Charon AWS Cloud Migration Solution

Companies still rely on mission-critical applications running on Sun SPARC, Alpha, or other legacy systems like PDP, VAX, or HP 3000. A roadblock in your digital transformation, a drain on IT budgets, a demand on scarce skills, and they chain you to aging infrastructure. Fortunately, they can be re-hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) in a matter of days using cross-platform hypervisors from Stromasys, an AWS Partner Network (APN) Standard Technology Partner. AWS Cloud Migration Benefits include:

Costs are optimized moving to an AWS pay-as-you-go consumption model.
Application hardware capacity becomes flexible with possible adjustments in minutes.
AWS CPU fast-clock speeds deliver enhanced performance for applications.
Enterprises or organizations can now include legacy systems in their AWS mass migration plans.
The application is moved unchanged to AWS transparently to end-users avoiding re-certification and re-training.
New AWS high availability schemes and disaster recovery best practices become available to the application and enhance the customer's experience.
AWS automation accelerates operations and allows starting or stopping legacy environments in minutes possibly within a CI/CD pipeline.
