Before we identify IT issues regarding with Cloud Migration, let’s define first what is cloud migration.

recent years. A 2019 study suggests that software running on traditional servers will halve in the next
three years amidst the shift to cloud technology. A more recent Gartner 2020 survey found that 70% of
organizations using cloud services plan to ramp up spending due to changes brought by the pandemic. 

Cloud migration can help your company reduce IT costs, increase efficiency, improve security, boost
performance, and make room for innovation and development.

and manage the workloads. Thus, requiring less staff or up to no IT staff.
