When migration to the cloud leads to problems?
Due to lack of experience, it is easy to make critical mistakes that will lead to negative consequences for the business.

There is no dependency scheme between applications
If individual applications or services use the same database, then they can only be moved to the cloud in a complex, otherwise the business risks disrupting the usual performance of current tasks.

There is no migration plan (roadmap)
The plan clearly states what will be transferred to the cloud, in what volume and in what time frame. This is a consistent description of actions that will help to organize migration correctly, avoid chaos, lost data, and business process shutdowns.

Migration without prior testing
It may turn out that the cloud service provider is not suitable for the company's tasks. To prevent this from happening, request a test period and familiarize yourself with the service in detail by launching a "raw" project in the cloud (not from production!). Evaluate the reliability of the service, how quickly technical support responds to questions, whether it is convenient to redistribute resources and perform other actions in your personal account.

Our company is expanding, so there are more documents. I work as an accountant at a factory and we need a cloud, now I'm looking to find a server that offers a service in the form of a powerful cloud on popular engines, a certificate is required. For us, the main thing is that this cloud works without delays. I now store documents on the cloud, which slows down and is very inconvenient to work with.

at the moment there are many companies that provide cloud services .. this is not only storing documents .. but also providing hosting for your website, database, accounting, etc.. for example:
you do not need to buy expensive servers, hire employees, make sure that everything works smoothly... it will turn out to be expensive and costly.. therefore, everyone makes decisions based on their own conclusions.. think and make the right decision..

The need to modernize operations following a merger or acquisition often leads business leaders to migrate. While this may seem like a smart move, the costs and disruptions may outweigh any benefits.

If you don't have your own place to store a lot of data, then cloud storage is a good way out. You don't need to maintain staff and equipment. And data that has no value but needs to be saved can be safely placed in the cloud.
