Migrate to the Cloud and Stay Ahead of the Curve
Cloud migration means moving a company’s digital assets—like applications and data—from an on-premises infrastructure to the cloud, or from one cloud environment to another. Shifting from on-premises to the cloud to enhances scalability, streamlines operations, boosts agility, and improves overall performance.
Migrating to the cloud also drives cost efficiencies for businesses and enhanced collaboration for employees. It offers access to advanced tools, which drives innovation. In fact, most organisations see cloud adoption as essential for staying competitive and future-ready.
47% of organisations follow a cloud-first strategy for deploying new applications using public cloud services. 41% of on-premises applications are “strong candidates” for cloud migration.
82% of organisations say migrating to the cloud is a stepping stone to digital transformation. 62% have a cloud migration strategy in place.
Public clouds are more cost efficient than enterprise data centres. Migrating to the cloud can result in TCO savings of up to 30 - 40%.
75% of the predicted value of the cloud comes from the “innovate” component: Innovation-driven growth, faster product development, and hyper-scalability.

Scalability and Flexibility
Cloud platforms allow businesses to easily scale resources up or down on demand, so they only pay for what they use—and their infrastructure is ready to meet future needs.
