AWS to Azure Economics Analysis and 3-week POC

Nous Infosystems Inc.

This POC and Cloud economic assessment uses Nous A2Z™, a full-stack migration accelerator tool to migrate network, storage, database, virtual machines, and application workloads from AWS to Azure.

Nous A2Z™ is an intuitive GUI guided tool that accelerates AWS to Azure migrations of network, storage, database, virtual machines, and application workloads at reduced risks, costs, and complexities. The tool also performs a cloud economics assessment for TCO estimations to compare AWS vs. Azure environments.

The tool enables the user to select the workloads to be migrated to Azure and repeat migrations on multiple Azure subscriptions.

This proof of concept (POC) will demonstrate the tool and migrate selected workloads from AWS to Azure in just 3 weeks.
