Cloud migration services include a wide range of components to ensure a seamless transition. From conducting a cloud infrastructure assessment and developing a cloud migration strategy to post migration, learn everything you need to know about moving to the cloud.
Before considering cloud adoption for your business, it’s crucial to perform a detailed analysis of your system with a cloud infrastructure assessment. A cloud assessment examines your infrastructure and applications to make your cloud migration strategy aligns with your existing infrastructure. The information gathered during a cloud infrastructure assessment also lays the foundation for your move to the cloud and reduces data security risks, ensuring a successful migration.
A cloud infrastructure assessment involves the following steps:
For a successful cloud infrastructure assessment that results in efficient cloud solutions, it’s essential to rely on an experienced cloud migration services provider.
Whether you’re migrating to a private cloud, hybrid platform, or Google cloud environment, developing a cloud migration strategy is imperative for a successful migration plan. The goal of a cloud migration strategy is to simplify the planning process to ensure a seamless cloud migration implementation phase.
Part of the six R’s of cloud migration, here are the most common cloud migration strategies:
Known as the lift and shift strategy, a rehosting cloud migration strategy includes simply lifting your stack and shifting it over to your new cloud-based platform, transporting copies of your data to the cloud to prevent detailed changes for a fast ROI.
A replatforming cloud migration strategy is a variation of rehosting and keeps your core application architecture the same. Replatforming involves making adjustments that optimize your migration to the cloud, resulting in increased system performance.
The repurchasing approach to a cloud migration strategy moves your applications to a cloud-native solution, such as software as a service (SaaS). While repurchasing is a common option for customized legacy landscape applications, it requires training your staff on the new platform.
The refactoring strategy involves building your applications from the ground up. Considered the most compatible cloud migration strategy, selecting refactoring as a strategy is a best practice if your business goal is to benefit from cloud capabilities that aren’t available in your existing environment.
