Cloud migration is the process of moving applications and data from a company’s private (“on-premises”) environment, which could be at their office location, to a public cloud provider’s infrastructure. A cloud migration benefit’s include reducing IT costs and improving performance, but there are security, convenience, and other advantages, too.
Things NOT to do when migrating to the cloud:
- Replicate on-prem patterns and processes in the cloud
- Retain all the delays and difficulties of on-premises for business to consume IT services
Things to WATCH OUT for when migrating and operating soon there after in the cloud:
- Loss of governance or control
- Sprawl and shadow IT
- Objectives and outcomes often misaligned
