All Case StudiesOur cloud migration clients cut over without the 2am rollback metrics
Two recent cloud migration engagements. Full workload and cost figures under MNDA; wave plan walkthrough on the scoping call.
Cloud and Data engagement,
Cloud migration program lead
Dcrayon mapped every workload to a rehost or replatform decision before we opened Azure Migrate. Cutover ran off a tested rollback plan, and finance got a per-workload cost line they could sign off.
Cloud Migration engagement: dependency mapping, wave planning through AWS Application Migration Service, and a rehearsed cutover with rollback checkpoints. Either side can pause at any wave boundary.
Read Cloud and Data engagement's Case StudyMid-market cloud and data brand,
Cloud migration and landing zone program
Our migration had stalled on a tangle of undocumented dependencies. Dcrayon ran a discovery pass, grouped workloads into waves, and moved the first low-risk wave with no unplanned downtime.
Cloud Migration engagement paired with landing zone setup and database moves through managed replication. A discovery audit in the opening phase set the workload inventory and baseline.
Read Mid-market cloud and data brand's Case StudyWhy choose Dcrayon for Cloud Migration
Since 2016, Dcrayon has delivered 200+ solutions engagements and runs 60+ active retainers, working from our Delhi headquarters and Sheridan, Wyoming office. Our architects hold AWS, Azure, and GCP certifications, backed by CEH, OSCP, and CISSP holders on staff. AI-first since the 2024 pivot.
A cloud architect who has done the cutover
No trainees rehearsing on your production estate. The architect who maps your dependencies also runs the cutover.
A readiness Score before you commit
A written diagnostic and fixed estimate up front, so you approve a scope with the disposition of every workload already mapped.
Automated discovery, not spreadsheets
Agentless tools inventory servers, map traffic between them, and model run costs, so wave planning rests on data, not guesswork.
A monthly bill you can defend
A monthly readout in cost per workload and reserved-capacity coverage, plain enough for finance to sign off without a translator.
HOW WE WORK
How Dcrayon works with the brands we partner with

What a migration actually covers
Three stages, planned by the 6 Rs rather than moved wholesale and repaired later.
Step 1: Discovery and dependency mapping
Agentless inventory Azure Migrate and AWS Migration Hub inventory your servers and map the traffic between them, so nothing moves without its dependencies.
Step 2: Wave planning and cutover
Rehost, replatform, refactor Each workload gets an R and a wave, with a written cutover runbook and a rollback path agreed before the weekend it happens.
Step 3: Right-sizing after landing
Where the savings are Instances sized against observed load once you are running, not against the specification of the hardware you left behind.
Technical migration controls we build into every move
What we wire into every Dcrayon cloud migration by default
Three Dcrayon methods we run on every cloud migration
Score, Sequence, and Repair. The readiness diagnostic, the wave-by-wave playbook, and the toolkit that keeps run-costs honest after cutover.
Growth Intelligence (cloud migration axis)
A 150-point migration readiness review across five areas: workload and database dependency mapping, right-sizing and TCO, landing zone and network design, IAM and encryption posture, and cutover runbooks. Free on every proposal call.
Dcrayon Growth Engine (cloud migration sequencing)
The playbook that orders waves from low-risk workloads to your hardest database moves, run through AWS DMS or Azure Database Migration Service, each tied to a metric you pick.
Dcrayon AI (cloud migration toolkit)
Internal toolkit that runs discovery, maps dependencies, and builds a prioritized 6 Rs disposition plan your CFO can budget against.
How a Dcrayon cloud migration runs
Three repeatable plays that move workloads with less risk and a lower run-rate each cycle.
Step 1: Score
A free Growth Intelligence readout on your estate in one business day. We run assessments with tools like Azure Migrate, map dependencies, and sort each app into rehost, replatform, or refactor. You get one 0 to 100 number and the gap list, no commitment.
Step 2: Plan
A written 90-day cloud migration plan tied to one number you pick, like monthly cloud spend or cutover downtime. A senior architect designs the landing zone and wave sequence, including any database migration path. Either side can stop, and there is no annual lock-in.
Step 3: Harden
A weekly working session with your architect and a monthly cost-and-progress report your finance team can follow. Migration runs in waves: the pilot workload proves the pattern, then each later wave reuses the same landing zone and pipelines.

WHY DCRAYON
Why teams run the cutover with us
Four commitments that matter most on the weekend it goes live.
A rollback path, agreed in writing
Every wave has a documented way back before it has a go-live date. A cutover should be a reversible decision.
The architect has done it before
No trainees rehearsing on your production estate. The architect who maps your dependencies runs the cutover.
Run cost modelled before you move
You see the projected monthly bill per workload during planning, so the business case survives contact with the invoice.
Discovery by tooling, not spreadsheets
Agentless scans build the inventory and the traffic map, which is how the dependency nobody remembered gets found.
Real client work, with the receipts
Cloud Migration FAQs
It begins with discovery: an agentless inventory, dependency mapping, and a 6 Rs disposition per workload. That readout becomes the wave plan you approve before any cutover.
Both. Some clients hand us the whole cloud and data team; others use us as senior architect plus escalation for their own engineers. We scope per account.
Most cloud migration engagements start at Rs 4 to 8 lakhs per month in India, or USD 6 to 15 thousand per month globally. Audit and discovery-only work starts lower.
