Hoping someone here may have some guidance.
I'm looking into to moving our various websites to AWS (from a MediaTemple Grid Pro setup).
We have 15+ sites we manage on MT... ideally we'd like something similar to the MT Grid management system. We have add-ons like G Suite for more than half the sites we have up (Can you backup & transfer all emails / contacts from an existing G Suite setup? We're talking a few years worth of emails for a few users across about 5-10 websites). We also have a few of the sites setup w/SSL certificates simply so we can accept a random payments utilizing woocommerce (or the like... we've build a few product pages for vendors / partners to pay various fees).
All of our sites are built on Wordpress. We prefer to install WP and manage many plugins manually (via FTP). We also do a lot of 'raw HTML' type pages that simply sit in folders on the server and are placed / inserted in a WP page (so FTP / folder access / editing is very important).
I'm wandering around AWS's various cloud options and it's a bit overwhelming... I've attempted a few conversations w/their sales staff but they're useless as they're not familiar from where I'm coming from (our existing setup)... some of you are. Help!
- I've no real useful input other than to enquire as to whether you'd consider Google's offering - I'd like to think they'd have a focus on G SuiteNairn
- ..also, my experience with AWS mirrors yours in that it's a wall of WTF? It' snot exactly self-explanatory to mere mortals like us!Nairn
