Migration Without the Migraines: Enterprise Use Cases

Gartner predicts that “by 2020, a corporate no-cloud policy will be as rare as a no-internet policy.” Each organization’s challenges are different, but migrating to the cloud can be smooth and stress-free with the appropriate planning, service providers, and systems in place. By understanding the journey of migration, you’ll be able to avoid vendor lock-in, explore hybrid or multi-cloud approaches, and understand the importance of a reliable backup and recovery solution. By considering the “worst-case scenario” with your team and the relevant stakeholders, it will reassure the entire organization knowing that business continuity is your ultimate priority.
