AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP)
The data-backed foundation behind smart cloud migration decisions.
Planning a cloud migration can be daunting, but with the AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP), your organization is equipped with a structured path to ensure a seamless transition to the cloud.
This assessment is the first phase of our proven migration framework: Assess → Mobilize → Migrate & Modernize.

Expert Guidance
Financial Clarity
Funding & Incentives
🆕
🆕
Optional Hardware Asset Buyback Program
Eliminate dual on-prem/cloud spend through early asset exit and capital recovery.
Early Asset Retirement
Exit servers, storage, licenses, and refresh cycles ahead of schedule to prevent dual spend during migration.
Create immediate financial efficiency before workloads move.
Capital Redirect
Recover value from existing hardware and convert it into upfront funding for migration, modernization, and automation.
Lease equipment back with uninterrupted support at a lower cost.
Operational Streamlining
Reduce overhead by shifting to a managed cloud environment without additional staffing.
Plus, we train your staff to manage new cloud infrastructure and even handle subsequent migrations.
Capability Uplift
Reinvest savings into performance improvements, stronger cloud security, and emerging AI capabilities.
These enhancements strengthen your organization’s overall modernization trajectory.
Assessment Components & Deliverables
Readiness Assessment
Identifies technical and organizational gaps along the six dimensions of the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework:
• Business
• Process
• People
• Platform
• Operations
• Security
Uncovers issues that could slow or derail migration before workloads move.

Process & Operations Discovery
Through guided interviews, we document how your environment is built, deployed, operated, and maintained, surfacing any modernization blockers early.
Application & Infrastructure Review
Detailed evaluation of:
• VM configurations
• CPU and memory usage
• OS and storage architecture
• Network patterns and connectivity
Used to determine workload priority and the right migration strategy for each system.

Dependency Mapping
Application interdependencies are mapped to avoid broken workflows, incomplete cutovers, and performance issues after migration.
Environment Inventory
Complete inventory of:
• Physical and virtual systems
• Storage tiers and capacity
• Backup strategies
• Hardware refresh cycles
Establishes a baseline for migration planning.

Usage & Performance Analysis
Analysis of utilization trends and performance patterns, including network behavior and workload activity, to guide accurate planning.
True Cost of Ownership (TCO)
Each workload is evaluated across:
• CPU, RAM, storage, and network utilization
• Performance requirements
• Licensing constraints
Then mapped to optimized cloud configurations.

Cost Optimization Strategy
We model the most effective pricing combinations:
• Savings Plans
• Reserved Instances
• On-Demand vs Spot usage
• Dedicated Hosts when required
Aligned to how your workloads actually run.
