Migrate Your Windows Workloads and Modernise Your Applications to Drive Growth and Reduce TCO

The end-of-support for Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2 on October 10 2023 is a stark reminder of the constraints faced by enterprises running Windows workloads on-premise.

If you’re thinking about how to:

  • Extricate yourself from this endless cycle of end-of-support Windows upgrades
  • Achieve cost effectiveness with reduced total cost of ownership and payback periods
  • Strengthen your security and increase reliability

Then maybe it's time to migrate and modernise your Windows workloads on AWS!

Key highlights

Join us at the AWS Windows Migration & Modernisation Day and take the opportunity to:

  • Learn how AWS been helping customers for over 14 years to transform their existing Windows-based workloads
  • Understand how you can benefit from AWS’ complimentary AWS Optimisation & Licensing Assessment (OLA)
  • Hear from our customers on their cloud migration & modernisation stories
  • Consult with our cloud experts and partners
  • Network and learn from other like-minded professionals

Who should attend

Whether you’re a Business or IT Professional, and are just getting started on your migration/modernisation journey or are already in the midst of it, this session will help you to address both your Business and IT needs and challenges.
