A practical foundation for a migration plan that connects technology and business priorities. Here are some practical questions and considerations to help frame the next conversation.
What outcome are we trying to achieve?
Clarify whether the priority is resilience, scale, simplified operations, speed to market or another measurable business need.
What are our dependencies?
Map applications, data flows, access requirements and third-party integrations before selecting a migration sequence.
What does good governance look like?
Consider identity, environments, network boundaries, security responsibilities and cost visibility from the start.
How will we migrate safely?
Use phased planning, tested rollback options, validation criteria and clear ownership for changes.
Who will operate the environment?
Define the monitoring, documentation, incident handling and skills required once the workload has moved.
