Google Cloud Migration Services
Migrate to VMs. Cloud SQL. BigQuery. Anthos. GKE. Agent-based replication moves workloads as-is. Modernise later. 500+ migrations, 0 data loss, 30-40% typical cost savings.
What kills most GCP projects.
Teams assume GCP means refactoring to GKE or Cloud Run. Migrate to VMs (M4C) moves workloads as-is — you modernise after the bill starts running, not before.
Sustained-use discounts and Committed Use Discounts apply automatically on GCE. Our FinOps review rightsizes and commits — typical clients see 30-40% savings.
Continuous replication via Migrate to VMs. Final cutover window off-hours, delta sync handles last writes, rollback one-click.
For massive datasets Transfer Appliance and Storage Transfer Service move petabytes without saturating production network. BigQuery Transfer for analytics workloads.
Google Cloud, delivered.
Migrate to VMs (M4C)
Agent-based replication from VMware, AWS, Azure, or bare metal to Compute Engine. No rewrite required. Non-disruptive test migrations before production cutover.
Cloud SQL & BigQuery
SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle move to Cloud SQL or AlloyDB. Analytics workloads lift to BigQuery with Database Migration Service and Data Transfer Service.
GKE container migration
Refactor legacy Java, .NET, or Python apps into GKE Standard or Autopilot. Config Connector for GitOps. Binary Authorization for supply-chain integrity.
Landing zone + IAM
Organization hierarchy, Shared VPC, folder structure, IAM roles, Cloud Identity, security baseline (Cloud Armor, Cloud KMS, VPC Service Controls) ready day one.
Anthos hybrid & multi-cloud
Keep critical workloads on-prem or in AWS/Azure while running the control plane in GCP. Unified policy and observability via Anthos Config Management.
FinOps & cost optimization
Committed Use Discounts, sustained-use analysis, rightsizing recommendations, BigQuery slot reservations. Most clients see 30-40% savings vs on-prem compute.
Four phases. GCP-certified team.
Assess
Week 0-1 · Google Cloud migration assessment, dependency map, workload-to-service mapping, fixed-price SOW.
Setup
Week 1-2 · Projects, VPC, IAM, Cloud Identity configured. Landing zone hardened with Cloud Armor, KMS, VPC-SC.
Migrate
Week 2+ · Migrate to VMs replication, DMS for databases, pilot wave (5-10 VMs), production wave cutover off-hours.
Optimize
Hypercare + 30 days · Committed Use Discount planning, rightsizing, monitoring with Cloud Operations, admin handover.
Fixed-fee GCP packages.
Per-VM alternative: $250 basic / $500 standard / $1,000+ premium. BigQuery, Anthos, and GKE modernization priced separately.
“Migrated 70+ VMs and our analytics warehouse to Google Cloud. Migrate to VMs did the lift-and-shift, BigQuery replaced our on-prem data warehouse. Sustained-use and Committed Use Discounts saved us 38% vs the old colo bill. No application rewrite required.”
