Overcoming the Challenges of Cloud Migration



Despite the urgency of IT modernization and the federal government's Cloud Smart policy, most federal agencies unfortunately still find themselves lagging when it comes to cloud migration and adoption. While cloud migration is a massive endeavor, it doesn’t have to be unmanageable, let alone impossible. 

Indeed, a lot of the hassle and potential complications can be mitigated, if not altogether avoided, by developing a comprehensive strategy for migrating mission critical applications to the cloud. In this session we will discuss important best practices you should consider before moving any mission critical applications to the cloud. In addition, we will discuss a “Bridge to the Cloud” strategy which utilizes containers and automation to provide the flexibility needed to adopt a multi cloud provider approach. This will be an interactive session with live demonstrations on application selection and prioritization, application performance baselining, and containerized applications running in both private and public cloud environments.
