Frequently Asked Questions

A cloud readiness assessment evaluates your infrastructure, applications, data, dependencies, security, and operations to determine whether your environment is prepared for cloud adoption.
It typically reviews infrastructure, workloads, applications, dependencies, security, operational processes, technical requirements, and business priorities to identify cloud readiness and potential risks.
An application cloud readiness assessment evaluates individual applications to determine whether they can move to the cloud as they are or need replatforming, refactoring, containerization, or modernization.
Assessment helps identify dependencies, technical limitations, security requirements, and modernization needs before migration, reducing unexpected issues during implementation.
It can include cloud spend analysis, resource rightsizing, waste identification, pricing and commitment reviews, cost allocation, governance, and ongoing optimization.
