Cloud Migration
A server in a closet is a single point of failure with a power bill. We move your on-premises applications and servers to Amazon Web Services — planned around your calendar, tested before cutover and backed by an AWS Certified team.
Why firms move off the closet
An on-premises server needs a room, cooling, a battery backup, a spare drive on a shelf and someone to notice when it fails at 2 a.m. In AWS you get the same applications with redundant storage, tested snapshots and remote access that does not depend on a router in your office staying up through a storm.
What actually moves
Practice management and tax software, document management, file shares, line-of-business databases, the domain controller and your phone system if it is hosted locally. We inventory every application and its dependencies first, then move them in groups — starting with the ones that carry the least risk to a Monday morning.
No big-bang cutover
We run the new environment alongside the old one, test with real users on real matters, and cut over on a weekend you choose. Rollback is written down before we start, and every step is rehearsed. Most firms of ten to fifty staff are fully off the local server inside a month, with no lost work days.
Certified, and accountable after the move
RockHill Cyber is AWS Certified, so the design, the identity model, the encryption and the backups are built the way AWS recommends rather than assembled from guesswork. We stay on the account afterwards — monitoring, patching, cost review and the annual security evidence your insurer and your clients ask for.
Inventory
Document every application, server, integration and data store, and flag the ones with a vendor or compliance constraint that shapes the move.
Pilot
Build the AWS environment, migrate a low-risk group first, and test access, performance and printing with the people who use them daily.
Cut over
Migrate in planned waves with a rehearsed rollback, then decommission the old hardware and hand you the cost and security report.
