Migration Strategy: Lessons Learned from the First-Generation of Cloud Migrations, and How to Do It Better This Time

Date: Friday, October 16th at 10am PT / 1pm ET

The public cloud has been a staple of modern computing for over a decade now, with Microsoft Azure dating all the way back to 2010. During that time, countless organizations have transitioned workloads from their on premises datacenters to the cloud. In spite of their best efforts however, these transitions have not always gone smoothly.

In this session, 19-time Microsoft MVP Brien Posey will explore lessons learned from first generation cloud migrations, and how those lessons can be applied in the future. A few of the many concepts to be discussed include:

  • Migration prep work
  • Application complexity and what it means for a cloud migration
  • Choosing the migration model that makes the most sense for your workloads
