This guide is general information and does not replace a scoped technical, security, legal, financial, or compliance assessment.
What to examine
- Discovery and assessment
- Architecture and security design
- Connectivity and data transfer
- Migration tooling and specialist effort
- Testing and business participation
- Parallel-running period
- Training and documentation
- Ongoing cloud operations and support
What to do next
Include contingency for unknown dependencies and remediation. Separate one-time transformation cost from ongoing operating cost, then test the model against growth, availability, recovery, and security requirements.
Recommended next step
Run a structured discovery and cloud readiness assessment before selecting target services or committing to a migration schedule.
