Move your Google Cloud Platform virtual machines to AWS EC2 with minimal downtime and preserved application state.
Our migration service transfers Google Compute Engine VMs, attached disks, operating systems, applications, and configurations into a fully operational AWS environment. Ideal for businesses shifting from GCP to AWS for scale, cost optimization, or access to AWS-native services.
Many organizations choose AWS to access a broader set of managed services and a larger partner ecosystem for enterprise workloads. AWS offers extensive regions, mature migration tooling, and the deepest catalogue of managed services available in the market.
AWS offers mature migration tooling including AWS Application Migration Service and CloudEndure — enabling near-zero downtime lift and shift for most GCP workloads.
Google Cloud: Excellent coverage. AWS: Market-leading, very broad service catalogue — the widest selection of managed services across compute, storage, ML, and analytics.
Google Cloud: Strong global footprint. AWS: Extensive region and availability zone coverage — the largest global infrastructure of any cloud provider.
Google Cloud: Advanced — BigQuery, Vertex AI. AWS: Broadest set of managed analytics and AI services including SageMaker, Redshift, Athena, EMR, and more.
Google Cloud: Good enterprise support. AWS: Deep enterprise integrations and partner ecosystem — with the largest marketplace and ISV support.
Google Cloud: Native GCP tools exist. AWS: Mature migration tooling — AWS Application Migration Service and CloudEndure provide automated, near-zero-downtime migration paths.
Google Cloud: Flexible with sustained use discounts. AWS: Flexible with many instance families, Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, and Spot for cost optimization at scale.
We migrate the complete runtime environment so your application works on AWS the same way it did on GCP. The aim is lift and shift where possible, and replatform where it benefits performance or cost.
Each Google Compute Engine VM is converted and launched as an AWS EC2 instance with equivalent resources and OS settings. Your workloads run on AWS with the same configuration as GCP.
Block storage and attached disks are replicated and converted into Amazon EBS volumes or S3 as appropriate for your workload.
Linux and Windows images, installed packages, and runtime environments are preserved and migrated to EC2 without modification.
VPC, subnets, firewall rules, and IP plans are replicated in AWS networking constructs — VPCs, security groups, and route tables.
Application files and databases are replicated using AWS Database Migration Service or other replication tools where appropriate.
Our lift and shift migration workflow securely transfers virtual machines and website workloads from Google Cloud to AWS while preserving operating systems, application environments, and configurations.
Before migration begins, the source GCP instance is reviewed and prepared to ensure a smooth transition to AWS.
A complete snapshot of the GCP instance is taken to safely capture all data, applications, and configurations.
A copy of the instance is adjusted so it can run properly in AWS without issues.
The prepared data is securely moved from GCP to AWS storage.
The transferred data is converted into an AWS machine image and used to launch a new server.
The new AWS server is tested and finalized to ensure everything works as expected.
Migration time varies by VM count, disk sizes, network bandwidth, and application complexity. Below are typical ranges used for planning.
Larger persistent disks and attached volumes require more replication time, especially across cloud provider boundaries.
More instances with complex service dependencies require staged migration planning and phased cutovers.
Cross-cloud transfer speeds affect timeline, especially for large workloads. Region selection can reduce latency.
Critical databases requiring continuous replication or AWS DMS setup add planning time but minimize cutover impact.
Regulated workloads require additional security review, IAM configuration, and compliance checks before cutover.

With decades of experience in cloud hosting and infrastructure management, AccuWeb.Cloud has helped businesses deploy, manage, and migrate production environments across global cloud platforms.
We specialize in migrating virtual machines and compute workloads across cloud providers — preserving operating systems, applications, and configurations without requiring code changes.
Every migration is executed through controlled environments, secure transfer mechanisms, and strict access policies to protect infrastructure and data throughout the process.
Using AWS Application Migration Service and CloudEndure, we replicate continuously so cutover windows are measured in minutes — not hours — even for large environments.
AccuWeb.Cloud supports migrations across AWS, Google Cloud, DigitalOcean, and CloudStack — enabling organizations to transition workloads confidently between different infrastructure environments.
We provide full infrastructure assessment, architecture mapping, test environment validation, and a rollback strategy at every stage — so you're protected from assessment through production cutover.
Everything your server depends on is migrated as-is using our lift and shift cloud migration workflow.
Your existing GCE instance OS and kernel configuration are preserved and migrated to EC2 without modification.
All installed software, runtime environments, and background services are transferred with the virtual machine.
Application databases and persistent disks are migrated to EBS while maintaining data integrity throughout.
User accounts, SSH keys, permissions, environment variables, and system configurations remain unchanged after migration.
All automated tasks, startup scripts, and scheduled jobs continue running in the EC2 environment.
Lift and shift migration allows applications to run exactly as configured on GCP without requiring code modifications.
Most migrations use continuous replication and scheduled cutovers. Minimal downtime is required only for the final cutover if replication and testing are successful.
With AWS MGN continuous replication, cutover windows can be as short as a few minutes for most workloads.
Your infrastructure credentials and access permissions always remain under your control throughout the migration.
GCP to AWS migration is the process of transferring virtual machines, storage, applications, and configurations from Google Cloud Platform to Amazon Web Services while preserving application functionality. It typically involves replicating Compute Engine disks and launching equivalent EC2 instances on AWS.
Yes. Tools like AWS Application Migration Service and CloudEndure allow direct replication of VM disks and booting on EC2 for lift and shift migrations — without needing to rebuild or reconfigure the server from scratch.
Most migrations use continuous replication and scheduled cutovers. Minimal downtime is required only for the final cutover if replication and testing are successful. With AWS MGN, this cutover window can be very short — often just minutes.
Databases are migrated using AWS Database Migration Service or native database replication. For critical systems, we run continuous replication, validate data integrity, and perform a controlled switchover — minimizing risk and ensuring consistency.
We leverage AWS Application Migration Service (MGN), CloudEndure Migration, AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) for databases, and other third-party tools depending on workload type and requirements.
Yes. We recreate VPCs, subnets, security groups, IAM roles, and routing to match application requirements and compliance needs. GCP firewall rules are mapped to AWS security groups and network ACLs.
A single VM can take a few hours. Multi-VM environments typically take days to weeks depending on size and complexity. Large enterprise environments are usually migrated in phases over several weeks, with each phase validated before proceeding.
Our migration specialists will assess your GCP environment, map resources to AWS equivalents, and execute a low-downtime migration with rollback coverage at every step.
