There are various types of cloud migrations. One of the common models is the transfer of data and applications from a local, on-premises data center to the public cloud. However, migrating cloud could also entail moving data and applications from one cloud platform or provider to another — a model known as cloud-to-cloud migration.
Benefits of cloud migration services • The main purpose of existence or benefit of any cloud migration is to host applications and data in the most effective IT environment possible, based on factors such as cost, performance, and security. • Many organizations perform the migration of on-premises applications and data from their local data center to public cloud infrastructure to take advantage of benefits, such as greater elasticity, self-service provisioning, redundancy and a flexible, pay-per-use model.
7 Types Of Cloud Migration • 1. New Cloud Deployment • Without the need to negotiate constraints that come with transitioning existing workloads, your business will be able to streamline, simplify, and cloud-enable its IT infrastructures. • 2. Cloud-to-Cloud Migration • It is normally done to cut costs. Moving from one cloud to another as become an easy process nowadays, with fast growth in technology.
3. Distressed Cloud Projects Various Cloud strategies are often mismanaged and need to be taken over by experts who specialize in rescuing struggling projects. 4. Lift-and-Shift Legacy Cloud Infrastructures It is a fast, affordable, and secure solution. It is an easy process as long as your application is suitable, you can move it to the cloud without changing code. 5. Lift-and-Optimize Legacy Infrastructures Under some instances, legacy applications will need architectural changes before you migrate them. Minimizing the deployment environment and redeveloping application functionality will let you take advantage of built-in services including auto-scaling, managed services.
6. Hybrid IT and Cloud Infrastructures It can give you a more gradual transition to the cloud, letting you maintain your existing infrastructure while taking advantage of the agility, speed, and performance that comes with cloud computing 7.

The time element will provide the ultimate answer about when you will be ready to continue with your cloud journey.
Some organizations will be ready to move on immediately, while others might need to spend a little more time on changes. A side benefit of performing a brief cloud readiness assessment comes from the exposure to the whole organization that you are considering the move to the cloud. The time spent performing a cloud readiness assessment at the front of your cloud journey will be some of the most valuable time in your cloud journey.
