Migration Done Right.
The First Time.

Cloud migrations fail when they are under-planned and over-rushed. BWT uses a structured assessment-first methodology that validates workload readiness, plans the migration in detail, and executes with minimal business disruption.

What We Deliver

End-to-End Cloud Migration Services

Migration Assessment

Application inventory, dependency mapping, and workload classification. Migration candidates identified and ranked by complexity, business value, and migration risk.

Learn More

Migration Planning

Migration waves designed by workload dependency group. Cutover procedures documented and tested. Rollback procedures defined before any workload moves.

Learn More

Lift and Shift Migration

Rehost migrations of workloads to cloud VMs using Azure Migrate, AWS Server Migration Service, or Carbonite Migrate — with minimal architectural change.

Learn More

Re-Platform & Modernization

Workloads modernized for cloud — migrating from on-premises SQL Server to Azure SQL, IIS to Azure App Service, or Oracle to RDS — capturing the cost and performance benefits of managed services.

Learn More

Database Migration

Database migrations using AWS DMS, Azure Database Migration Service, and native database replication. Zero or near-zero downtime migrations for production databases.

Learn More

Post-Migration Optimization

Post-migration performance validation, cost optimization, and security baseline review. Cloud environment optimized for the migrated workloads before handoff to operations.

Technology Counts.
People Matter.

Cloud migration is one of the highest-risk IT projects an organization undertakes. The risks are manageable — but only with the assessment rigor, planning discipline, and execution experience that comes from doing migrations correctly.

How It Works

How BWT Migrates Your Workloads to Cloud

Discovery and planning are 60 percent of a successful cloud migration. Execution is the remaining 40 percent — and it goes smoothly when the planning was thorough.

1
Discovery & Assessment

Application inventory, network dependency mapping, and workload classification completed. Migration readiness assessed by application. Cloud cost model built for target state.

2
Wave Planning & Testing

Migration waves designed by dependency group. Test migrations performed in non-production environments. Cutover procedures documented and rehearsed.

3
Execution & Validation

Production migrations executed per planned cutover windows. Performance validation completed for each workload before go-live. Post-migration optimization delivered.

Why Cloud Migrations Fail
Most Cloud Migration Failures Trace Back to Insufficient Discovery and Planning

Application dependency mapping reveals the hidden relationships between systems that determine migration sequence. Workloads migrated without mapping their dependencies get to the cloud and stop working because the database they depend on is still on-premises. BWT's assessment-first methodology maps every dependency before any workload moves.

Our previous migration vendor started moving workloads before mapping our application dependencies. Three applications went down because their databases were not migrated in the correct sequence. BWT remapped everything and completed the migration correctly.

Migration Expertise Built on Experience

Assessment Before Anything Moves

BWT does not move workloads without a completed assessment. Application inventory, dependency mapping, and cloud cost modeling are prerequisites for every migration engagement.

Documented Cutover and Rollback Procedures

Every migration wave has a documented cutover procedure and a tested rollback procedure. Migrations do not proceed without both in place.

Post-Migration Optimization Included

Cloud cost and performance optimization after migration is included in every BWT migration engagement. Migrated workloads are right-sized and secured before handoff to operations.

The BWT Standard
A failed cloud migration costs more than staying on-premises. Assessment and planning are not optional — they are the investment that makes execution reliable.

BWT has migrated hundreds of workloads to Azure, AWS, and GCP across healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and nonprofits. Assessment-first methodology is standard for every engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Organizations Ask About Cloud Migration

Timeline depends on the number of workloads, their complexity, and the migration approach. Simple lift-and-shift migrations of 10 to 20 servers typically complete in 60 to 90 days. Complex migrations with re-platforming or database modernization take longer. BWT provides a detailed timeline after the migration assessment.
Lift-and-shift (rehosting) moves workloads to cloud VMs with minimal architectural change — fastest but misses some cloud cost benefits. Re-platforming takes advantage of cloud-managed services (Azure SQL vs SQL Server on VM) — takes more time but delivers lower operating costs and reduced management overhead.
Production database migrations are planned with near-zero or zero downtime techniques — log shipping, replication, or database migration service continuous replication. Production cutover is typically a short maintenance window of 30 to 60 minutes after data is fully synchronized.
BWT performs post-migration performance validation before declaring each workload as complete. If performance does not meet baseline, root cause analysis is performed and the workload is optimized before the team signs off. Rollback procedures are maintained throughout the validation period.
BWT builds a cloud cost model as part of the migration assessment — sizing each workload for the cloud environment and modeling the total monthly cost. This model is reviewed and approved before migration execution begins.
