VM to Cloud Migration Services for Modern, Scalable Infrastructure

We migrate virtual machines from on-premises or legacy hosting into cloud infrastructure — right-sizing resources and validating every workload along the way.

Move Off Aging VM Infrastructure, Onto Infrastructure That Scales

On-premises VMs are expensive to maintain and hard to scale. We migrate VM-based workloads into cloud infrastructure — AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud — right-sizing resources so you are not just paying cloud prices for the same over-provisioned setup.

Built for Excellence

Why Choose NIMU for VM to Cloud Migration

We combine deep technical expertise with a focus on performance, security, and long-term reliability.

Workload Assessment

Reviewing actual VM resource usage before choosing cloud sizing.

Right-Sizing

Cloud instances matched to real usage, not just a like-for-like copy.

Security Reconfiguration

Cloud-native security controls configured rather than replicating old VM setups.

Minimal Downtime

Migration strategies designed to minimise service interruption.

Cost-Aware Migration

Cloud architecture designed with ongoing cost in mind, not just migration speed.

Validated Cutover

Every workload tested on the new cloud infrastructure before final cutover.

What We Migrate, and the Strategies We Consider

What We Migrate

  • Virtual MachinesWindows and Linux VMs, application servers, database servers, and web servers
  • WorkloadsEnterprise applications, web applications, APIs, and internal business systems
  • Supporting ComponentsStorage, networking configuration, security rules, DNS, and dependencies that need to move alongside the VM

Migration Strategies We Consider

Not every VM should be lifted and shifted as-is. We assess which approach fits each workload:

  • RehostMove the VM to cloud infrastructure with minimal changes, when speed matters more than redesign
  • ReplatformAdjust specific components to take advantage of managed cloud services during the move
  • RefactorRedesign the workload for cloud-native architecture when it genuinely benefits performance or cost
  • RetainSome workloads aren't ready to move yet — we'll say so rather than migrating everything by default
  • RetireIdentify VMs that are no longer needed and can be safely decommissioned instead of migrated
Our Capabilities

What We Deliver

A comprehensive suite of capabilities packaged into every engagement.

01

VM Assessment & Sizing

Analyzing current VM resource usage to right-size cloud instances.

02

Cloud Migration Execution

Migrating VM workloads to AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud infrastructure.

03

Cloud-Native Reconfiguration

Reconfiguring security and networking using cloud-native controls.

04

Post-Migration Optimization

Right-sizing and cost tuning after workloads are live in the cloud.

05

Migration Strategy Selection

Matching each VM or workload to the right approach — rehost, replatform, refactor, retain, or retire — rather than a default lift-and-shift for everything.

Our Delivery Process

A proven, transparent process that keeps your project on time and on budget.

1

Workload Assessment

Reviewing VM resource usage and dependencies before migration.

2

Cloud Architecture Design

Designing right-sized cloud infrastructure for each workload.

3

Migration Execution

Migrating VMs with validation at each stage.

4

Optimization & Handover

Post-migration tuning and documentation handover.

VM to Cloud Migration: Frequently Asked Questions

No, we analyze actual resource usage and right-size cloud instances accordingly, since VM allocations are frequently over-provisioned.
We migrate to AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud, recommending the best fit based on your existing ecosystem and requirements.
We reconfigure security using cloud-native controls rather than simply replicating on-premises firewall rules, which are often not directly portable.
With proper planning and parallel validation, downtime is typically limited to a brief, well-tested cutover window.
It depends on the number of VMs, workload complexity, and your target cloud platform — we provide a firm estimate after the assessment rather than a fixed number upfront.
Yes, we work with VMware and other common virtualization platforms — the migration approach focuses on the VM's operating system and workload rather than being tied to one hypervisor.
Yes, we migrate both Windows and Linux virtual machines, adjusting the approach for each operating system's specific requirements.
Yes, we provide post-migration optimization and can continue with ongoing support once the migration is live.
