FAQ

Website Migrations FAQ

Common questions before starting fixed-scope infrastructure, automation or support work.

Can you plan and carry out production migrations?

Yes. We help with website, server, Docker, cloud, Nextcloud and DNS cutover migrations using a backup-first approach.

What details should we send for a migration quote?

Useful details include source and destination environments, applications, databases and storage involved, acceptable downtime and DNS control, plus the preferred migration window.

How do you reduce downtime risk?

We plan the move, check backups, prepare the destination, test where possible, manage DNS cutover carefully and verify the service after migration.

Can you help if a previous migration went wrong?

Yes. We can review the current state, stabilise the affected services and plan a safer recovery or completion path.

How much do migrations usually cost?

Migration projects usually start from $1,999, with larger moves quoted after scoping.

After the fix

Reduce the chance of the same issue returning.

After a fixed-scope issue is resolved, we can also help with monitoring, backups, restore testing, security hardening or ongoing infrastructure support where it makes sense.
