Cloud migration is the process of moving applications, data, and IT infrastructure from on-premise servers to cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. For UAE businesses, cloud migration typically reduces infrastructure costs by 30-40%, improves disaster recovery, and enables scalability that on-premise infrastructure can't match.
The challenge isn't the migration itself — it's doing it without disrupting business operations, maintaining security, and optimizing costs in the new environment. A poorly planned migration leads to higher costs, performance issues, and security gaps. A well-planned migration transforms your IT capability.
Bayden provides end-to-end cloud migration services — from initial assessment and cloud provider selection to execution, optimization, and ongoing management. We've migrated workloads ranging from simple web servers to complex multi-tier applications with zero downtime.
For UAE businesses: Azure if you use Microsoft 365 or need UAE data residency (Azure has Dubai and Abu Dhabi data centers). AWS if you need the broadest service catalog or cost-optimized compute. GCP if your primary need is data analytics or ML. We provide a free provider comparison based on your specific workloads.
We use parallel operation — your existing systems continue running while we set up the cloud environment. Data synchronization runs continuously. The actual cutover (DNS switch) happens during a low-traffic window and takes minutes. If anything goes wrong, we switch back immediately using pre-tested rollback procedures.
Azure UAE North (Dubai) and UAE Central (Abu Dhabi) provide in-country data residency. We configure data replication policies to ensure data stays within required boundaries. For government entities, we follow NESA guidelines for cloud adoption.
Typically yes — 30-40% reduction for most workloads. However, cloud costs can exceed on-premise if not managed properly. We include 90 days of cost optimization in every migration engagement, implementing right-sizing, reserved instances, and auto-scaling to ensure your cloud bill stays predictable.
