Cloud Migration

Phase 01 Phase 02 Phase 03
Stage 03
Assess Build and Test
Throughout the build of the new cloud environment, it is important
to fully test the signed off migration before commencing the move
of customer data.
Configure and test connectivity:
Trial dedicated connections into critical cloud services.
VPN connections are a convenient means to establish links and
services during commissioning.
Build out the new cloud environments:
Build out each environment’s functionality, with minimum
resources, and only provide full capacity in the later stages.
Most public cloud platforms have functionality for nonproductive
use which limits the hours of use and sets cost
thresholds for test environments.
Documenting and implementing these against agreed baselines
is best practice.
Test, test and test again:
Testing is a critical function and builds confidence that the
subsequent migration will be successful.
