Migration & Modernization

Why the modernization era’s biggest governance challenge is the one your security team cannot see, and how to solve it on AWS.  Your company is already running Shadow AI. Somewhere in your organization this week, an employee is pasting something they should not into an AI tool you have not approved. They are trying to […]

vSphere 8 reaches End of General Support on October 11, 2027 – a deadline for every VMware customer. This blog gives AWS Partners and customers a licensing-accurate framework to turn the Broadcom VCF renewal into a self-funding migration to AWS, with a real 1,247 VM customer engagement that delivered 56% annual savings.

Most enterprise engineering organizations have deployed AI tooling broadly across teams. The per-team productivity gains are real. But end-to-end improvement hasn’t followed. Backlogs aren’t shrinking. Cycle times haven’t compressed. Tech debt is still growing. The tools aren’t broken. The problem is structural: each team accelerated independently, and the spaces between them are now the entire […]

Increasing your cluster density by using Memory Tiering within the Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) can help drive down the costs of your AWS infrastructure. Amazon EVS now supports VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) 9.0 and 9.1 . In VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) 9.0 Memory Tiering was introduced, which is a new feature within ESX […]

Many organizations run business-critical workloads on VMware, and most know that a single outage can disrupt operations, impact customers, and put revenue and reputation at risk. Disaster recovery (DR) is the solution: a secondary environment ready to take over when the primary site goes down. But building one has traditionally meant heavy upfront investment, long […]

The Modernization Challenge Mainframe modernization projects often stall for the same reason; teams cannot capture what the legacy application does with enough precision to rebuild it confidently. The business logic running these applications is sound, it has processed millions of transactions daily for decades. But the applications themselves were written for a different era. They […]

Introduction Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) now supports NSX Federation, giving you a powerful new option for enterprise-scale networking, disaster recovery, and multi-site networking when running VMware workloads on AWS. NSX Federation is a VMware networking capability that connects multiple NSX environments under a single Global Manager control plane. It extends overlay networking, security […]

As organizations migrate to AWS at scale, connecting migrated instances to their new storage is a common bottleneck. When workloads move from on-premises NFS servers to Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP, teams often mount file systems by hand, minutes per instance that add up to weeks across hundreds or thousands of servers. This solution combines […]

Every domain in a large-scale migration has tools. The network still has people: a handful of them, overbooked, carrying decades of accumulated decisions in their heads. That has just changed. It starts with the network When approaching a large-scale migration to the cloud, nothing moves until the network is ready. Not the database. Not the application. Not […]

Introduction In this blog post, we cover the post-cutover phase of an Oracle-to-PostgreSQL migration on Amazon Web Services (AWS), demonstrating how to transform a functional PostgreSQL system into an operationally excellent one. We walk through immediate validation, comprehensive observability, systematic performance optimization, disaster recovery validation, Oracle decommissioning, and the operational excellence foundation, including the continuous […]
