Why Your Cloud Migration Fails (And How to Fix It)
Discover the top 5 reasons cloud migrations fail and how to avoid them with proven strategies and tools.
❌ 1. No Clear Strategy
Many businesses jump into the cloud without a clear roadmap, leading to fragmented implementations and cost overruns.
Fix: Start with a Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) from AWS or Azure. Define your business objectives first.
💡 Tip: Establish a clear timeline and assign ownership for each migration phase to avoid confusion.
🔍 2. Underestimating Change Management
Cloud migration often requires changes in roles, processes, and culture.
Fix: Train your teams early. Involve stakeholders. Communicate change clearly.
💡 Tip: Use change champions within teams to facilitate smoother transitions and feedback loops.
💸 3. Ignoring Cost Optimization
Without proper configuration, cloud bills can spiral out of control.
Fix: Use tools like AWS Cost Explorer, compute savings plans, and auto-scaling.
💡 Tip: Add periodic reviews to your cloud cost reports. A small oversight can cost thousands over time.
