Our Takeaways From Gartner Research

Define Modernization Criteria

Establish modernization criteria for each workload. Move beyond simple lift-and-shift; prioritize workload placements based on these criteria. Since TCO is hard to predict, cost savings alone shouldn’t be your primary migration driver.

Evaluate Multiple Infrastructure Options

Modernize workloads by assessing SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, and other infrastructure platform options, prioritizing based on application KPIs.
