Abstract - In the evolving landscape of software systems, the demand for seamless migration of applications from traditional local servers to cloud environments is rapidly increasing. However, this transition often involves a series of complex, manual, and repetitive tasks that can hinder scalability and productivity. This paper presents a streamlined approach aimed at minimizing the human effort involved in the migration of server-based applications to cloud infrastructure. The proposed system introduces an intelligent interface that allows users to initiate and manage the migration process through a minimal-input design. By leveraging automated scripting and remote execution, the system enables local environments to communicate with cloud-based virtual machines, facilitating the end-to-end setup, configuration, and hosting of applications with little to no manual intervention. The architecture focuses on reducing the operational overhead typically associated with cloud onboarding, offering a lightweight, user-centric model adaptable to various application types. This approach contributes to faster deployment cycles, improved efficiency, and an overall reduction in the complexity of cloud adoption processes.
