How we support SUSE Linux Enterprise Server → Amazon Linux 2023 after migration

  • Fixed-scope project, no surprise overruns.
  • Senior platform engineers handle end-to-end migration.
  • 40-70% savings on legacy SUSE support renewals.
  • Full AWS Auto Scaling and IAM integration.
  • Legacy support stays active per your vendor contract.
  • US-based 24/7 support for post-migration peace of mind.

YaST dependency locks your config.

Your on-premise SLES systems rely on YaST for network, storage, and user management. We migrate configurations to AWS-native equivalents (e.g., CloudFormation, SSM), removing YaST reliance without re-engineering apps.

SLES HA clusters don't translate to EC2.

High-availability cluster configs built with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server cluster stack fail on EC2. Our architects re-architect HA using AWS Auto Scaling Groups and multi-AZ deployments—no vendor lock-in, lower operational overhead.

Proprietary kernel modules break on AMI.

Third-party modules (e.g., custom drivers, security agents) tied to the SUSE kernel often fail on Amazon Linux. We test and recompile modules for AL2023, ensuring all your tools work on day one.

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server → Amazon Linux 2023 migration — your questions answered

Will I lose vendor support on my legacy SLES during migration?+

No. Your SUSE contract remains active as long as you renew it. You migrate on your timeline. If the renewal lapses, our independent third-party support covers most operational issues on the legacy platform while you complete the move. It is not vendor support and does not include vendor patches.

How do you handle custom kernel modules from my SLES environment?+

We test all proprietary modules against Amazon Linux 2023 early in the assessment phase. If a module fails, we recompile it, find an equivalent AWS-native solution, or work with your vendor for a compatible version. No surprises during cutover.

What if I'm migrating on-premise SLES, not cloud-hosted?+

We migrate both on-premise and cloud-hosted instances. The process includes OS reconfiguration, app validation, and AWS infrastructure setup (VPC, subnets, Security Groups). The same fixed-scope model applies.

What happens after migration? Do you offer ongoing support?+

Yes. We offer Managed AWS Systems Manager (SSM) automation, continuous patching, and CloudWatch performance optimization. This keeps your Amazon Linux 2023 environment secure, patched, and monitored without adding headcount.

Your SLES to Amazon Linux move, managed by experts.

Stop juggling YaST configs, HA cluster workarounds, and licensing overhead. Our senior engineers deliver a fixed-scope migration to Amazon Linux 2023, optimized for AWS. Start with a no-commit assessment—get your project scoped, budgeted, and scheduled on your terms. Post-migration, we keep your environment healthy with Managed SSM automation and CloudWatch optimization.
