Course Overview

Boards are asking for measurable returns from secure legacy cloud migration, not demonstrations. Vendors sell cloud migration as a product; it behaves in practice as a change programme. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to this strand of digital and data-driven work in an order their organisation can absorb. Participants leave with a method for secure legacy cloud migration, not a set of opinions about it. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of the digital and data-driven work capability rather than to abstract argument. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for cloud migration. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting secure legacy cloud migration and under-invest in testing it. Practitioner evidence points the same way: cloud migration improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on this area of digital and data-driven work ready to put in front of a decision maker.

Expected Learning Outcomes

01

Plan the migration path for secure legacy cloud migration without an extended outage or a parallel-running trap.

02

Document the decision record for cloud migration so successors understand why it is built this way.

03

Define escalation and fallback for secure legacy cloud migration when the automated path fails.

04

Assess the current state of cloud migration against a structured set of criteria rather than impressions.

05

Establish escalation routes for secure legacy cloud migration that work outside normal hours.

06

Prepare a short, evidence-based briefing on cloud migration for senior management.

07

Quantify the running cost of secure legacy cloud migration — compute, licensing, and the people who keep it alive.

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Closing out cloud migration and capturing what was learned
