We evaluate your workloads, data, security posture, and team readiness to determine which apps should move to cloud — and which should stay.
Talk to a cloud architectNot every workload belongs in the cloud. Some apps are cheaper on dedicated servers, some are blocked by compliance requirements, and some should be retired rather than migrated. A cloud readiness assessment tells you which is which — before you spend six figures on a migration that moves the wrong workloads.
CB4UHost's Cloud Readiness Assessment evaluates your applications, data, security posture, team skills, and operational capacity against cloud best practices. We produce a workload-by-workload recommendation: migrate as-is, refactor first, re-platform, stay on dedicated, or retire.
We're vendor-neutral on the destination too. 'Cloud' includes AWS, GCP, Azure, OVHcloud, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, and others — the right destination depends on your workload, region, and budget, not on which hyperscaler has the best sales team.
Every assessment ends with a written report, a migration roadmap, and a 60-minute walkthrough so your team can defend and execute the decision.
We catalog your applications, dependencies, data flows, and current resource usage.
Each app is classified: migrate as-is, refactor, re-platform, stay on dedicated, or retire.
We assess your security posture and compliance requirements (HIPAA, PCI, GDPR, FedRAMP) against cloud capabilities.
We evaluate your team's cloud skills and recommend training or hiring to close gaps.
Phased migration plan with risk mitigation, rollback strategies, and timeline estimates.
We inventory applications, data, dependencies, and current infrastructure.
We analyze each workload for cloud fit — performance, cost, security, and compliance.
We evaluate your team's cloud readiness and identify skill gaps.
We produce a workload-by-workload recommendation with rationale and migration strategy.
We deliver a phased migration roadmap and walk your team through it.

Typically 3-4 weeks for a mid-size estate (20-50 applications). Larger estates take longer. We can rush for urgent migration decisions.
Yes, after assessing your workloads. We compare AWS, GCP, Azure, OVHcloud, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, and others based on your region, compliance, and budget.
That happens about 20% of the time. Some workloads — especially predictable heavy databases or compliance-bound apps — are cheaper and safer on dedicated servers. We'll show you the math.
Yes — we offer migration execution as a follow-on engagement (see our Migration Services). Many clients use the assessment to scope the migration project.
Side-by-side comparison of shared, VPS, cloud, dedicated, GPU, and colocation across major providers — with specs, pricing, and trade-offs.
3- and 5-year total cost of ownership models across providers — including compute, storage, egress, support, and hidden costs sales reps leave out.
Design hybrid topologies that put latency-sensitive workloads on dedicated hardware and burstable workloads on cloud — with secure networking between them.
