Assess your in-house resources
Cloud migration is a complex process. Before diving
in, you need a clear picture of your in-house resources
and capabilities. As you review your internal resources,
consider the following questions:
▪ Does your IT team have the skills needed to support cloud migration
and future operations?
▪ Is the team equipped with the right migration tools and technologies?
▪ Are they available to execute the migration, or are there competing
priorities pulling their focus away?
Answering these questions will help you uncover gaps in skills or
experience that you need to fill, as well as any additional support
required to complete the migration.
For instance, staff that are not experienced in cloud migration may
require training or mentorship. This can come from internal subject
matter experts, or you can hire an outside consultant. Identifying these
requirements ahead of time will help you avoid unexpected costs and
plan accordingly. Based on this information, implement an organizational
change management and training plan for cloud adoption.
