ReluTech Podcast | Episode 7: What Slows Cloud Migrations (And How to Fix It) with Josiah Deegan

When companies decide to move to the cloud, they often stop thinking about the data center—until it starts slowing everything down. 

In this episode, Josiah Deegan joins Chris Youngblood to talk about the stuff nobody else wants to deal with: aging hardware, bloated maintenance contracts, and what to do with millions of dollars' worth of equipment that’s still sitting there.

They cover how ReluTech helps customers rent, sell, or keep using that gear in smarter ways—especially during long migrations that involve overlapping costs. You’ll hear how buybacks, rentals, third-party support, and purchase leasebacks are helping companies free up cash and migrate faster.

Josiah also shares how he got into tech by accident, why ReluTech’s approach works so well with AWS partners, and what happens when financial decisions start driving technical ones.

If your migration budget’s tight or stalled, this one’s worth a listen.
