Cloud Migration 101

Introduction

Here’s something that won’t surprise you: DevOps is moving to the cloud. Organizations across industries are investing tons of resources in cloud technologies, and have been for some time. According to Statista, half of organizations have workloads in the public cloud already, and 7 percent are expected to migrate more workloads in the next 12 months.

Here’s something else that won’t surprise you: To deploy cloud workloads, you need to expand your DevOps infrastructure to the cloud as well – it’s just common sense. Last year alone, we migrated hundreds of customers and nearly 5 PB of data from self-managed, on-prem to hybrid or multi-cloud environments.

In this white paper, we’ll discuss the reasons we see customers adopting cloud-centered DevOps, the most successful cloud migration strategies, as well as cloud onboarding best practices we’ve learned along the way. Our goal is to make your cloud migration experience as seamless as possible, using lessons learned from helping thousands of customers migrate successfully.
