On-Premise to Cloud Migration Services in Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia is experiencing rapid cloud adoption, with over 70% of large enterprises engaged in cloud migration projects. The government's Cloud-First Policy mandates prioritization of cloud solutions in public sector workloads, leading major cloud providers like AWS, Microsoft Azure, Oracle, and Google Cloud to establish sovereign cloud regions in the country. However, cloud migration must be managed carefully to avoid issues such as downtime and compliance gaps. Exalogic offers tailored End-to-End Cloud Migration Services that align with KSA's compliance requirements and optimize the cloud environment without disrupting business operations.

Cloud Platforms & Migration Technologies We Deploy in KSA
Our cloud migration practice covers every major hyperscaler platform operating sovereign regions in Saudi Arabia — with deep technical expertise across the tools, frameworks, and compliance requirements specific to each.
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
AWS launched its Riyadh region to help KSA organisations meet data residency and compliance requirements. Exalogic delivers AWS migrations using the AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP), covering assessment, migration, optimisation, and ongoing cloud operations. Our expertise spans AWS compute, storage, databases, security, and AI services.
Microsoft Azure
Exalogic helps organisations migrate applications, databases, and infrastructure to Microsoft Azure using Azure Migrate and the Cloud Adoption Framework. We implement secure, compliant cloud environments with Azure Active Directory, Microsoft Defender for Cloud, and Azure Policy while supporting hybrid cloud deployments through Azure Arc.
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
With cloud regions in both Riyadh and Jeddah, OCI offers strong in-country data residency capabilities. Exalogic specialises in migrating Oracle workloads, including Oracle Database, Oracle E-Business Suite, and custom applications, while leveraging Oracle Exadata Cloud and Autonomous Database services.
Google Cloud Platform
Google Cloud's Dammam region enables organisations to keep data within Saudi Arabia while leveraging advanced AI, analytics, and cloud services. Exalogic supports migrations to Compute Engine, Cloud SQL, BigQuery, and Vertex AI with secure, high-performance cloud architectures.
Hybrid Cloud Architecture
Many KSA enterprises require a phased cloud adoption approach. Exalogic designs hybrid cloud environments that integrate on-premise infrastructure with public cloud platforms using technologies such as VMware Cloud, Azure Arc, AWS Outposts, and SD-WAN for secure and seamless operations.
FinOps & Cloud Cost Management
Exalogic helps organisations maximise cloud ROI through FinOps best practices, including cost monitoring, resource optimisation, budget controls, reserved instance planning, and ongoing governance using AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud cost management tools.
Our Cloud Migration Delivery Approach
A structured, phased methodology that protects business continuity, maintains KSA compliance, and delivers the full value of cloud — without the risk of a big-bang migration.
Assess
Conduct a comprehensive cloud readiness assessment covering application inventory, dependency mapping, data classification, and PDPL/NCA compliance requirements across your KSA environment.
Plan
Develop a phased migration roadmap defining workload sequencing, platform selection, architecture design, security controls, and CITC regulatory compliance checkpoints.
Design
Architect your target cloud environment on KSA-local cloud regions — covering network topology, IAM, encryption, DLP, and hybrid connectivity for on-premise workloads that must remain in-Kingdom.
Migrate
Execute controlled workload migrations in phases, with parallel-run environments active, rollback procedures tested, and zero-disruption cutovers validated before each production transition.
Validate
Conduct post-migration performance testing, security posture validation, government integration testing, and business sign-off — confirming full compliance and operational readiness.
