Hostinger & On-Premises to AWS Infrastructure Migration

The client

A global IT & Technology Services organization delivering consulting and digital platform solutions across India, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia engaged enreap to modernize its infrastructure. Their workloads were distributed across Hostinger-hosted servers, on-premises systems, and a managed MongoDB database platform, creating operational complexity and scalability constraints. With hosting contracts nearing expiration and growing performance demands, the organization initiated a strategic migration to AWS.

Client requirements

Unified Cloud Infrastructure

Consolidate Hostinger-hosted and on-premises workloads into a centralized, scalable AWS environment.

Seamless Hybrid Migration

Migrate applications, servers, and databases from multiple source environments with minimal operational disruption.

Cost-Optimized Database Modernization

Validate and migrate to Amazon DocumentDB only if it met performance, compatibility, and cost objectives.

Secure & Reliable AWS Foundation

Establish a secure, highly available AWS infrastructure aligned with best practices for networking, access, and monitoring.

Minimal Downtime Migration

Execute the migration within a strict one-week timeline while ensuring business continuity and validated outcomes.

Scalable & Future-Ready Platform

Build a modern cloud environment capable of supporting future growth, improved performance, and operational efficiency.

Our approach

enreap executed a phased migration strategy aligned with AWS best practices, leveraging AWS Application Migration Service (MGN) for server migration and AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) for database transition. The engagement included secure AWS foundation setup, controlled migration waves, infrastructure validation, monitoring enablement, and structured handover while the customer retained responsibility for application-level deployment and SSL management.

AWS Foundation & Secure Architecture

A secure AWS foundation was established using a VPC with public and private subnets, reinforced by IAM roles, security groups, and KMS encryption. Monitoring, logging, and audit visibility were enabled through Amazon CloudWatch and AWS CloudTrail.

Server Migration & Consolidation

One Hostinger application server and two on-premises workloads (Linux Vicidial and Windows Server 2019) were successfully migrated to Amazon EC2, with an additional EC2 instance provisioned to complete the target architecture. Post-migration validation ensured operating system stability, storage integrity, and secure network connectivity across all workloads

Data-Driven Decision Making

Database Modernization

The managed MongoDB database was migrated to Amazon DocumentDB using AWS Database Migration Service (DMS), ensuring secure and seamless data transfer. Schema compatibility, performance, and ~10 GB data integrity were validated, with the configuration optimized for cost efficiency and future growth.
