100k+ active users, we have already run migrations with zero downtime.

Cost-optimized from day one

We build rightsizing and cost alerts into the migration plan from the first week. You see the monthly forecast before cutover, so the first full cloud bill rarely brings surprises.

Data integrity is non-negotiable

We run automated tests that compare source and target records after every batch. You keep a log of what moved and when, and we work under SOC 2-aligned controls throughout.

Transparent, trackable progress

You get a progress report every week, measured against the timeline you approved at the start. When a date moves, we tell you first, with the reason and the fix.

How we migrate your data to the cloud

Step 1

Discovery & assessment

You get cloud data migration consulting up front: we audit your infrastructure and applications, map every dependency, and choose the right approach for each workload.

Step 2

Migration planning

You review the roadmap and timeline alongside the target cloud architecture. The rollback plan is in writing before any data moves, and you sign off.

Step 3

Pilot & validation

Before the full move, you watch us run a trial on one low-risk workload. We test the approach under real conditions and tune the plan.

Step 4

Phased migration & testing

We move your workloads in phases, never all at once. After each phase, we run data validation and automated tests to catch issues while they are small.

Step 5

Go-live & optimization

Once the migration is complete, you get performance monitoring and cost tuning through the first weeks after cutover. When you need more, ongoing support is there as your setup grows.

You usually get everything from the first audit to tuning after go-live. In between come the plan, a pilot run, and phased moves with testing, scaled to whatever needs to move, from one application to a full analytics platform.
