Operations Perspective
When migrating applications to the cloud, six of the most common migration strategies that you can implement are:
Rehosting
Replatforming
Refactoring/re-architecting
Repurchasing
Retaining
Retiring
This migration strategy involves moving applications without changes
Rehosting also known as “lift-and-shift”
This migration strategy involves making a few cloud optimizations to realize a tangible benefit. Optimization is achieved without changing the core architecture of the application.
Replatforming, also known as “lift, tinker, and shift,”
This migration strategy involves reimagining how an application is architected and developed by using cloud-native features.
Refactoring (also known as re-architecting)
This migration strategy involves moving from a traditional license to a software-as-a-service model.
Repurchasing
This migration strategy consists of keeping applications that are critical for the business in the source environment
Retaining
This migration strategy consists of removing applications that are no longer needed.
