Migration acceleration
As an AWS MAP Partner, you're in safe hands.

With demonstrated technical expertise in delivering customer cloud migrations, as an AWS MAP Partner fourTheorem can access migration support available under the AWS Migration Acceleration Program on your behalf.
MAP is a proven cloud migration program designed to help move workloads to AWS quickly and easily, in a cost-efficient manner – with AWS funding available at each phase of the migration process, as well as significant discounts for several years after.
Migrating to AWS unlocks efficiencies and operational benefits - but the process can be long, complex, and expensive.
MAP can accelerate your organisation’s cloud migration and modernisation journey through outcome-driven methodology, tooling, and financial incentives.
We follow a three-step approach to migration that uses proven frameworks to reduce the risk and cost for you.

A serverless architecture for high performance financial modelling
RenaissanceRe is a highly differentiated reinsurance business that combines the best of proprietary analytical tools with the domain-expertise of their people in delivering value for their clients and stakeholders. In 2020 RenaissanceRe decided to stop investing in their on-premises cluster, and to re-imagine the system on AWS.
fourTheorem are now fully engaged across their tech teams collaborating, architecting and helping to build exciting serverless solutions, in tune with their desired pace of acceleration. Reducing the run time of one process from 10 hours to 1 hour demonstrated the true potential of serverless AWS – the removal of the artificial ceiling the monolith represented, unleashing the power of the cloud.
