Cloud Migration in Braunschweig – reliably from Hamburg
Braunschweig is known for research (TU, DLR, PTB) and automotive (Volkswagen suppliers) – tech affinity is high, and cloud maturity is rapidly increasing.
We plan and implement cloud migrations without downtime. Lift-and-Shift, Re-Platforming, or Cloud-Native Refactoring—adapted to the respective starting situation.
For clients in Braunschweig, this means specifically: initial consultation within 48 hours, transparent effort estimation, regular on-site meetings as needed, and a dedicated engineering partner throughout the entire project duration. No hidden subcontracting, no junior consultant hiding places.

Cloud Migration – for companies in Braunschweig
Out of the data center, into the cloud — zero downtime, zero data loss. We migrate your systems strategically and keep them running afterward.
Full service descriptionIn Numbers: A typical cloud migration for a medium-sized company with 10-30 servers takes 4-12 weeks, costs between €30,000 and €150,000, and saves between 20% and 40% of infrastructure costs after 12-18 months. The most common AWS region for companies from Braunschweig is eu-central-1 (Frankfurt) – GDPR-compliant and with the lowest latency for Northern Germany.

Frequently asked questions about Cloud Migration in Braunschweig
For a typical medium-sized company with 10-30 servers, we estimate a project duration of 4-12 weeks. Lift-and-Shift migrations can be completed in 4-6 weeks, while Re-Platforming or Cloud-Native Refactoring usually requires about 8-12 weeks. Before each project, we conduct a 1-2 day assessment to provide a reliable time estimate.
For companies in Braunschweig and across Northern Germany, we typically recommend eu-central-1 (Frankfurt) as the primary region. It is GDPR-compliant, has the lowest latency for DACH, and supports all relevant AWS services. For particularly sovereignty-sensitive workloads (government, healthcare), we evaluate eu-central-2 (Zurich) or the AWS European Sovereign Cloud (available from 2026).
The migration costs themselves typically range for medium-sized companies between 30,000 and 150,000 EUR – heavily dependent on complexity, the portion of re-platforming, and the number of workloads. Ongoing cloud costs vary greatly; more important than the list price are FinOps measures (Reserved Instances, Right-Sizing, Auto-Scaling), which typically save 20-40% of cloud costs.
