Cloud Migration Planning

Here's a practical framework for moving workloads to AWS, Azure, or GCP without turning it into a six-month disaster. You get assessment tools to categorize apps by complexity and migration strategy (lift-and-shift, replatform, refactor), database migration patterns, Terraform templates for infrastructure provisioning, and cutover checklists. The strength here is the structured approach to dependency mapping and the emphasis on running systems in parallel during transition. It won't make the organizational politics easier, but it gives you the technical scaffolding to plan realistic timelines and catch the gotchas before cutover day.
