- 1. cases that makes an application suitable for Cloud • cloud is frequently a collaboration or productivity application that sits at the edge of an enterprise because “edge” applications require less integration with other apps. • deciding which applications should subsequently be ported becomes more complicated because of the complexity of interfaces that exist within legacy applications. • This involves evaluating the cloud readiness of applications according to their age, quality, number and complexity of interfaces with other applications, and importance to the business. • the one that has more internal service issues and consumes more of the IT budget for maintenance and support.
- 2. Prioritised list of applications and a brief justification as to why you would prioritise these applications. • Cloud is the right choice for application development and testing. With zero capital cost and low operation cost, cloud can help organizations of any size and type with faster prototyping, development and deployment. Once the product life cycle is complete, organizations can relinquish the cloud infrastructure. • Batch applications are clouduitable – suitable for cloud. To make the process faster, even more instances of virtual images can be provisions to perform tasks in parallel. Only cloud can offer this capability of rapid provisioning of IT infrastructure. • Mobile applications can utilize cloud environments. Cloud computing can do the heavy lifting in the backend and mobile devices can leverage the elasticity and scalability attributes of cloud. • Disaster Recovery as a Service has been gaining traction among organizations. IT professionals are now considering backing up their data in secured cloud environments.
