Approach to VM Migration to GCP

A common perception is that migrating existing workloads to the public cloud, especially those with a lot of data, is complex, time consuming, and risky. However, choosing the right partner can help you establish best cloud practices to accelerate the process and lower risk.

  • Identify stakeholders from all internal departments.
  • Assess the applications that should be migrated.
  • Define the requirements that will impact the application and document them.
  • Shape a tailored cloud migration strategy based on your specific needs.
  • Plan the data migration in detail, along with the application migration steps with all the underlying dependencies.
  • Plan the testing strategy to ensure the accuracy of the migrated applications.

Execute the cloud migration plan. For additional safety, we include a backout plan that reduces the risk of negative migration impact. It enables us to seamlessly revert back the cloud environment to on-premises if this, for some reason, is required.

Finetune your new Google Cloud ecosystem. Optimize your operational usage to facilitate the adoption of more GCP cloud native tools. Reduce cloud expenses by using cost controls and governance tools to keep the budgets in-line.
