Cloud migration success stories

Here’s how we helped businesses like yours improve scalability, boost performance, and decrease costs with expert cloud migration and consulting services.

  • Background for

    Migrating a monolithic application to a microservice architecture

    Choo

    Custom CRM and membership management system, Norway

    The client decided to transition from several monolithic applications to a single multi-tenant SaaS system. This increased the requirements for fault tolerance and scalability. To reduce costs and save valuable time, we migrated the project to AWS using Kubernetes clusters for autoscaling. As a result, the company united over 15 organizations in one SaaS app that has 200,000+ active users.

  • Background for

    Hetzner Cloud migration to support an ambitious SaaS modernization

    Automotive SaaS application, EU

    Our client planned a scalable SaaS platform but was constrained by its on-premise setup and inconsistent team practices. An audit revealed major gaps: manual deployments, no automated testing or unified monitoring, and two teams working without clear roles. MindK defined a cloud migration strategy and led the transition from on-premise infrastructure to Hetzner Cloud to improve scalability, reliability, and operational efficiency.

    • Infrastructure as code to automate provisioning and environment replication on Hetzner.
    • CI/CD pipelines with automated testing to improve build reliability and speed.
    • On-demand service creation in minutes instead of a full day.
    • Hardening of infrastructure and processes to align with GDPR and modern cloud standards.
  • Background for

    AWS migration for a first-in-the-class ad campaign management solution

    Aim Analytics

    Custom web application, USA

    Converze Media wanted to build an analytical platform like Google AdWords to manage hundreds of ad campaigns across TV and radio stations. The most cost-effective way to achieve this goal was to migrate the application to AWS. Our team drafted the cloud migration strategy, planned the execution, and built the analytics. As a result, Converze saves hundreds of thousands of USD on repetitive manual work. 

  • Background for

    Migrating a SaaS app to AWS and service-oriented architecture

    CEMAsys

    Leading CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) software, Norway

    CEMAsys is one of the leading sustainability reporting tools, chosen by Forbes Global 2000 companies. To streamline the long-term support and the development of new features, we migrated the app to a service-oriented architecture. With the AWS migration in the process, some modules already have higher scalability, performance, and availability.

    Our cloud migration process

    A successful cloud migration requires structured phases, clear deliverables, and realistic timelines that align with your business goals. Below is our cloud migration process roadmap with estimated durations from initial assessment to post-migration optimization.

    Discovery & Assessment

    Before any cloud workload is moved, we conduct a thorough assessment of your current infrastructure, applications, data dependencies, and performance baselines. This phase ensures you only migrate workloads that are suitable for the cloud and helps avoid surprises later.

    You get: Application inventory and dependency maps, cloud readiness scoring, initial cost estimate, and risk profile.

    Duration: 1–3 Weeks

    01

    Cloud migration strategy

    We develop a detailed cloud migration strategy and roadmap, including prioritization, chosen migration methods (e.g., lift-and-shift, replatforming, refactoring), security planning, and compliance requirements.

    You get: Migration blueprint, target architecture, migration sequencing plan, estimated timelines.

    Duration: 2–6 Weeks

    02

    Proof of Concept, Landing Zone Setup

    Before large-scale execution, we validate your approach with a pilot. We also set up the cloud landing zone, a secure, automated environment tailored to your organization’s policies (networking, IAM, monitoring, logging). This phase minimizes downtime and shows early results to stakeholders.

    You get: Performance and tooling validation, compliance guardrails, risk mitigation.

    Duration: 1–4 Weeks

    03

    Migration Execution

    This phase covers the actual transfer of selected workloads into the cloud. We emphasize phased execution. Our engineers migrate groups of workloads in controlled “waves”, reducing business disruption and fostering iterative optimization.

    You get: Data and application migration, database sync & replication, cutover plan, functional and performance testing reports, rollback & contingency setups.

    Duration: 4–16 Weeks

    04

    Testing, Validation & Cutover

    Once workloads are migrated, comprehensive testing ensures performance, security, and compliance meet your expectations. Only after successful validation do we switch operational traffic to the cloud environment.

    You get: Cloud environment integrity, performance benchmarking, security and access validation, rollback triggers.

    Duration: 2–6 Weeks

    05

    Post-Migration Support

    After go-live, the cloud migration journey enters optimization for cost-efficiency, resilience, and ongoing innovation. This phase is continuous and ongoing long after the initial migration project closes.

    You get: Resource right-sizing, performance tuning, autoscaling, security monitoring, cost observability and alerts, operational handover.

    Duration: Ongoing

        Frequently Asked Questions

        • What are cloud migration services?

          Cloud migration services help businesses move workloads, applications, and data from on-premise systems to public, private, or hybrid cloud environments (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure) with minimal business disruption.

        • Why should my business migrate to the cloud?

          Cloud migration delivers improved scalability, performance, and resilience. It enables cost optimization through pay-as-you-go models, accelerates innovation with agile deployments, and enhances security with modern cloud controls.

        • How long does it take to migrate to the cloud?

          You can have a simple app with a couple of services you can migrate in half a day. In case of massive systems, the cloud migration engineering services might take up to 18 months. You can get a more detailed cloud migration timeline by talking to our experts.

        • How much does cloud migration cost?

          Cloud migration costs hinge on the project specifics. It’s important to perform an application assessment for cloud migration to accurately estimate the project duration. You can then multiply it by the specialist’s rates with the average cloud engineer in the US earning $79 per hour, according to Glassdoor.

           

        • How do you handle cloud migration security?

          Our cloud engineers always follow the best security practices of cloud service providers. Depending on the client’s needs, we can use private networks, VPN IPsec tunnels, separate sub-accounts for environments, Single Sign-On (SSO), relevant security groups, and Security as Code tools like Snyk and SonarQube.

        • What are the types of migration in cloud computing?

          There are five approaches to cloud migration (also called “5Rs”): 

          • Rehosting involves lifting the app to a cloud server without any changes. 
          • Refactoring optimizes the software for the cloud before a legacy to cloud migration. 
          • Revising means tweaking the application architecture to fully benefit from the cloud. 
          • Rebuilding involves rewriting the app’s code to build upon the Revise approach. 
          • Replacing discards the company’s app to use pre-built software from a third-party vendor.
