The Cloud Migration

Cloud migration" commonly describes moving from on-premises or legacy infrastructure to the cloud. However, the term can also apply to migration from one cloud to another.

Migration to the cloud is the process of transferring traditional or so-called on-premise databases, applications, and IT processes to the cloud or from one cloud to another. It is more commonly accepted that we speak of migration to the Cloud when the company moves from an on-premise architecture, that is to say, that it has its own servers and is generally physically on its premises or premises. 

Cloud migration is the process of moving business, technical, and application operations to the cloud. Cloud migration is much like a physical move, except it involves moving data, applications, and IT processes from some data centers to other data centers instead of packing up and moving physical goods. Much like moving from a small office to a larger one, migrating to the cloud requires much preparation and upfront work. Still, it usually ends up being worth it, resulting in cost savings and greater flexibility.

What are the main benefits of migrating to the cloud?

  • Scalability:

    Cloud computing can scale to larger workloads and more users much more easily than on-premises infrastructure, which requires businesses to purchase and install physical servers, network equipment, or additional software licenses.

  • Cost:

    Companies moving to the cloud often significantly reduce their IT expenses since cloud providers care for maintenance and updates. Rather than keeping things running, companies can focus more resources on their core business needs, developing new products or improving existing ones.

  • Performance

    For some businesses, moving to the cloud can improve performance and the overall user experience for their customers. If their app or website is hosted in cloud data centers rather than various on-premises servers, data won't have to travel as far to reach users, reducing latency.

  • Flexibility:

    Users, whether employees or customers, can access the cloud services and data they need wherever they are. This makes it easier for a company to expand into new territories, offer its services to an international audience and let its employees work flexibly.
