The bigger the scale of the workloads you are considering moving to the cloud, the more likely you will be to want outside consulting help, useful tools, or both. ![]() Both experiences with cloud migration and supportive tools can help in obtaining the best results. Some of the steps are interdependent for instance, it helps to know the cost of moving various workloads when choosing which ones to move first. Tracking and ensuring success of the migration.Estimating the cost and schedule for the move.Estimating the cost and performance of the software, post-move. ![]() Matching services/components to equivalents on different cloud platforms. ![]() (Potentially) optimizing the workloads before the move.Baselining performance and resource use before moving.Identifying on-premises workloads to move to cloud.(Courtesy IBM, via Slideshare.)Ĭloud migration usually includes most or all of the following steps: See our blog post, What is Cloud Migration, for an introduction.įigure 1: Steps in cloud migration. In cloud migration, also known as “move to cloud,” you move existing data processing tasks to a cloud platform, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform, to private clouds, and-or to hybrid cloud solutions.
