What is Cloud Migration?

Cloud Migration is the process of moving applications, data, and IT resources from on-premises systems to cloud infrastructure. It can be a full lift-and-shift or involve rearchitecting applications for the cloud.

Why Cloud Migration matters for Australian businesses

Cloud computing has become the backbone of modern business IT, offering flexibility, scalability, and cost efficiency that on-premises infrastructure cannot match. For Australian businesses, understanding cloud terminology helps you make informed decisions about which services to adopt and how to optimise your cloud spend.

For small and medium businesses in particular, cloud migration plays a key role in maintaining a secure, efficient, and resilient IT environment. Whether you are reviewing your current setup or planning improvements, understanding cloud migration will help you have more informed conversations with your IT provider and make better decisions for your business.
