Migration to the cloud

The IT company SoftDen will develop a strategy of migration to the cloud, taking into account the current needs of customers, cost analysis, data access and security. We will help you to choose the right set of cloud services, providing maximum efficiency of the solution. After the data transfer, we will test the application's performance in the cloud, its ability to work in a new environment. In our work, we use the best practices in the field of migration, proven by experience on the example of implemented projects. Within a short time we will create solutions based on public, private and hybrid clouds.

Advantages of migrating to the cloud

Migration to the cloud is an inevitable process for companies that are forced to maintain business dynamism and do not want to invest extra funds in the purchase of infrastructure. Hardware and software get out of date, it is irrational to invest in the purchase of new servers, allocate space for them and hire maintenance personnel.

Migration of information databases and business systems to cloud storage allows you to:

ensure high performance of services;
increase the flexibility and speed of implementing new ideas;
reduce the risk of business operations;
improve data security and ensure compliance with security standard of PCI DSS payment card industry;
reduce infrastructure maintenance costs.

Based on cloud solutions, SoftDen employees create reliable and scalable hosting models that can flexibly adapt to the existing needs of applications and IT systems. We help in project management in order to ensure their maximum efficiency.

How to migrate data to the cloud storage

Hardware and software get out of date, it is irrational to invest in the purchase of new servers, allocate space for them and hire maintenance personnel.

creation of a scalable cloud solution;
selection of corresponding resources configuration in the storage;
installation of necessary system components;
data migration to the cloud;
testing and optimization of the resource;

When migrating databases from a local server or another cloud, you need to solve the following issues:

1.

1. Analyze the existing model.

The evaluation takes into account:

The level of system virtualization. When migrating to the cloud, it is necessary to bring the architecture in line with the requirements of the services. If the system is partially or fully virtualized, it is easier to run it in the cloud. More time will be required for local solutions due to the necessity to reconfigure the architecture.
Certain commercial software is used – some licensed software cannot be installed in the cloud storage, only on a local server.
Rationality of individual applications migration. Practice shows that sometimes it is more rational to leave a number of system elements (archives, personal data processing centers) in the current or upgraded form on a local server.

2.

Choosing a provider.

There is an extensive list of cloud services on the market. We recommend:

AWS (AmazonWebServices) – commercial public cloud;
Azure – Microsoft cloud platform;
GCP (GoogleCloudPlatform – a set of cloud services;
DigitalOcean – a platform with a cloud infrastructure, focused on developers;
HetznerCloud is an economical cloud hosting with an extensive set of features.

The offers differ in cost, the range of services, the solutions offered, and different approach to data protection. We will help you to choose the right provider based on the scale of the project, the volume of tasks to be solved, the operating conditions of the system and the existing budget.

3.

Organization of migration to the cloud.

All elements, dependencies in the system, processes are evaluated, and areas for refactoring or changes are determined. The analysis allows you to prioritize and estimate the time required to perform the transfer of databases to the cloud storage. On the basis of these data, the terms of implementation and the size of the budget are established.
