The Migration Program

Seventeen client sites moved to monitored, version-controlled cloud hosting — zero unplanned downtime.

Legacy hosting accumulates: old servers, old PHP versions, configurations nobody remembers. We ran a coordinated program to move seventeen client sites off legacy infrastructure onto managed cloud hosting.

Every site was pulled into version control first, so each migration started from a documented baseline. Sites moved one at a time — DNS choreography, cache configuration, SSL, and post-move verification for each — with rollback ready at every step. No unplanned downtime across the program.

ShadowComm is a Cloudways Agency Partner, listed in their agency directory. Cloudways is the managed cloud platform the program standardised on, and the one every migrated site is operated on today.

The shadow work: seventeen businesses kept running while the ground moved under their websites. None of their customers ever knew.
