AWS Consulting Services for Architecture, Cost & Migration
AWS consulting for architecture and Well-Architected reviews, cost optimisation, FinOps and migration. Plan changes around workload evidence and recovery needs.
What this service is for
Ampity helps teams plan and execute AWS changes when the work involves more than moving infrastructure. The engagement connects workload discovery, landing-zone decisions, application and data migration, deployment controls, observability, recovery and cost ownership. Recommendations follow the existing system and business constraints. They are not based on a default migration pattern or an assumption that every workload should be rebuilt.
Typical situations
- A hosting or data-center deadline requires a defensible AWS migration sequence.
- An earlier lift-and-shift move increased cost or operating complexity.
- AWS accounts, networking, identity or delivery pipelines have grown without clear ownership.
- A production workload needs modernization without a high-risk all-at-once rewrite.
Included
- Workload, dependency, data and operational discovery
- AWS account, identity, network and landing-zone requirements
- Rehost, replatform, refactor and retain decisions by workload
- Migration waves, cutover evidence and rollback design
- Infrastructure as code, CI/CD, observability and recovery controls
- Post-migration reliability and cost review
What you receive
- Current-state workload and dependency inventory
- AWS target architecture and decision record
- Migration-wave plan with acceptance and rollback criteria
- Infrastructure, deployment and observability implementation
- Recovery rehearsal and operational handover evidence
- Post-migration reliability and cost findings
Which AWS change does your workload need?
AWS consulting starts with the decision you need to make. A migration deadline, an architecture concern, and a rising bill require different evidence and different acceptance checks.
AWS cloud migration consulting
Map application dependencies, data volumes, identity, connectivity, and operational ownership before choosing a migration wave. For each workload, compare retaining, rehosting, replatforming, and refactoring. Rehearse data reconciliation, traffic cutover, and rollback before changing the production path.
Cloud migration and modernizationAWS architecture review
A review examines whether workload boundaries, permissions, recovery, scaling, and deployment controls fit the actual constraints. A Well-Architected checklist helps structure questions; evidence from configuration, incidents, and tests establishes which risks deserve action. Architecture assessment can happen before or after a migration.
Architecture assessment and designAWS cost audit and FinOps
Separate workload growth from rate changes, unused capacity, storage retention, data transfer, and shared costs. Establish who owns each cost before recommending commitments or capacity reductions. An AWS cost audit produces a prioritized investigation; optimization work validates the effect on reliability and unit cost.

AWS credentials for migration and modernization
Ampity is an AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner. The tier reflects company-level AWS experience and capability; the Service Delivery designations below are separate, service-specific credentials.
Explore our AWS delivery practiceAWS Service Delivery specializations
Choose the expertise that matches your workload. These designations recognize delivery experience with specific AWS services. They do not mean that every system needs those services or that a badge guarantees a project outcome.
Amazon ECS Delivery
Container applications moving into production
Relevant when your application needs an ECS deployment model, including workloads on AWS Fargate. The work connects task sizing, service scaling, deployment health, identity and network boundaries to your application's operating needs.
Agree deployment checks, rollback behavior, observability and ownership before cutover.

Database migrations with a recovery plan
Relevant when a relational database needs migration or modernization on Amazon RDS. Assess engine compatibility, data integrity, connection behavior, backup and recovery, availability requirements and query performance before changing the production path.
Define data reconciliation, restore checks and workload-specific acceptance criteria.

Partner file exchange with controlled access
Relevant when partners or business units exchange files through managed transfer workflows. Design identity, storage access, encryption, audit trails and account boundaries around who may send, receive and process each file.
Test permissions, transfer failure handling and the handover to downstream processing.

What AWS credentials does Ampity hold?
Ampity is an AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner and holds Amazon ECS Delivery, Amazon RDS Delivery and AWS Transfer Family Delivery designations. Partner tier is a company-level credential; Service Delivery designations are specific to the named AWS services.
Does an AWS partner badge guarantee my migration outcome?
No. Credentials help you evaluate relevant experience. Your engagement still needs workload-specific architecture decisions, an agreed scope, acceptance checks, rollback controls and operational ownership.
Does every AWS migration require application modernization?
No. Some workloads should be rehosted, some replatformed, some refactored and some retained. The decision depends on constraints, change value, operating risk and the cost of carrying the current design.
Can Ampity work inside an existing AWS organization?
Yes. The work can begin within the current account, identity, network and governance model. Any proposed structural change is documented with its trade-offs and migration impact.
How is a production cutover accepted?
The parties agree workload-specific checks for functionality, data integrity, service health, security controls, recovery and ownership. The exact thresholds belong in the engagement scope.
What does an AWS Well-Architected review include?
It assesses your workloads against the six AWS Well-Architected pillars: operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, cost optimisation and sustainability. You receive prioritised findings with the effort, risk and impact of each fix.
How can we reduce our AWS bill without hurting performance?
Start with an AWS cost audit: right-size compute, remove idle resources, review storage tiers and data transfer, and match commitments such as Savings Plans to steady usage. FinOps practices then keep spend visible to the teams that create it.
