AWS Migration Assessment
Evaluate source infrastructure, map application dependencies, plan target cloud architectures, and identify cutover risks before migrating.
Plan your move to AWS with structured discovery and clear risk boundaries.
Overview & Operational Context
Moving on-premises or co-located servers into AWS requires methodical discovery, accurate dependency mapping, and realistic architecture design. Kervora Cloud evaluates your existing workloads to produce a structured roadmap, target architecture blueprints, and a controlled cutover strategy. Where a migration requires specialist capability outside the agreed scope, Kervora can work alongside appropriate delivery partners rather than taking unnecessary risk with your environment.
What we inspect and evaluate
Every review is tailored to your architecture while maintaining systematic rigor across primary risk vectors.
Workload Inventory & Discovery
Cataloguing of physical servers, virtual machines, database engines, operating systems, and application frameworks.
Dependency & Network Mapping
Analysis of inter-service communications, external third-party integrations, port requirements, and latency sensitivities.
Target Architecture Design
Drafting of recommended AWS foundations: VPC layout, subnet routing, compute strategy (EC2, ECS, or Serverless), and managed RDS services.
Security & Compliance Boundaries
Definition of IAM landing zone requirements, encryption standards, network segmentation, and perimeter firewalls.
Migration Approach (7 Rs)
Assessment of whether workloads should be Rehosted, Replatformed, Refactored, or Retired based on business priorities.
Cutover & Rollback Considerations
Planning data synchronization methods, maintenance windows, DNS transition procedures, and structured rollback triggers.

Common questions
What does migration planning cover?
We assess your workloads, dependencies and AWS requirements, then outline the target architecture and a phased migration approach. Specialist delivery needs and partner responsibilities are identified as part of the agreed scope.
