Considerations and pitfalls when migrating from on-premises to the public cloud (sponsored by ThoughtWorks)

Cassandra Shum and Rosemary Wang detail what you need to know when moving from an on-premises platform to the public cloud, moving beyond the technical architecture and patterns to explore the pitfalls when migrating.

Enterprises migrate from on-premises deployments to the public cloud to increase agility and decrease infrastructure management. There are many patterns and best practices for how to move to the public cloud, including choosing a reference application with a less critical function and setting up an event-driven architecture. However, there are also pitfalls that can hamper the transition. Cassandra Shum and Rosemary Wang detail what you need to know when moving from an on-premises platform to the public cloud, moving beyond the technical architecture and patterns to explore the pitfalls when migrating. You’ll learn about upskilling your development teams for operations (and your operations with development skills), taking advantage of containers and VMs to avoid the big bang migration, and self-service. Along the way, Cassandra and Rosemary share stories that outline what to focus on and how to keep the journey on the right path. This session is sponsored by ThoughtWorks.
