Migrate Windows 2008 workloads into AWS for free!

Friday 20th December 2019

Are you still running Windows 2008 workloads? Are you facing the challenge of a costly or resource-intensive upgrade project, or spending valuable budget on expensive extended support options?

Many organisations struggle with migrating their legacy applications due to tight dependencies on older, unsupported operating systems (OS), limited in-house expertise, and/or missing access to installation media or source code. Moreover, getting extended support for these applications does not resolve the inevitable end of support challenge.

What is it?

The AWS End-of-Support Migration Program (EMP) for Windows Server enables Bytes to migrate your legacy applications from Windows Server 2003, 2008, and 2008 R2 without any refactoring. The AWS EMP technology decouples the applications from the underlying OS, enabling Bytes to migrate your critical applications to a newer, supported version of Windows Server on AWS.

Where do I start?

As an Advanced Partner, Bytes can access the newly launched AWS funding program, enabling us to fully fund the migration from discovery through to implementation
