VMware Migration to AWS

Orion’s VMware Migration Services provide a fully managed, end-to-end solution for migrating and modernizing VMware workloads on AWS. Our offering includes all necessary VMware licenses—vSphere, vSAN, NSX-T, and HCX—alongside a structured migration framework designed to minimize risk, accelerate timelines, and unlock the benefits of AWS cloud-native services.

We follow a four-phase methodology to ensure a seamless and cost-effective transition:

1. Discover (~2 weeks)

• Rapid and automated discovery of existing workloads
• Application and infrastructure inventory
• Dependency mapping and hands-on workshops

2. Envision (~4–6 weeks)

• Readiness assessments and 6R analysis
• Migration Strategy
• Wave planning, business case development, and TCO analysis
• Governance models and identification of POC candidates

3. Migrate (~3–6 months)

• Cloud landing zone and on-prem infrastructure setup
• Security, compliance, and automation patterns
• Migration execution, cutover, and decommissioning

4. Evolve (Ongoing Managed Services)

• 24x7 operations support, including incident and problem management
• Ongoing CloudOps and InfraOps
• Continuous optimization and cost governance

Orion brings deep expertise in VMware and AWS, leveraging AWS funding programs and best practices to reduce costs and accelerate outcomes. Whether you are rehosting, replatforming, or refactoring your VMware workloads, our managed services help you modernize with confidence.
