We bring more to every cloud migration

AI-Accelerated VMware Migrations 

We use AI-powered tooling, including AWS Transform, to rapidly analyse large VMware estates and produce structured, risk-based migration plans. 

Our analysis covers VM inventory, utilisation patterns, OS supportability, Microsoft licensing portability, storage and DR configurations, and network dependencies. This enables smarter workload prioritisation, early risk detection, and more accurate time and effort estimates. It also strengthens both directional and detailed business cases. 

AI is particularly effective in firewall and network rationalisation. We analyse existing rulesets to identify redundancy, remove obsolete policies, and map controls cleanly to AWS-native constructs—avoiding replication of legacy complexity in the target environment. 

The result is faster planning, more predictable execution, and fewer surprises.

You need a partner to support you as you navigate these changes. AWS and Slalom are here to help. Slalom has a proven approach used to successfully complete enterprise-scale data center migrations.

Strategic Collaboration & Funding Support 

Slalom holds a multi-year Strategic Collaboration Agreement with Amazon Web Services, reflecting deep delivery alignment and consistent AWS Partner recognition. 

This partnership enables structured funding options to support VMware-to-AWS migrations, including assessment workshops and proof-of-concept engagements. We help clients access these programs to de-risk decisions, validate architecture, and accelerate execution.

Secure-by-Design Landing Zones 

A successful migration requires a strong cloud foundation. We help organisations uplift existing AWS landing zones or design new ones aligned to enterprise governance and regulatory requirements. 

Our approach embeds security, identity, network segmentation, logging, and cost governance from the outset. We draw on experience designing secure environments, including AWS-validated Trusted Secure Enclave architectures vetted by Amazon Web Services for defence and national security use cases. 

Security and governance are engineered into the platform—not added later. 

 

Proven Experience in High-Stakes Environments 

We deliver VMware migrations for commercial enterprises, including financial services and energy organisations where downtime and compliance risk are material. We also support public sector and social impact organisations, including federal agencies, where governance, auditability, and security standards are stringent. 

In these environments, precision matters. Our approach balances technical execution with business continuity and structured change management.
