SOLUTIONS / CLOUD MIGRATION
Beyond the Landing Zone: infrastructure fidelity from on-prem to cloud.
Stop settling for rigid, flat Landing Zones that break your networking. FluidCloud automatically builds a cloud-native replica of your on-premise architecture, maintaining 1:1 fidelity for security, IAM, and complex VPC structures.
THE PROBLEM
Why your initial Landing Zone is a technical-debt time bomb.
Most VMware exits fail because they try to “flatten” a 20-year-old architecture into a single, generic VPC.
01 · RISK
The Super-Admin security risk.
Standard migrations dump all VMs into a single VPC with over-privileged permissions — a breach in one workload becomes a breach in all of them.
Identity sprawl · single blast radius
02 · RISK
Broken networking logic.
VMware-based apps rely on specific VLANs and subnets. Forcing them into a generic landing zone breaks dependencies and triggers months of manual refactoring.
VLAN flattening · cross-app failures
03 · RISK
The rigidity wall.
A basic landing zone isn't built to scale. By the time you realize it's too rigid, production data has already moved — redesign is nearly impossible.
Day-2 lock-in · expensive redesign
THE SOLUTION
Clone your architecture, not just your VMs.
FluidCloud creates an Advanced Landing Zone (ALZ) that mirrors your source environment’s sophistication.
01 · CAPABILITY
High-fidelity networking.
We automatically map your on-premise VLANs, firewalls, and subnets to cloud-native VPCs and Security Groups. No more flattened networks.
VLAN parity · SG translation
02 · CAPABILITY
Identity & governance mapping.
Replicate your complex IAM hierarchies and permissions. We move you into a governed, multi-account structure from Day 1 — not a Super-Admin free-for-all.
IAM parity · multi-account · Day 1
03 · CAPABILITY
Frictionless VM mobility.
Because the Landing Zone is a twin of your source, moving VMs becomes a plug-and-play task — not a rebuild-and-test nightmare.
Source-twin · plug-and-play moves
HOW IT WORKS
Deploying your Advanced Landing Zone.
Four steps from on-prem topology to a production-ready, high-fidelity cloud replica.
STEP 01
Deep architectural scan.
Connect FluidCloud to your VMware or Nutanix environment. Our engine identifies the true networking topology — not just the surface-level VM data.
Read-only · ~24 hours
STEP 02
ALZ blueprinting.
Select your target cloud. FluidCloud generates an Advanced Landing Zone blueprint that preserves your security posture and networking logic.
AWS · Azure · GCP · OCI
STEP 03
Validation & dry-run.
Download the Terraform for your ALZ. AI-powered validation shows exactly how your on-premise apps will sit in the new environment before any data moves.
Terraform · AI validation · zero risk
STEP 04
Automated cloning.
Trigger the deployment. FluidCloud builds the Landing Zone and migrates the VMs simultaneously — a production-ready, high-fidelity replica on day one.
One-click deploy · Day 1 ready
A NUTANIX VIEW
“Migrating virtual machines from VMware to Nutanix AHV is easy. The hard part is migrating network security. FluidCloud’s cloud cloning technology solves that.”
