TEC37 Cloud Series E03: WWT's Cloud Decision Tree: What Everyone Should Know Before Migrating Applications

Event Overview

In today’s highly competitive digital landscape, migrating to the cloud is no longer a choice. Meeting the expectations of digitally-savvy consumers means maximizing cloud capabilities. Yet enterprises often find that migrating applications and workloads to the cloud can deliver uneven results in terms of added flexibility, scalability and computational power across a variety of use cases. If the wrong migrations tools or approach is used, even the most experienced cloud professionals can expect to encounter downtime, data loss or other severe consequences. In this TEC37, WWT’s Multicloud experts outline the decision-tree criteria organizations should follow for cloud migrations. You'll learn about our approach for identifying which applications are great candidates for migration, which are weaker candidates, and which should not move to public cloud — all while keeping your organization’s business outcomes top of mind.

What to expect

In this episode, our experts will cover:
  • The ideal approach to application rationalization/migration
  • Real-life business outcome examples specific to speed and agility, cost savings and new innovations when moving applications to the cloud
  • Criteria for which applications should move and the data needed to support that decision
  • Questions to consider when moving applications and data to the cloud
  • How to navigate the shift from an OpEX to CapEX model in the context of cloud computing

Goals and Objectives

After this TEC37, you will leave with a better understanding of the key role strategy and planning play in moving applications to the cloud, how your approach will impact the short- and long-term goals of your business and the importance of using the right tools to make the right application decisions.

Who should attend?

This event is most relevant to technology decision makers who have responsibility for cloud and data, including Application and Data Owners, Cloud Architects and Engineers, Data Center Managers and Engineers, VP of Apps, CDO and Developers. Also, organizations looking to embrace cloud, or who have already started down the path of cloud migration and want to make sure they’re using best practices.
