CBTS + AWS
Cloud and AI, built on AWS
Get to cloud faster, operate it better, and put AI to work — with a partner who manages the complexity so you can focus on the outcome.
The challenge
Migrating is the easy part. What comes next?
Most organizations don't struggle to start their cloud journey — they struggle to sustain it. Environments grow, governance gaps emerge, and the pressure to operationalize AI lands on teams that are already stretched. Add in compliance requirements, hybrid dependencies, and the cost of getting it wrong in a regulated industry, and cloud starts to feel like more risk than reward.

Our partnership
We are an AWS Advanced Partner
CBTS has been delivering AWS migrations, cloud-native builds, and full managed operations for mid-market and enterprise clients across regulated industries for many years. Our engineers hold 50+ AWS certifications, including Well-Architected Framework design, development, and configuration. That depth isn't a credential — it's what keeps your environment running right after go-live.
The AWS Government Competency recognizes our track record delivering cloud to public sector agencies, from civilian to state and local government to defense. The same rigor we bring to government workloads applies to every regulated environment we manage.
What we deliver
Cloud migration and modernization
Legacy infrastructure has a cost — in dollars, in risk, and in the speed at which your teams can move. CBTS designs and executes structured AWS migrations that reduce complexity without disrupting operations, from initial assessment through full cutover and optimization.
Business outcomes:
-
Reduce data center footprint and eliminate underutilized hardware and licensing costs
-
Consolidate OS versions and standardize your environment at scale
-
Free your infrastructure team from maintenance cycles to work on higher-value problems
AI and data on AWS
AWS offers one of the most complete AI and data platforms available — Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, and Amazon Q among them. CBTS helps you identify the right use cases, build the data foundations that make AI work, and deploy models into production in ways that are governed, secure, and tied to measurable outcomes.
Business outcomes:
-
Move from AI experimentation to production deployment with a defined architecture
-
Build analytics and ML pipelines that use your existing data assets
-
Reduce time-to-insight across operations, finance, and customer-facing functions
Managed cloud operations
Running AWS well after migration requires constant attention — cost governance, patching, monitoring, availability management, and security response. CBTS provides 24x7 managed operations across your AWS environment so your team isn't on call for infrastructure.
Business outcomes:
-
Reduce operational overhead with proactive monitoring and automated remediation
-
Maintain cost discipline through continuous rightsizing and reservation management
-
Access 24x7 support without adding headcount
Security and compliance
In regulated industries, cloud security isn't a feature — it's a requirement. CBTS designs and operates AWS environments built to meet regulatory mandates, with architecture reviews, identity governance, and continuous compliance monitoring built in.
Business outcomes:
-
Meet security clearance and compliance requirements from day one, not as an afterthought
-
Reduce audit exposure with continuous controls monitoring
-
Improve your security posture as you reduce infrastructure complexity

Battle-tested at enterprise scale
You shouldn’t be the test case. CBTS implements AI in our own operations before we bring it to clients — so what we deliver is proven in production, not piloted on your time and budget.
Awards & recognition
FAQ
AWS migration cost depends on the size and cleanliness of your environment, how many workloads move as-is versus needing re-architecting, and your data-transfer and licensing footprint. CBTS models total cost of ownership up front in an initial assessment, so you see the full picture before committing.
In May 2026, CBTS achieved AWS Migration and Modernization Competency status, an AWS designation validating proven success in migrating and modernizing applications. CBTS reports that clients combining migration and modernization cut licensing costs by up to 77%, reduced cloud operational costs by 60%, shortened development cycles by 45%, and reached production AI within 12 months of go-live.

AWS MAP (Migration Acceleration Program) is AWS’s primary funding program for moving workloads to AWS, offsetting costs through service credits and partner-funded engineering across its Assess, Mobilize, and Migrate & Modernize phases. MAP funding is only available through a qualified AWS partner, and as a Migration and Modernization Competency partner, CBTS can determine eligibility, scope the work, and file the funding requests on your behalf.
AWS offers a deep AI and data stack, including Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, and Amazon Q, but moving from pilot to production takes a defined architecture and the right data foundations. CBTS identifies viable use cases, builds the data pipelines that make AI work, and deploys models securely with measurable outcomes.
