Caylent Expands Accelerate™ Portfolio with AI-Powered, Output-Based Offering for Cloud Migration to AWS

New output-based model leverages AI to cut migration timelines by up to 50%, embed resiliency, and deliver cost-optimized AWS foundations.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Caylent, an AWS Premier Tier AWS Partner and leader in cloud modernization and AI-driven delivery, today announced the launch of Caylent Accelerate for Cloud Migration, a new approach for helping customers migrate to Amazon Web Services (AWS). Purpose-built for migrations from VMware, Google Cloud Platform, and Microsoft Azure to AWS, the new offering combines AI-powered delivery, an output-based model, and built-in resiliency and cost optimization to deliver immediate customer value while achieving up to a 50% reduction in migration timelines.

"Caylent Accelerate for Cloud Migration's AI-powered discovery quickly pinpointed our true migration needs, reducing migration time by 40%," said Sean Curran, Head of IT at Nationwide Appraisal Services. "With automated IaC generation and a generative AI testing suite, Caylent is ensuring a smooth transition of our critical systems to AWS, modernizing our infrastructure, retiring VMware licenses, and setting us up for long-term success beyond migration."

A Modernized Migration Experience

Caylent Accelerate for Cloud Migration shifts migration from a technical task to a business result by combining automation, proven methodology, and AI:

• AI-Powered Delivery: Dependency mapping, code conversion, and migration planning powered by AI reduce risk and migration timelines by up to 50%.
• Output-Based Model: Customers pay only for workloads that are successfully migrated to and validated in AWS, not time spent.
• Resiliency by Default: Every migration includes a disaster recovery strategy aligned to customer RPO/RTO requirements.
• Cost Optimization Built In: A post-migration cost baseline, rightsizing recommendations, and strategies for taking advantage of AWS Savings Plans are delivered at no extra cost, ensuring immediate ROI.

From assessment through to validation, Caylent Accelerate for Cloud Migration applies AI to increase accuracy and speed. During migration and validation, AI automates AWS Application Migration Service configuration, translates VM metadata into optimized AWS launch templates, and simultaneously generates Terraform infrastructure-as-code to ensure environments are future-ready. In testing and optimization, AI-driven health checks and dependency validations minimize downtime and reduce errors. By enabling greater parallelization across workloads, Caylent Accelerate helps customers migrate at scale with velocity and confidence.

"Caylent Accelerate for Cloud Migration reflects how we are changing the way services are delivered," said Lori Williams, CEO of Caylent. "Our approach fuses deep technical expertise, purposeful AI automation, and the experience of delivering migrations at scale. As AWS's Global Migration Partner of the Year, we know that success is more than just workloads migrated, it's about ensuring customers are positioned to unlock value quickly and sustain it long term."
