Determining cloud readiness is the first major step to take when considering a migration. There’s a lot to consider before moving to the cloud, and it can be easy to get stuck, not knowing where to proceed where there is often a logjam of legacy system dependencies. We understand this dilemma, and are dedicated to making sure your migration starts with clear objectives.
Before starting your move, here’s how you can determine just how ready for the cloud you are:
Make sure the cloud is really what you need. This might seem obvious, but make sure your business has a specific need that cloud adoption can satisfy. Map out your pros and cons, and figure out how you might use the cloud to your greatest advantage.
Identify your goals, and how you need them met. Once you decide how your business can benefit from the cloud, go into more details. How exactly will the cloud help your workflow? What outcomes will result from a successful cloud adoption? What cloud services will you need to make your migration a success?
Plan how your business will make the most of the cloud. Envision how your workflow will change once what you need has been migrated. Determine exactly how your organization will operate and go about accomplishing its goals through use of the cloud.
Pick a place to start. Migration is a step-by-step process. With that in mind, decide where to make the first step. Beyond that, put together a sequence of what applications and workloads will be migrated next.
Don’t forget to test. Conduct regular testing through every stage of the process. Make sure you have backup plans if your tests fail.
Implement strong security. When migrating anything to the cloud, security and data protection is very important. Put together security policies as early as you can. Conveniently, AWS has strong security tools you can place in your system. Work with your cloud provider to set them up.
Planning out your cloud migration is just as important as the migration itself. Our teams will be able to work with you every step of the way, making sure you get the most out of your cloud journey. Find out how we can help you assess your cloud readiness.
