INTRODUCING saasups — KNOW THE PATH BEFORE YOU TAKE IT →
Estate Assessment · 7-R Scoring

See your first 7-R recommendation in under 48 hours. No agents. No write access.

Connect a scoped read-only role, repository, or database and saasups maps your estate, scores each workload against the seven strategies, and returns a prioritized roadmap — before any migration begins.

Read-only access · no agents installed · no write permissions

Connect your environment

Read-onlyRead-only access only. saasups never writes, deploys, or mutates.

Grant read-only access to a Git repository. saasups clones once, analyses dependencies, infrastructure-as-code, and runtime configurations — then discards the local copy.

Start your assessment

By connecting, you agree to saasups read-only access terms. Credentials are encrypted at rest and never shared.

How saasups works

Four steps from estate to roadmap

No agents installed. No write permissions granted. No migration started until you say so.

01

Connect

Provide a scoped read-only role ARN, a repository token, or a database connection string. saasups validates access, confirms least-privilege scope, and begins enumeration immediately.

02

Assess

saasups maps your estate — services, dependencies, runtime configurations, cost signals, and schema patterns — into a structured workload graph. Nothing is written back.

03

Recommend

Each workload is scored against the seven strategies: Rehost, Replatform, Refactor, Rearchitect, Rebuild, Replace, or Retire. Scores carry a confidence band, rationale, and dependency context.

04

Export

Receive a scored estate map and prioritized roadmap as a structured export — ready to load into your planning board, share with stakeholders, or re-score after configuration changes.

What the output looks like across different estate profiles

All figures illustrative. Sectors and configurations anonymized — no real organizations depicted.

Financial Services
94%confidence

Java 8 monolith · RDS PostgreSQL · EC2 Auto Scaling

Rearchitect

Scoring identified 3 bounded domains ready for service extraction ahead of a planned PCI re-certification window.

E-Commerce Platform
88%confidence

Node.js · MongoDB · Lambda + API Gateway

Replatform

Container migration path confirmed with 6 workloads flagged for ECS Fargate — cost delta modeled before a single sprint was planned.

Healthcare Data
96%confidence

Python ETL · Aurora MySQL · EKS 1.24

Refactor

Schema analysis surfaced two tables with undocumented PHI adjacency — flagged for compliance gate review before any pipeline change.

SaaS B2B
82%confidence

Ruby on Rails · ElasticSearch · Elastic Beanstalk

Rebuild

Rails 4 dependency graph showed 14 gems with no migration path — rebuild scored higher confidence than refactor at a 36-month horizon.

Media & Streaming
97%confidence

Go microservices · DynamoDB · CloudFront

Rehost

Architecture already cloud-native; assessment confirmed Rehost to a newer EC2 family delivers 22% cost reduction with zero code changes.

Illustrative · anonymized
Logistics & Supply Chain
79%confidence

C# .NET Framework · SQL Server · Windows EC2

Retire

Three legacy batch jobs mapped — two had zero invocations in 18 months, scored Retire; freed 40% of legacy maintenance budget in planning.

Configure your assessment

Tune scoring to your operational priorities

Every estate is different. Set risk tolerance, cost optimization weight, and compliance gates before saasups scores — so recommendations reflect your constraints, not a generic heuristic.

Risk tolerance
ConservativeBalancedAggressive

Controls how aggressively saasups recommends strategies that require significant code or architecture changes.

Cost optimization weight
LowMediumHigh

Increases the scoring weight applied to compute cost reduction when ranking equivalent strategies.

Compliance gate
NonePCI-DSSHIPAASOC 2ISO 27001

Activates a pre-check pass that flags workloads with compliance-adjacent signals before scoring recommendations.

Where saasups fits

A decision layer, not another repository or scanner

saasups is a modernization decision layer — not an EA repository, a code-intelligence scanner, or a general transformation workbench. Before committing, engineering leaders typically weigh it against three familiar alternatives. Here is how the tradeoffs compare — objectively.
