Google Cloud Partner
Exit the data center and move on-premises and VMware workloads to Google Cloud, servers, VMware to GCVE, networking and storage migrated with a phased, low-risk plan. Lower TCO, no hardware refresh.
Yes, you can migrate your on-prem data center to Google Cloud. Codimite, a Google Cloud Partner, moves physical and virtual servers to Compute Engine via Migrate to Virtual Machines, lifts existing VMware estates to Google Cloud VMware Engine (GCVE), and re-maps networking, IAM and storage, with a phased, low-risk cutover that keeps on-prem systems live until each workload is validated.
Why migrate
Exit capex-heavy data center hardware, power, cooling and floor-space; shift to elastic, pay-as-you-go capacity.
Run native vSphere/NSX/vSAN on Google Cloud VMware Engine, then modernise selectively, no forced re-platform on day one.
Automatic sustained-use and committed-use discounts and competitive price-performance versus running and refreshing your own hardware.
Once in Google Cloud, modernise to BigQuery and Vertex AI / Gemini.
Multi-region availability and Google's private global network without building your own DR sites.
What we migrate
| On-prem asset | Migrates to Google Cloud | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Physical & virtual servers | Compute Engine | Migrate to Virtual Machines; agent-based replication |
| VMware estate (vSphere/NSX/vSAN) | Google Cloud VMware Engine (GCVE) | Lift native VMware with minimal change |
| LAN/WAN, firewalls, VLANs | VPC, firewall rules, Cloud VPN / Interconnect | Network topology re-mapped; hybrid connectivity during transition |
| Active Directory / LDAP | Cloud IAM / Managed Microsoft AD | Identity federated or migrated to your IdP |
| SAN / NAS file storage | Cloud Storage / Filestore / Persistent Disk | Storage Transfer Service; tiering applied |
| On-prem databases | Cloud SQL / AlloyDB / Spanner / BigQuery | Database / BigQuery Migration Service |
Exact scope and the lift-and-shift vs modernise decision per workload are confirmed during assessment.
Our process
We discover and inventory servers, VMware, network, storage and dependencies, and build a TCO comparison and exit plan.
We design the Google Cloud landing zone and target, Compute Engine vs GCVE per workload, VPC, IAM, hybrid connectivity and storage.
A representative set of workloads migrates first to validate fidelity, performance and connectivity.
Wave-based replication and cutover of servers, VMware, data and storage, on-prem live in parallel.
Functional, performance and data-integrity checks confirm parity with source.
Right-sizing, committed-use discounts, modernization candidates and data-center decommissioning.
Why Codimite
Cloud migration is a core practice, delivered as a Google Cloud Partner with 85+ Google Certified Specialists: we lift VMware as-is, plan hybrid connectivity for a no-disruption transition, and optimize cost as we decommission the data center.

FAQs
Yes, physical/virtual servers to Compute Engine via Migrate to Virtual Machines, VMware estates to GCVE, plus networking, identity and storage, with a phased cutover.
Yes, Google Cloud VMware Engine runs native vSphere/NSX/vSAN, so VMware workloads lift with minimal change.
No hard downtime for most workloads. We replicate live servers and run a pilot first; on-prem stays available until each workload is validated.
Weeks for a small server estate; three to nine months for a full data center, driven by VM count and network/storage dependencies.
