Application Modernization & Cloud Migration

Assess your application portfolio

1. Identify & document application owner for each application

2. Use Surveys to collect all relevant data on your applications including – version, lifecycle stage, hosting type, technical fit, functional fit, and business criticality.

3. Categorize applications based on the TIME (Tolerate, Invest, Migrate, Eliminate) methodology.

4. Determine the scope of your modernization/migration initiative

Evaluate the cloud readiness of your applications and identify best migration candidates

Assess dependencies impacting cloud migration with pre-defined Matrix reports and Data-Flow diagrams

Evaluate the cloud readiness of individual applications using the out-of-the-box integration to CAST Highlight

Apply the 6R methodology (Rehost, Replatform, Rearchitect, Replace, Retain, Retire) to guide planning

Prioritize applications into migration waves based on business criticality and urgency

Model your target landscape and develop a migration roadmap

Use pre-defined Transformations (e.g., change application technology, decommission application) to streamline and accelerate modeling

Compare the impacts of planned Transformations on your as-is landscape with dynamic visualizations

Develop a detailed, sequential roadmap for modernization and migration to the cloud

Start migrations and track the progress

Keep different stakeholder groups informed with customized dashboards
