Cloud Migration Waves — Rehost & Replatform
Plan the wave. Cut over safely. Land in operations.
Jiva Technologies plans and executes cloud migration waves — landing-zone integration, rehost and replatform execution, data replication, cutover, rollback and hypercare — as a single delivery engagement across Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud.
Applications grouped by dependency, blast radius and business-change constraints, not alphabetical order.
Every wave is dress-rehearsed with documented rollback criteria before production cutover.
Structured hypercare and knowledge transfer to the run team under the agreed support scope.
What we deliver
Landing Zone, Identity & Network Integration
Extend or stand up landing zones on Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud with hub-and-spoke or transit architectures, hybrid connectivity via site-to-site VPN, AWS Direct Connect, Azure ExpressRoute or Google Cloud Interconnect, identity federation and DNS integration.
Rehost (Lift-and-Shift) Migration
Replication-based rehost of virtual machines and applications to cloud compute using platform-native tooling and third-party replication — preserving the runtime stack and shortening the path off legacy infrastructure.
Replatform Migration
Targeted platform changes during migration — moving databases to managed engines, replacing file shares with managed storage, and packaging suitable workloads into containers — where the change pays back inside the operating horizon.
Data Replication & Synchronization
Change Data Capture, block-level replication, storage snapshots and file-sync pipelines to move data alongside applications with minimized downtime and validated data integrity.
Cutover, Validation & Rollback
Dependency-based move groups, cutover runbooks, dress-rehearsal in a staging landing zone, smoke and performance tests, and documented rollback criteria for every wave.
Hypercare & Operational Handover
Post-cutover hypercare, defect triage, monitoring tuning, right-sizing and knowledge transfer to the run team — completed under the agreed scope before the wave is signed off.
Why teams call us
- Every migration treated as lift-and-shift
Blanket rehost misses opportunities where a small replatform change removes ongoing licensing, backup or scaling cost.
- Cutovers without a rehearsed rollback
Waves scheduled without validated rollback criteria create high-impact outage risk and stalled programs.
- Landing zone gaps discovered mid-wave
Missing guardrails, network routing or identity trust surface during cutover rather than during planning, forcing schedule slip.
- No structured hypercare after go-live
Applications go into production before monitoring, right-sizing and run-team handover are complete, leading to preventable incidents.
Our approach
A wave lifecycle that turns each disposition decision into a rehearsed, executable cutover with documented rollback and a controlled handover to operations.
- Assess
Confirm workload disposition, dependencies, cutover constraints and data-movement approach for the next wave.
- Design
Wave design covering landing-zone target, network and identity integration, data replication pattern and cutover runbook.
- Migrate
Execute the wave — replicate, cut over, validate against runbooks and invoke rollback criteria where required.
- Operate & Optimize
Hypercare, right-sizing, reserved-capacity or commitment sign-up and handover to the operational run team under the agreed support scope.
End-to-End IT Integration and Support
From assessment and solution design through implementation, remediation, ongoing support, and lifecycle optimization.
Fix What's Broken — Remediation Sprints
Migration stuck mid-wave, workloads over-provisioned in cloud, DevOps pipelines flaky, or FinOps spend running away? We run fixed-scope remediation sprints against a defined cloud outcome — no open-ended consulting hours.
- Landing-zone, IAM and network baseline fixes; migration wave unblocking
- Right-sizing, reserved/savings-plan coverage and FinOps waste elimination
- CI/CD pipeline hardening, IaC drift correction and release-process cleanup
Support & Maintenance — AMC-Backed
Keep cloud estates efficient and reliable after migration — cost governance, platform hygiene and vendor escalation under a Jiva managed cloud service.
- Managed cloud operations across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud with SLAs
- Continuous FinOps: budget alerts, right-sizing and commitment management
- Patching, backup verification, IaC/DevOps pipeline care and quarterly reviews
