Perpetual licenses are gone. Bundling is mandatory. Costs are rising. The "status quo" is no longer a safe harbor—it's an active financial risk. ### Escalating Costs Reports indicate licensing cost increases of **3x to 10x** for many enterprises under the new subscription model. ### Mandatory Bundling Forced adoption of full-stack bundles means paying for shelfware you don't need and can't use. ### The Cost of Waiting Every renewal cycle without a plan compounds your technical debt and locks you into unfavorable terms. Strategic Pivot ### Your Decision Crossroads Stay & Pay +300% Cost Migrate to AWS \-40% TCO Unlock innovation, elasticity, and funded migration support. "The problem is not migration. The problem is knowing which path to take." ## Your Migration Options We offer three distinct pathways, optimized for different business needs. You can combine them—starting safe and evolving to full modernization. ### 1\. Amazon EVS Best for: Urgent Exit Keep Everything Familiar Runs VMware Cloud Foundation directly in AWS. Fastest path to exit on-prem without architectural changes. * Zero application changes * Same tools (vCenter, vSAN) * Timeline: 6-12 weeks ### 2\. Rehost to EC2 Best for: Cost Optimization Lift, Shift & Optimize Move to native AWS EC2 instances. Optimization path for future modernization and cost reduction. * 20-40% cost savings * Auto-scaling & DR * Timeline: 3-6 months ### 3\. Modernize Best for: Innovation Full Transformation Rearchitect for cloud-native: Serverless, Containers, and Managed Services. * Max competitive advantage * Ship features daily * Timeline: 6-12+ months Agentic AI Powered ## Accelerate with AWS Transform for VMware Parsectix leverages **AWS Transform for VMware**, the industry's first agentic AI service, to modernize your workloads at scale.

We combine deep AWS expertise with agentic AI to deliver migrations that are faster, safer, and more cost-effective. ### AWS Competency Partner Validated technical proficiency and proven customer success in migration and modernization. ### Velocity by Design From 6-9 month timelines to 6-9 weeks. Our agentic AI tools accelerate every phase. ### Risk-Managed Execution Wave-based migration approach ensures business continuity and zero unplanned downtime. ## What to Expect from Your Assessment A clear, no-obligation path to understanding your migration potential. 1 ### Discovery We analyze your environment using agentic tools to map dependencies. 2 ### Analysis We calculate TCO, identify risks, and recommend the optimal pathway. 3 ### Roadmap You receive a detailed migration plan, timeline, and cost estimate. ## Common Questions ### How long does a migration take? Timeline depends on complexity and pathway. EVS migrations can complete in 6-12 weeks. EC2 rehosting typically takes 3-6 months. Full modernization is 6-12+ months. We use a wave-based approach to deliver value incrementally. ### Which migration pathway is right for us? It depends on your goals. EVS is best if you need to exit on-prem quickly with zero changes. EC2 rehosting balances speed with cost optimization. Full modernization delivers maximum competitive advantage. We often recommend a hybrid approach: start with EVS or EC2, then selectively modernize high-value workloads. ### What are the actual cost savings? Typical savings range from 30-60% TCO reduction. This comes from eliminating VMware licensing costs, pay-as-you-go pricing, auto-scaling, right-sizing, and AWS license-included instances. The AWS Optimization and Licensing Assessment (OLA) can reduce Windows/SQL Server core counts by 45-77%. ### What about business continuity and risk? We mitigate risk through extensive testing, pilot migrations, and wave-based execution. Applications are tested before cutover. We maintain parallel environments during transition and have tested rollback procedures. Most migrations achieve 99.9%+ uptime during the transition. ### Do we maintain control and ownership? Absolutely. You own your AWS environment and infrastructure. We execute the migration and can optionally provide Managed Services for day-to-day operations, but you maintain complete control, access, and decision-making authority over your systems. ### Can AWS help fund the migration? Yes. The AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP) provides financial credits and investment to help offset the initial costs of migration and modernization. MAP offers a proven three-phase methodology (Assess, Mobilize, Migrate & Modernize) backed by AWS and partner expertise. As an AWS Migration Competency Partner, we help you access MAP funding and guide you through the entire program to accelerate your cloud journey. ## Start Your Assessment Understand your environment, outline your options, and execute with confidence.
