When companies start their digital transformation journey, they generally look for ways to modernize, innovate, and use the latest technology offered by major public cloud platforms, such as Alibaba Cloud, Azure, and more. Decisions on workload migration to the cloud are usually based on a combination of practical and strategic business reasons, such as:
• Shifting focus from managing infrastructure to innovation in applications
• Addressing limitations in availability, scalability, and agility often characteristic of on-premises setups
• Finding reliable substitutes for aging hardware or software nearing the end of life
• Implementing a hybrid architecture to tap into cloud services not available on premises
• Making sure to maintain compliance while strengthening security
These challenges and opportunities are reshaping business views of their application landscapes to push toward cloud platforms meeting their changing needs.
Cloud migration is the process of moving or migrating applications, virtual machines, databases, infrastructure, and more from on-premises environments to the cloud or from cloud to cloud. It is a complex process if you don't have a strategy in place. Many cloud providers offer valuable and useful services, but they lead to increased consumption and higher costs. In such scenarios, migration to Alibaba Cloud stands out as it provides efficient and cost-effective solutions that help organizations simplify and streamline the migration process while reaping the benefits of advanced cloud technologies and AI innovations.
