We plan and execute cloud migrations to AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and Alibaba Cloud with a three-phase approach: Assess, Plan, Migrate. We support lift-and-shift, hybrid, and cloud native strategies, with infrastructure managed via Terraform and full artifact ownership delivered to the client. Typical timelines: 1-3 months for lift-and-shift, up to 6-12 months for complex enterprise migrations.
What is Cloud Migration? Cloud Migration is the process of transferring applications, data, and infrastructure from on-premises or legacy cloud environments to modern cloud platforms like AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure. It is not just a technical move, but a strategic opportunity to optimize costs, improve performance, and enable innovation.
Who provides Cloud Migration services in Italy? SparkFabrik is an Italian company based in Milan specialized in cloud migrations. We are a Kubernetes Certified Service Provider and CNCF members. We support migrations to AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and Alibaba Cloud with a structured three-phase approach and infrastructure managed via Terraform.
which plans and executes cloud migrations in a strategic and structured way, ensuring operational continuity and maximizing cloud computing advantages for your organization.
The experience of our Cloud Engineers in designing cloud infrastructures allows us to adopt the best market practices and design your infrastructure with a Cloud Native perspective from day one.
We will define the Cloud Migration Strategy together and execute the migration of each workload to the chosen provider, with transparency on timelines and costs.
We analyze the readiness of each workload for migration, from both technical and business perspectives. The output defines priorities and the optimal path forward.
We define the action plan considering business priorities, operational continuity, and the migration strategy (lift-and-shift, hybrid, or cloud native).
We execute the migration coordinating the process with your IT team. Every artifact produced (Terraform manifests, AMI Packer, etc.) remains your property.
Once the cloud migration is complete, we take over infrastructure management and focus on optimizing processes, applications, and costs.
A team by your side for all maintenance and update activities following best practices in management, security, and optimization, with a continuous improvement approach.
The market context confirms the strategic relevance of this investment: according to Gartner, worldwide public cloud spending is forecast to exceed $720 billion by 2025, confirming cloud migration as a strategic priority for enterprises.

Strategic evaluation and planning
We analyze each workload to define the optimal migration strategy. We conduct technical and business assessments, pricing calculators across multiple vendors, and TCO comparisons to support decisions with concrete data. Our DevOps approach ensures a clear, actionable plan.
Multi-vendor and hybrid strategies
We support migrations to AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and Alibaba Cloud, including multi-cloud and hybrid strategies. We design portable architectures with Kubernetes to avoid vendor lock-in and maximize flexibility.
Declarative and reproducible infrastructure
We manage the entire infrastructure with Terraform, Helm, and IaC tools to ensure reproducible, versioned, and auditable environments. Every artifact produced remains your property. Our Platform Engineering expertise ensures complete automation.
Continuous optimization after migration
After migration, we provide monitoring, patching, performance and cost optimization, and periodic architecture reviews. This can evolve into a Managed Services contract for complete cloud infrastructure management.
Beyond lift-and-shift
To fully leverage cloud potential, a paradigm shift is needed. Our Cloud Native Journey guides organizations toward a complete cloud native approach, with containerization, microservices, and integrated supply chain security.
A structured and transparent process to migrate to the cloud with confidence: from initial assessment to post-migration management.
We analyze each workload from technical and business perspectives. We conduct readiness assessments, pricing calculators, and TCO comparisons to define priorities and the optimal migration strategy for each component.
We define a detailed action plan, considering business priorities and operational continuity. We choose the strategy for each workload: lift-and-shift, hybrid, or full cloud native.
We execute the migration coordinating the process with your IT team. We use Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and incremental migration techniques to ensure continuity and minimize risks.
A proven process to successfully migrate to the cloud
Combined with experienced professionals and a structured process. We believe every partnership starts with a conversation. Bring your infrastructure to the cloud.
Cloud Migration is the process of transferring applications, data, and infrastructure from on-premises or legacy cloud environments to modern cloud platforms. SparkFabrik supports strategic migrations with a Cloud Native approach on major providers: AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and Alibaba Cloud.
Our approach is structured in three main phases:
Assess: analysis of each workload's readiness for migration, from both technical and business perspectives
Plan: definition of the action plan considering business and business continuity priorities
Migrate: execution of the migration with process coordination and IT team support
All artifacts produced (Terraform manifests, AMI Packer, etc.) remain your property.
We support major cloud providers:
Amazon AWS: migration to EC2, EKS, RDS, S3 and all AWS services
Google Cloud Platform: GKE, Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, BigQuery
Microsoft Azure: AKS, Azure Functions, Azure SQL
Alibaba Cloud: solutions for Chinese and Asian markets
We also support multi-cloud and hybrid strategies.
Timelines depend on complexity and chosen strategy:
Simple Lift & Shift: 1-3 months
Migration with refactoring: 3-6 months
Complex enterprise migration: 6-12+ months
We use an incremental approach that minimizes risks and ensures operational continuity.
The two strategies have different objectives:
Lift & Shift: rapid migration with minimal changes, ideal for quickly reducing infrastructure costs
Cloud Native: redesign to fully leverage cloud services (containers, serverless, managed services)
We often recommend a phased approach: initial Lift & Shift followed by progressive modernization through the Cloud Native Journey.
We use proven best practices:
Incremental migration: one workload at a time
Blue-green deployment: switch without downtime
Rollback plan: ability to revert
Thorough testing: pre-cutover validation
Agreed maintenance windows: for critical transitions
After migration we offer:
Infrastructure monitoring and alerting
Continuous performance and cost optimization
Security patching and updates
Periodic architecture review
Support for evolution and scaling
This can evolve into a Managed Services contract for complete management.
Our analysis includes:
Assessment of current workloads and consumption
Pricing calculator on multiple cloud vendors
TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) comparison
Identification of optimizations (reserved instances, spot, etc.)
Migration and training cost estimates
We provide cost transparency to support business decisions.
