Develop a Cloud Migration Planning Tool for Small Businesses

Help businesses transition to the cloud with a smart tool that estimates costs, recommends services, evaluates security concerns, and generates a step-by-step migration plan.

Why Small Businesses Need Migration Support

Migrating to the cloud can reduce IT costs and improve flexibility, but many small businesses lack the technical resources to plan this shift. A tool that simplifies the decision-making and planning process can help reduce risk and optimize cloud adoption.

Project Objectives

Create a web-based tool where businesses enter their current infrastructure details. The tool then analyzes workloads, suggests cloud equivalents, estimates migration costs, and generates a personalized migration roadmap.

Core Features to Implement

Infrastructure Assessment Form

Collect user input on current servers, software, storage needs, compliance requirements, and peak usage loads.

Migration Readiness Score

Evaluate technical and organizational readiness using a scoring algorithm and suggest low-risk services to migrate first.

Cost Estimator

Estimate monthly cloud costs for AWS, Azure, or GCP based on selected services and data usage patterns.

Customized Migration Plan

Generate a visual and downloadable report that outlines each migration phase, timeline, risks, and resources required.

Architecture Overview

The frontend collects business and technical details via a form. A backend engine processes this data using predefined logic or AI assistance, and stores session data for reporting. Reports are displayed in the browser and can be exported as PDFs.

  • Frontend: React.js / Next.js form with progress tracking
  • Backend: Node.js, Flask, or Django with logic for cost analysis and migration strategy
  • Cloud Cost APIs: AWS Pricing Calculator, Azure RateCard API, GCP Cloud Billing Catalog
  • Database: MongoDB or PostgreSQL for user sessions and infrastructure snapshots
  • Reporting: PDF generation via Puppeteer / wkhtmltopdf
Recommended Tech Stack

Frontend

Next.js with TailwindCSS, dynamic form wizard and migration summary UI

Backend

Node.js or Flask with cloud pricing logic and report generation

APIs & Integrations

AWS Pricing API, Azure RateCard API, GCP Billing Catalog, PDF generation tools

Database & Storage

Step-by-Step Development Guide

1. Design Input Wizard

Collect structured data such as number of VMs, databases, app types, and compliance concerns.

2. Create Cost Calculation Logic

Use APIs or mock data to estimate monthly costs based on selected providers and services.

3. Develop Migration Score & Recommendations

Evaluate how ready the business is and recommend which components to move first (e.g., storage, email, CRM).

4. Build Plan Generator

Create a migration timeline with steps grouped into phases — pilot, migration, optimization.

5. Export Final Report

Generate a PDF or downloadable summary with charts and detailed advice tailored to user input.
