16 · Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common cloud migration questions

Cloud migration is the process of moving workloads, data, and applications from on-premises to the cloud — using the 6Rs (Rehost, Replatform, Refactor, Repurchase, Retain, Retire) with wave-based, zero-downtime cutovers and tested rollback plans.
