Application migration paths
Application migration to the cloud: deployment models
Cloud applications migration is aimed at moving software to a cloud environment to improve its agility and overall business resilience. When opting for cloud application migration, companies can choose between four common deployment models, each with its benefits and limitations:
Public cloud benefits:
- Pay-per-use pricing
- No hardware and infrastructure maintenance
- On-demand scalability
Public cloud limitations:
- Vendor lock-in
- One-size-fits-all services
- Lack of control
Private cloud
You migrate apps to a cloud computing environment dedicated exclusively to your organization.
Private cloud benefits:
- No compatibility issues
- Greater control over resources
- Improved security
Private cloud limitations:
- High costs
- In-house maintenance
- Limited scalability
Hybrid cloud
You decide what application components to shift to the cloud and what critical processes and data to keep on premises.
Hybrid cloud benefits:
- Environment tailored to business needs
- Enhanced data security
- Low downtime risks
Hybrid cloud limitations:
- Technically demanding setup
- Complex maintenance
- Compatibility issues
Multicloud
You deploy your applications on several public clouds from the same or different providers.
Multicloud benefits:
- Using the best of multiple cloud services
- Cost and performance optimization
- Low vendor lock-in risks
Multicloud limitations:
- Complicated management
- Security risks
- Compliance concerns
