What are cloud migration and FinOps services?
Cloud migration moves applications, data and infrastructure from on-premise servers, or from one cloud to another, in planned waves. FinOps is the practice of managing cloud spend with visibility, budgets and optimisation. Stack18 assesses your estate, plans migration waves with rollback steps, performs the move and then reduces and governs the monthly bill.

Cloud Migration & FinOps questions.
Which cloud should we choose: AWS, Azure or Google Cloud?
The right one depends on your applications, skills, compliance needs and commercial terms. We compare them against your workloads in the assessment, and we are not a reseller tied to one provider.
How do you avoid downtime during migration?
We plan cutovers by workload, rehearse them, keep rollback steps ready and schedule moves in agreed windows. Some systems can move with no visible downtime, and the plan shows which.
How much can we save on cloud costs?
It depends on how the environment is run today. We identify specific savings in the assessment and track them against a baseline, rather than promising a percentage in advance.
Is cloud migration always the right answer?
No. Some workloads are cheaper or safer where they are. The assessment recommends what to move, what to keep and what to retire.
What is the difference between this and Cloud & DevOps?
This service is for moving to the cloud and controlling its cost. Cloud & DevOps covers ongoing platform engineering such as pipelines, infrastructure as code and observability. Many clients use both, one after the other.
