Moving to the cloud is about more than just servers — it's about your data. A successful migration starts with understanding your information landscape.
Inventory your data
What data do you have? Where is it stored? Who accesses it? Answering these questions prevents surprises during migration and ensures you don't move redundant or sensitive data unnecessarily.
Classify and prioritise
Not all data is equal. Classify information by sensitivity and business criticality. Migrate non‑sensitive, low‑impact data first to build confidence before tackling core systems.
Governance in the cloud
Cloud platforms offer powerful tools, but they also make it easy to create data sprawl. Establish access controls, encryption policies, and lifecycle rules before you migrate — not after.
Validate and optimise
Post‑migration, verify data integrity and performance. Then look for optimisation opportunities: right‑sizing resources, archiving cold data, and automating backups.
