What's inside

A real playbook, not a brochure

Frameworks, decision tables and checklists — the same thinking our AWS-certified engineers use on day one of an engagement, distilled into something you can read in an afternoon.

The 6-chapter outline

What you'll work through

Each chapter is a self-contained step — read it once for the map, keep it open as a working checklist when you migrate.

1

Readiness assessment

Score your estate before you touch it — workload inventory, dependency mapping, application criticality and a readiness scorecard that tells you what's safe to move first.

2

Landing zone & security

The multi-account foundation done right — Control Tower, guardrails, identity, network segmentation and a security baseline you set up once and trust for every workload after.

Migration patterns — the 7 Rs

Retire, retain, rehost, relocate, replatform, repurchase, refactor — a decision table that matches each workload to the right pattern, with the trade-offs spelled out in plain language.

AWS funding you may qualify for

How the AWS partner-funding landscape works — MAP, PoC funding, Well-Architected credits and more — framed as what may be unlocked for your project, with eligibility and amounts set by AWS, never guaranteed.

5

Cost modeling

Build a credible TCO before you commit — sizing, Savings Plans vs On-Demand, data-transfer gotchas, and a model that survives finance review and your first real bill.

Cutover & operations

Land safely and stay there — cutover runbook, rollback plan, hypercare, plus the monitoring, FinOps and Well-Architected rhythm that keeps you healthy in steady state.

Who it's for

Written for the people who own the move

If you're weighing AWS — or already committed and want a sanity check on your plan — this guide is built for you.

CTOs & engineering leaders

Owning the AWS decision and the risk that comes with it — you need a defensible plan, a real cost model, and a clear view of what funding can offset.

Cloud & platform architects

Designing the landing zone and migration waves — you want the 7-Rs decision table, the security baseline and the cutover runbook in one place.

Finance & transformation leads

Signing off on budget and timeline — you need a TCO you can trust and an honest read on the AWS funding that could change the business case.
