Comprehensive Migration and Modernization Solutions
Our expert team offers a full spectrum of services to guide your cloud journey.
Cloud Readiness Assessment
We thoroughly evaluate your current IT landscape, identifying opportunities and challenges for cloud migration and modernization.
Migration Strategy Development
We create tailored migration strategies, choosing the most appropriate approaches (rehost, replatform, refactor, etc.) for each of your applications and workloads.
Application Modernization
We transform your legacy applications to cloud-native architectures, leveraging microservices, containers, and serverless computing for enhanced agility and scalability.
Data Migration and Modernization
We securely migrate your data to the cloud and modernize your data architecture to take advantage of cloud-based data services and analytics capabilities.
Infrastructure Modernization
We help you transition from traditional infrastructure to Infrastructure as Code (IaC), enabling more efficient, scalable, and repeatable deployments.
Cloud-Native Development
For applications that need complete rebuilding, we offer cloud-native development services, creating modern applications optimized for cloud environments.
Addressing Key Challenges in Cloud Migration and Modernization
Cloud migration and modernization can be complex processes, presenting several challenges for businesses. At Galekt, we’re adept at navigating these hurdles to ensure a smooth transition to the cloud and effective modernization of your applications.
Legacy System Compatibility
We conduct thorough assessments of your legacy systems and develop tailored migration strategies. This may involve refactoring applications, using containerization, or implementing middleware solutions to ensure compatibility.
Minimising Downtime and Disruption
We employ phased migration approaches and parallel environments to minimise downtime. Our team schedules migrations during off-peak hours and implements robust rollback plans to ensure business continuity.
Data Security and Compliance
We implement end-to-end encryption for data in transit and at rest. Our migration processes adhere to compliance standards, and we conduct security audits at each stage to ensure data protection.
Skills Gap and Change Management
We provide comprehensive training programs for your team and offer ongoing support to build internal cloud capabilities. Our change management approach helps smooth the transition, ensuring staff are prepared and motivated for the new cloud environment.
Cost Management
We conduct detailed cost analyses and provide clear forecasts for migration and operational costs. Our designs incorporate cost optimisation strategies, and we implement monitoring tools to track and manage ongoing cloud expenses.
Application Performance Post-Migration
We conduct thorough performance testing before, during, and after migration. Our team optimises applications for cloud environments, leveraging cloud-native features to enhance performance and scalability.
Our Approach
Ensuring a Smooth Transition to the Cloud
Our migration and modernization process is methodical and tailored to your needs.
1. Discovery and Assessment
We begin with a comprehensive analysis of your current IT ecosystem, identifying dependencies, constraints, and modernization opportunities.
2. Strategy and Planning
Based on the assessment, we develop a detailed migration and modernization strategy, including timelines, resource allocation, and risk mitigation plans.
3. Proof of Concept
We often start with a small-scale migration or modernization project to validate our approach and demonstrate value.
4. Migration Plan Implementation
We carry out the migration using best practices and AWS tools to ensure minimal disruption to your business operations.
5. Application Modernization
We refactor or rebuild applications as needed to take full advantage of cloud-native capabilities.
6. Testing and Optimization
We rigorously test migrated and modernized systems, optimizing for performance, security, and cost-efficiency in the cloud environment.
7. Knowledge Transfer and Support
We provide comprehensive documentation and training to your team, ensuring they can effectively manage and scale the new cloud environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
The timeline varies depending on the complexity and scale of your IT environment. A small to medium-sized business might complete the process in 3-6 months, while larger enterprises could take 12-18 months or more. We often use a phased approach, migrating and modernizing different parts of your IT ecosystem over time to minimise disruption and demonstrate early value.
Security is paramount in our migration process. We use secure data transfer methods, encrypt data in transit and at rest, and implement strict access controls. We also conduct thorough security assessments before, during, and after migration to ensure your data remains protected throughout the process.
While zero-downtime migration isn’t always possible, we strive to minimise disruption to your business operations. We use strategies like parallel environments, incremental data migration, and off-hours cutover to reduce downtime. For critical systems that require continuous availability, we can implement more complex strategies like blue-green deployments.
For legacy applications, we typically recommend one of several approaches based on the specific situation:
- Rehosting (lift-and-shift) for applications that can run as-is in the cloud.
- Replatforming, making minimal changes to take advantage of cloud capabilities.
- Refactoring or rearchitecting for applications that need significant changes to be cloud-optimized.
- Replacing with cloud-native alternatives when modernization isn’t feasible.
We can design and implement hybrid cloud solutions that integrate your on-premises infrastructure with cloud services. This approach allows you to maintain certain systems on-premises while leveraging cloud capabilities where they provide the most value.
