We are a global team of seasoned cloud migration and DevSecOps experts. We are united on a mission to make the journey to the cloud and its effective management afterwards simple, fast, secure and cost-effective for all companies worldwide. Our experts have lived through all the challenges while previously working as migration leads and senior architects at IT leaders like Hewlett Packard Enterprise, DXC Technology, KPMG, Atos, T-Systems and others. Over the last 14+ years, they have successfully migrated over 300k workloads for large organisations to all major clouds with projects typically being in the 1,000 – 10,000+ servers range.
At Smart Migrator, we passionately believe that the power of the cloud should be accessible to everyone globally – from start-ups to large organisations. Everyone also deserves a painless and cost-effective experience. At a time when a rising global talent shortage, high complexity and cost are limiting mass-scale cloud adoption, we believe the future is in automation and AI. We are innovating to revolutionise the legacy, error-prone, manual process, remove the barriers to entry and make your experience seamless.

What ‘autonomous’ really means
You have likely heard about autonomous (or driverless) vehicles. The ability of vehicles to constantly make smart decisions that mimic those of humans. This is being made possible through the power of AI. Autonomous takes automated to the next level. Automated means that certain tasks are performed automatically based on certain criteria set by people. On the other hand, autonomous uses the power of AI to go a step further, learning from the experience of every case and making smart decisions that go beyond the limitations of automation. And it gets smarter over time.
What does this mean for cloud? Traditionally, cloud migration and management have been very complex and expensive. They have been mostly manual and prone to many costly errors. Innovation has been narrowly focused which means you need many tools and advanced specialist skills – very costly and inconvenient.
We are creating an autonomous experience that migrates your servers to the cloud automatically. Afterwards, it does much more than the usual cloud maintenance. It continuously optimises your infrastructure, assessing internally and also against the latest from all major public clouds. Smart AI algorithms constantly check for possible improvements in cost, resilience, security and more. Our platform generates smart recommendations that benefit you, including switching workloads across clouds. And you have complete control. You can micromanage it (approving all changes and recommendations) or not (giving it autonomy) as you want.
This is true smart intelligence that gives you the power and autonomy to make smart decisions. AI intelligence based on facts and industry best practices that, unlike humans, gets it right every time. A platform that constantly gets smarter and pushes efficiency beyond human abilities.
What makes our platform unique
Security is in our DNA
We are obsessed with security because we know you are too. Our platform is engineered by design to be secure. It has a clever architecture that needs no access to your servers and collects no sensitive data. It is securely hosted on AWS – the leading global cloud that has some of the most secure datacentres on the planet. AWS also offers industry-leading cloud security measures, including advanced encryption and intrusion prevention. Our ‘security-first’ commitment covers everything we do – our platform, service delivery, data management, software development and internal operations. We are Cyber Essentials Plus and IASME Governance certified. We are working towards ISO 27001 which will be followed by 27017, 27018, 27701, 22301, SOC 2 and CSA STAR. This is security governance that many large organisations do not have. That’s our commitment to security.
Our progress – what we can do today
We hope that you are excited about our vision. Making it a reality will take years of hard work and very smart people. Let’s talk about what we can do for you today.
Fully automated cloud migration – operational for AWS
We have started with fully automating cloud migration as this is a critical element of our vision. Our current platform (v.1.2) automatically migrates Linux OS servers to AWS as a lift-and-shift approach (exact copy). It works for RedHat, Ubuntu and CentOS distributions (and soon SUSE Linux Enterprise). Afterwards, our team steps in to fully optimise your cloud environment, ensuring cost-effectiveness, resilience and security. We can then offer you our SLA-backed management service to continuously optimise and manage your cloud environment.
Of course, there are many migration scenarios. To cover the limitations of our current platform, our expert team can fill the gaps and complete all other requirements for your case in a semi-automated way. We cover any scenarios – from lift-and-shift of any OS to complex re-platforming and re-factoring to any major public cloud. We combine our platform with the extensive capabilities of our expert cloud migration team. And you still benefit from up to 5x lower cost and 5x quicker migration than most managed consultancies. See the diagram below showing our process.
Semi-automated cloud management
We can offer you a comprehensive SLA-backed cloud management service that gives you top-level expertise in an affordable subscription. We take care of everything, utilising all native automation available in the cloud such as autoscaling based on real-time demand. We are currently creating a dashboard experience that enables you to connect and monitor your cloud infrastructure and make changes in a simple way. We are making the experience simple so you don’t have to learn and navigate the complex AWS interface which does not show everything in one place. Visibility made simple 24/7. You can rely on an experienced partner to continuously look after and improve your cloud, while you focus on accelerating your business growth.
Your journey to the cloud
We guarantee successful delivery
We are committed to giving you the highest quality service. We deliver our expertise in a friendly and informal but professional manner. We guarantee successful delivery of your cloud migration project or you will get your money back (subject to our terms and conditions).
We appreciate that no software is perfect in the early days (hey, even the big names often make a mess with releases). However, we believe that the service you receive should always be perfect. If a technical issue occurs and can’t be fixed quickly, our expert team will step in at no extra cost. We will ensure that your migration is completed successfully and you are completely happy with it.
