Define the Migration Scope
Establish which applications and workloads are moving, what remains outside the migration and what each part of the transition depends on.
Plan and implement the migration of workloads, applications, data and supporting infrastructure with dependencies, security and operational requirements considered from the start.
Most organisations considering migration already know why cloud is on the roadmap. The bigger question is what should move, how the transition should be structured and what needs to be ready before it does.
A migration can involve workloads, applications, data, databases and supporting infrastructure, with dependencies often extending into systems that are staying where they are.
SumCircle helps define that migration scope, prepare the target cloud environment and carry the move through implementation and validation.
Our Cloud Migration as a Service capability is designed around the environment being migrated — not around a standard migration template.
Where migration is the appropriate path, Cloud Migration as a Service provides a structured way to move suitable applications and workloads while accounting for the wider technology environment around them.
A good migration gives teams clarity before implementation starts.
They know what is moving, what it depends on, how the migration will be phased and what needs to be ready in the target environment.
We bring those pieces together so cloud migration can move from an approved initiative into a structured implementation without losing sight of the systems, data and operations around it.
Cloud migration should begin with an understanding of the environment the workload already depends on.
We examine existing applications, infrastructure, data, integrations and operational dependencies before defining what should move, what may need modernization and what can remain where it is.
From there, we design and implement the cloud environment around the workload and validate how the application operates within its new infrastructure.
Review the applications and workloads in scope together with their infrastructure, data, integrations and relevant operational dependencies.
Establish what needs to move, what will remain in the existing environment and which dependencies need to be accounted for during the transition.
Determine whether workloads can be rehosted, need reconfiguration or require modernization before or during migration.
Configure the target infrastructure around application deployment, compute, storage, networking, access and connectivity requirements.
Move workloads according to the agreed dependencies and migration stages rather than approaching the environment as one undifferentiated migration.
Confirm that migrated applications, data connections, integrations and relevant infrastructure requirements are working as expected before operational handover.
