TYPES OF MIGRATION

There are several ways to migrate to the cloud, depending on the specific needs and requirements of your organization. Here are a few common methods:

LIFT AND SHIFT

This method involves moving existing on-premises applications and infrastructure to the cloud without changing the application architecture. This is often the simplest and quickest way to migrate to the cloud, but it may not take full advantage of the capabilities of the cloud.

RE-HOSTING

This method involves making changes to the application architecture to take advantage of cloud-specific features and services. For example, this could include breaking down a monolithic application into microservices or using cloud-native databases.

RE-IMAGINE

This method involves a significant redesign of the application architecture to take full advantage of the capabilities of the cloud. This could include serverless computing, containerization, and other cloud-native technologies.

HYBRID

This method involves a combination of on-premises and cloud-based infrastructure and services. This allows organizations to keep some applications and data on-premises for compliance or security reasons while still taking advantage of the scalability and cost benefits of the cloud.

CLOUD TO CLOUD

This method is used when organizations want to migrate from one cloud service provider to another. This can be done by migrating the data and the applications or only the data to the new cloud provider.

Regardless of the migration method chosen, it’s essential to have a well-defined plan in place and to thoroughly test the migration before making the final move to the cloud. It’s also important to consider the security and compliance implications of migrating to the cloud and to ensure that the necessary measures are in place to protect data and applications.

IS IN OUR DNA.
