Legacy SQL Server environments often come with high licensing costs, performance constraints, and operational complexity. Modernising SQL Server workloads on AWS offers a pathway to scalability, flexibility, and cost efficiency. AWS provides a range of managed database services that allow businesses to offload undifferentiated heavy lifting and focus on innovation.

Migrating SQL Server workloads to AWS helps businesses reduce licensing costs, enhance performance, and streamline operations with managed database services like Amazon RDS for SQL Server and Amazon Aurora. Explore how AWS enables SQL Server Workload Modernisation.
