What do WebJi® cloud migration services move?
Cloud migration moves a running workload — website files, databases, mailboxes, scheduled jobs and DNS — from its current server onto cloud hosting, with a tested copy live before any visitor is pointed at it. The old server keeps running until you have checked the new one.
The difference from an ordinary website migration is scope. A cloud move often involves an application server, a separate database, background workers or several sites at once, and the destination has to be sized before anything is copied. A single cPanel site moving between shared hosts is the simpler job covered by free website migration.
- Files and code: web roots, uploads, application releases and environment files.
- Databases: MySQL or PostgreSQL, copied consistently and re-synced before cutover.
- Email: mailboxes and their history, with MX changes sequenced so mail is not bounced.
- Jobs and services: cron entries, queues and workers, recreated and tested on the destination.
- DNS: moved last, after TTLs are lowered.
How much does cloud migration cost in India?
One site moved onto a WebJi® hosting plan is free when the move is approved; a standalone copy is ₹700 per domain, covering files and up to five MySQL databases within 5 GB, before 18% GST. Larger estates are quoted in INR in writing after assessment.
| Workload | Typical timeline | Price |
|---|---|---|
| One website with email | Hours to a day | Free with a WebJi® hosting plan, subject to approval |
| Standalone copy (no WebJi® plan) | Hours to a day per domain | ₹700 per domain: files + up to 5 MySQL databases, 5 GB |
| Multi-site reseller estate or mid-size app | Days, in batches | Free with hosting, or ₹700 per domain standalone |
| Multi-server apps, large databases, compliance estates | Scoped project | Quoted in INR after assessment |
Free migration is approved per move, not an automatic button on every order. Order a standalone copy on the data migration store; every invoice carries WebJi®'s GSTIN for input credit.
Lift-and-shift or re-platform: which cloud migration do you need?
Lift-and-shift moves the application as it is onto the new server; re-platforming changes part of the stack on the way — a newer PHP, a different database engine, or containers. Lift-and-shift is faster and lower-risk, so it is the default unless the old stack is the problem.
| Question | Lift-and-shift | Re-platform |
|---|---|---|
| Code changes | None | Some, agreed at assessment |
| Risk at cutover | Low: same versions both sides | Higher: new versions must be tested |
| Good when | The server, not the app, is the issue | The app runs on an end-of-life PHP or OS |
| Pricing | Free or ₹700 per domain, as above | Quoted after assessment |
A common sequence is lift-and-shift first, then upgrade on the new server once it is stable. Teams heading for containers can read Kubernetes hosting before deciding.
How a cloud migration runs, step by step
Every cloud migration follows six stages: assess, stage, replicate, test, cut over and watch — and DNS changes only at stage five.
- Assess: inventory workloads, dependencies, data sizes and change rates; size the destination and pick a quiet window.
- Stage: build the destination with matching PHP, database and web-server versions, then run pre-migration checks.
- Replicate: take a full initial copy, then incremental passes; large databases can sync over several days to shrink the final window.
- Test: exercise the copy on a preview URL — pages, checkout, API callbacks, email in and out, scheduled jobs.
- Cut over: lower DNS TTLs a day ahead, take the last delta sync, flip records in the window and monitor live.
- Watch: monitor through the first days; the old server is kept until you have clicked through the copy.
For a do-it-yourself move, the core commands are a consistent database dump and an incremental file sync:
mysqldump --single-transaction --routines dbname > dbname.sql
rsync -avz --delete /home/site/public_html/ user@new-server:/home/site/public_html/
The rsync guide and zero-downtime migration guide cover the details.
How cloud migration avoids downtime and lost email
Downtime is avoided because the new environment is live and tested before DNS moves, and the final sync copies only what changed since the previous pass. Visitors are never pointed at an empty server.
- TTL first: lowering record TTLs ahead of the flip stops resolvers holding the old address for a full day.
- Mail overlap: MX changes are sequenced so both servers accept mail during the switch; see migrating email accounts.
- Rollback: because the old server stays up, reversing DNS is the fallback if a problem appears.
- Write freeze: for busy stores, a short pause on orders during the last sync prevents a split database.
The DNS detail for a shared-to-cloud move is in the cloud hosting migration guide.
What to send when you book a cloud migration
Email support@webji.services with the current host, the destination plan, a list of domains and databases with sizes, and any window you must avoid. With that list the desk can say whether the move is free, ₹700 per domain or a quoted project.
Include access to the old server or a full backup, and name anything unusual: cron jobs, payment-gateway callbacks, IP allow-lists or a dedicated IP. Support answers 24/7 in Hindi and English with an average first reply under 60 minutes; +91 141 4941811 is the Jaipur office line during business hours. Common destinations are cloud hosting, a cloud VPS or a private cloud for single-tenant estates.
Frequently asked questions
Can you migrate from AWS, Azure or Google Cloud to WebJi®?
Yes, if the workload is files, databases and services that can be copied over SSH or from a backup. Managed services specific to one cloud, such as a proprietary queue or serverless functions, need a replacement on the destination, which is scoped in the assessment.
What if my database is larger than 5 GB?
The ₹700 standalone price covers up to 5 GB, so a larger database is quoted. Large databases are copied ahead of time and re-synced, so the final cutover still takes minutes rather than hours.
Do I need to change my domain registrar to migrate?
No. Only the DNS records or nameservers change; the domain can stay where it is registered. If you want the name with WebJi® too, domain transfer is a separate step best done after the hosting move settles.
Will my SSL certificate move with the site?
A free certificate is reissued on the new server once DNS points there. A paid certificate can be reinstalled using its key and certificate files, or reissued by the certificate authority for the new server.
Who checks the site after migration?
Both sides. WebJi® tests pages, mail and jobs on the preview URL and monitors after cutover, but you know your application best, so click through login, forms and payments before the old server is cancelled.
