The programme:

• Migration of approximately 200 Linux VMs from VMware to AWS across 50 VLANs.
• Modernisation of approximately 30 Legacy Ingres database and OpenROAD applications.
• Design and delivery of a secure, private AWS serverless architecture.
• Establishing a repeatable migration and modernisation approach.

Key experience required:
