Transforming lives through data and artificial intelligence

Cloud migration is the process of moving data, applications and infrastructure from a local (on-premises) environment to a Cloud Computing platform. In this model, you use on-demand processing, storage and services, paying only for what you use.

A successful migration follows structured steps, such as: 1. Defining the scope of what will be migrated – applications, databases, critical workloads. 2. Choosing the service model (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS). 3. Selecting the cloud provider – such as AWS, evaluating performance, cost and security. 4. Integration planning – access rules, data standards, governance and connectivity. 5. Execution with testing – validation, monitoring and adjustments to ensure stability.

Yes. The migration uses Cloud Computing security practices, including test environments, encryption, access control and continuous monitoring. Before the final migration, rigorous tests are run to ensure integrity, confidentiality and the possibility of rollback, if necessary.

During the assessment, the ST IT Cloud team checks dependencies, architecture, security requirements and system maturity. This way, we identify what can be migrated directly (Lift and Shift) and what needs modernization before moving to the cloud.

ROI depends on the size of the environment, the current model and the level of modernization. In general, companies reduce infrastructure costs, gain productivity and increase performance by adopting Cloud Computing, especially with good FinOps and automation practices.
