Cloud Migration Readiness Workshop

16 hours

Once an organization has realized that digital transformation via cloud computing can enhance its business, the most difficult challenge is determining what workloads should move to the cloud and when. An organization must consider several factors to ensure it is prepared to execute cloud migration in an optimal manner. To streamline this process, we've developed a Cloud Migration Readiness Assessment to gauge an organization's technical readiness to pursue cloud adoption.

What to Expect

Our Cloud Migration Readiness Assessment is a 1- to 2-day engagement focused on gaining insights into how far an organization is into its cloud journey, understanding current cloud-readiness strengths and weaknesses, and building an action plan to close identified gaps. The workshop will concentrate on cloud foundations (IAM, storage, networking, security, compute) and potential cloud applications.

Outcomes delivered from a Cloud Migration Readiness Assessment include: 

  • A report containing strengths and weaknesses of an organization's readiness for a cloud migration
  • An action plan to resolve the identified gaps, so the organization can migrate at scale without having to pause to solve foundational issues
  • Recommended next steps to continue cloud migration

Goals & Objectives

Gain a greater understanding around the organization's current state of: 

  • Technical readiness 
  • Determine any potential gaps 
  • Identify opportunities for improvement 
  • Establish a holistic strategy for reviewing workloads to determine "fit for purpose" and how workloads might be optimized prior to migration

What is a workshop? 
A WWT workshop is a working session in which your technology decision makers, architects, engineers and line of business representation meet with our subject matter expert, engineers and program/process management to evaluate or compare how specific strategies and technologies could be deployed in your organization. These are paid engagements with a defined outcome and deliverable, e.g. action plan, high-level architectural design, proposal or quote for project implementation. The workshop takes place in person or via video conferences that last from 4 hours to 5 days.​
 
Who should attend?
  • Organizations new to public cloud 
  • Organizations with workloads in the cloud, but would like help migrating new applications/workloads to the cloud 
  • Organizations with a stalled cloud strategy
