Amazon Web Services (AWS) lets Australian organisations work securely from anywhere, on any device. Local AWS servers—available since 2012—also support compliance with Australian data privacy laws.
But moving to AWS isn’t just about security. It can also help your business run more efficiently, improve productivity, and reduce costs. Learn how an AWS migration works and how WOLK can support your business every step of the way.
How Migrating to AWS Increases Productivity
When set up using the AWS Well-Architected Framework, your cloud environment can run faster and respond more easily to change than a traditional on-premises setup. WOLK’s AWS team can guide you through the migration process so your organisation can take advantage of:
- Faster infrastructure development. With AWS, buying or maintaining physical servers on-site is unnecessary. Tools like AWS CloudFormation let you build your infrastructure as code, and Elastic Beanstalk handles app deployment automatically. Your team can scale up or down quickly, without the delays of traditional setups.
- Better collaboration. AWS WorkSpaces gives your team access to cloud-based desktops they can use from anywhere, on almost any device. With AppStream 2.0, you can stream apps directly to users—no local installs needed—so everyone stays connected and productive, no matter where they work.
- More productive dev team. The right cloud environment can give your developers the agility they need to build and maintain software more efficiently. Services like AWS Lambda allow developers to run code without on-premises servers, whereas AWS CodePipeline lets them automate testing, deployments, and new feature updates.
Why an AWS Migration Can Save Your Business Money
AWS is designed to reduce the overall cost of managing your IT systems while maintaining strong security and performance. With the right setup and support, your organisation can save money on:
- Usage costs. AWS uses a pay-as-you-go pricing scheme, meaning you only spend on the computing resources your organisation needs. WOLK’s AWS team can help you find more ways to save by implementing the right services, choosing a compute savings plan, and configuring your environment for cost optimization.
- Server expenditures. Amazon EC2 and S3 services let you launch and work from virtual, cloud-based servers. You don’t need to invest in physical servers or premises with enough space to host them.
- Energy expenses. Running services from AWS data centres in Sydney and Melbourne eliminates the need to invest in climate-controlled server rooms.
- Backup costs. Disaster recovery and archival storage services like AWS Backup and AWS Glacier keep your backup data safe for a fraction of the cost of a physical backup solution.
