3 mistakes in cloud migrations how to avoid


                               Now a day’s cloud migration is done by major companies and they succeed with cloud computing strategies and first-generation implementations. But while migration there is a bit of trial and error in the process, and one needs to do experimentation while cloud implementation and migration processes. The proper use of cloud computing technology is not something that one can find in a book. So here are the some mistakes done by companies in current cloud adoption efforts and there are solutions for these issues.
1. They jump to the technology too fast   
                The most common mistake done is while choosing a proper cloud service provider. Companies usually hurry in making discussion and don’t perform cloud readiness consulting, and don’t analyze their core business requirements. Companies should do proper planning before choosing there cloud partner and choose technology that suits their business and then adapt to cloud with proper consulting
2. They get involved in the cloud provider drama
             One should focus on the technology in terms of fit, function, and value -- not the hyped industry drama that continues to be a characteristic of the cloud computing market or should not get biased by  the cloud service provider that are not suited for your business
3. They focus to the wrong degree on security
            Security seems to have two extremes in the world of cloud computing. Some businesses focus too much on cloud security, to the point of being unreasonable. Thus, they spend more money unnecessarily. On the other side, some companies spend too little time dealing with cloud computing security. They end up exposed, and their cost of risk rises significantly. So one should opt for the security level according to the requirement by proper consultation.
            So the bottom line here is, pay attention to your business requirements and use that to drive your technology, security, and other decisions. But the reality is often that business requirements remain disconnected and many are out of track while they make decisions.
