  • What is cloud migration?

    Cloud migration is the process of moving applications and data from a source to a destination. In the case of public cloud migration, it could be from an on-premise data centre to the public cloud, from a private cloud to the public cloud, or from one public cloud provider to another.


  • Who are the major public cloud providers?

    There are many public cloud providers to choose from. However, major players in this section of the market include Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Oracle Cloud.


  • Which providers do you migrate to?

    At Ascend Cloud Solutions, we're cloud-agnostic. That means we'll get you from A to B regardless of the source and the destination.


  • What are the benefits of migrating to the public cloud?

    In the cloud world, there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Your cloud journey will depend on your business goals and resources. However, there are some general benefits to migrating to the public cloud.


    Public cloud environments tend to be cost-effective, scaleable and secure. They're not ideal for all use cases – but if you're not handling especially sensitive data, they can be just what your company needs.

  • Is there a risk of data loss?

    We understand that data loss is a real concern. However, our five-step migration process ensures that your applications and data are moved in a timely, efficient fashion without anything getting lost along the way.
