1h 45min via ICE/IC from Hamburg Central Station
Oldenburg is a challenging location for migrating business processes to the cloud, given its industry-specific focuses. We are familiar with the local requirements—compliance issues from Lower Saxony, mid-sized company structures, and matured IT landscapes—and deliver reliable implementation from our engineering headquarters in Hamburg.

We plan and implement cloud migrations without downtime. Lift-and-Shift, Re-Platforming, or Cloud-Native Refactoring—tailored to the specific starting situation.

For clients in Oldenburg, this means concretely: 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.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Cloud Migration in Oldenburg

For a typical medium-sized enterprise with 10-30 servers, we estimate a project duration of 4-12 weeks. Lift-and-Shift migrations can be accomplished in 4-6 weeks, while Re-Platforming or Cloud-Native Refactoring usually takes 8-12 weeks. Before each project, we conduct a 1-2 day inventory assessment to provide a reliable time estimate.

For companies from Oldenburg and all of 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 (authorities, healthcare), we consider eu-central-2 (Zurich) or the AWS European Sovereign Cloud (available from 2026).

The migration costs for medium-sized businesses typically range between EUR 30,000 and EUR 150,000 – highly dependent on complexity, the proportion of re-platforming, and the number of workloads. Ongoing cloud costs can vary considerably; more important than the list price are FinOps measures (Reserved Instances, Right-Sizing, Auto-Scaling), which typically save 20-40% of cloud costs.
