IGNITE – Powered by the AWS Migration Acceleration Program

The AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP) is a cloud migration program based on AWS’ experience migrating thousands of enterprise customers to the cloud. The program packages best practices, expertise, tooling, and financial incentives to make cloud adoption easier, allowing you to gain the benefits of Cloud sooner.

IGNITE is designed to meet you where you are, and accelerate where you want to go. Our proprietary tooling rapidly assesses your current state, while our expert team of AWS Solution Architects work backwards from your desired future state. The result is a comprehensive business case, a full technical delivery plan, and brilliant execution that ensures your cloud goals are met.

Through a phased approach, Devoteam will guide you through the complexities of cloud migrations by:

Evaluating your existing on-premises infrastructure
Creating TCO forecasts and a supporting business case
Establishing a Landing Zone to effectively govern workloads on AWS and migrating pilot workloads
And finally migrating at scale and modernising workloads to take full advantage of the benefits of running on AWS.

Migration Acceleration Program Overview

AWS MAP follows a 3-phase approach: Assess, Mobilise, and Migrate & Modernise, with targeted goals and deliverables at each stage:

Phase 1: Assess

Analyse current IT environment and evaluate cloud readiness
Perform Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) analysis and business case development
Identify technical gaps and skill shortages using AWS Cloud Adoption Framework

Phase 2: Mobilise

Build operational foundation by establishing AWS Landing Zones and governance
Address capability gaps through team training and AWS certifications
Execute proof-of-concept projects to validate migration strategies

Phase 3: Migrate & Modernise

Execute large-scale migration using AWS native tools and services
Transition workloads with AWS Migration Hub, Application Migration Service, and Database Migration Service
Modernise applications with cloud-native solutions (Lambda, RDS, containers) for enhanced agility and scalability

The Benefits

Cost Optimisation

By migrating legacy applications to the cloud, customers can achieve an average of 31% infrastructure savings.

Operational Resilience

Customers who have migrated to AWS from on-premises environments have experienced a 69% reduction in unplanned downtime.

Business Agility

MAP helps organisations accelerate innovation by systematically retiring technical debt and reducing the time it takes to deploy new features. Customers report a 62% efficiency gain in their IT infrastructure management after migrating to AWS.

Staff Productivity

By freeing teams from the burden of managing on-premises infrastructure, MAP enables a shift in focus from day-to-day administrative tasks to strategic, value-add work that differentiates the business.

MAP evaluation phase is very educational for the teams. It provides an opportunity to effectively structure the project while ensuring that no aspect is overlooked. Furthermore, it allows for establishing an accurate and realistic budget, a crucial element for migrations at scale.
