A successful cloud migration comes with an enormous list of benefits. Amongst the top benefits are that it optimises businesses to scale, it’s cost-effective, and heightens the overall performance.
1. Rehost
Rehosting refers to the reformation of an application to a different hardware environment. It changes the infrastructural composition of an application. If your application is already on the cloud then rehosting becomes a significantly simpler task.
2. Refactor
The cloud gives businesses the adequate infrastructure to run the application. It combines awareness and speciality. By deploying PaaS it suggests that developers are able to reuse containers, languages and frameworks which have already seen investment.
3. Revise
This phase involves two steps. The first step is altering existing code. Once the code has been modified in such a way that it supports the needs for legacy modernisation. Following this, the next goal is to rehost or refactor the options to mobilise to the cloud.
4. Rebuild
This stage is all about rebuilding. So far, we have discarded the initial applications’ code, re-architected the application and now we are setting off to rebuild the solution of PaaS. By doing this, we are guaranteeing the loss of the cognition of the existing codes and frameworks.
5. Replace
At this point, we begin to replace the use of commercial software and discard the pre-existing application.
