Server migration planned from start to finish

What is included

From cutover to follow-up, without the trauma

Any migration can be stressful if it is not well planned. We take care of every phase so yours is not.

  • Migration to new hardware

    We size and deploy new servers, replacing old equipment without losing what already works.

  • Physical server virtualization

    We consolidate physical servers into virtual machines, reducing hardware and simplifying environment upkeep.

  • Migration to the cloud

    We move workloads from local servers to the cloud, when that is the right path for your company.

  • Full assessment before touching anything

    We map applications, data and dependencies of the current environment before designing any migration path.

  • Backup and rollback plan

    A full backup and a rollback plan are part of every migration plan, before the cutover — so we can go back if something does not go as expected.

How it works

We get to know your environment before touching it

Every server migration starts with understanding your company and its needs, so we can recommend the right path.

  1. Step 01

    We assess your environment

    We map applications, data and dependencies of the current servers to understand what needs to migrate and how.

  2. Step 02

    Migration plan design

    We propose the path — new hardware, virtualization or cloud — the timeline and the migration window agreed with you.

  3. Step 03

    Migration execution

    We carry out the cutover following the plan, prioritizing lower-impact hours to reduce downtime.

  4. Step 04

    Validation and follow-up

    We test the services in the new environment, follow up closely and adjust any detail that comes up afterward.

Migrating servers can be stressful — we take that weight off you

Moving servers to new hardware, or from physical to virtualized instances, is usually stressful for whoever depends on them day to day. Our team takes on that weight, with timelines and outcomes agreed before starting.

We handle every phase of the project — from design to implementation and follow-up — as your partner until the new solution is running the way it should.

We get to know your company before proposing any change

Every migration solution starts with understanding your company and its needs. By getting to know your business better, we can make solid recommendations on how to build a network that fits what you actually need.

That applies to a simple hardware swap as much as to a larger virtualization or cloud migration project.

From design to deployment, without the trauma

Any migration can be traumatic if it is not well planned — but we are here to help from design through deployment. That includes a backup and rollback plan, so a failed cutover never turns into a bigger problem.

If your company already has a managed services plan with Skills IT, monitoring continues after the migration as part of normal operations.
