Struggling to bridge the gap between your on-premises Microsoft infrastructure and the cloud?
Many businesses face challenges in integrating their existing Windows Server, SQL Server, and .NET applications with modern cloud environments. AWS Hybrid Cloud solutions provide a seamless way to extend your Microsoft workloads to the cloud without disrupting existing operations, enabling you to modernise at your own pace.
The Hybrid Challenge
Legacy Microsoft applications often have dependencies on on-premises infrastructure, making a full cloud migration complex and costly. However, hybrid cloud strategies let you:
- Modernise gradually without downtime.
- Maintain data residency and compliance.
- Extend workloads to the cloud for scalability and innovation.
