Why do companies face unexpected costs when migrating to the cloud?
Companies often face unexpected costs during cloud migration due to poorly planned direct-match migrations, which can be 10% to 15% more expensive than keeping workloads on-premise. A significant factor is that 84% of on-premise workloads are overprovisioned, meaning excess capacity is transferred to the cloud, leading to inefficiencies rather than savings.
What is rightsizing and how can it help reduce cloud migration costs?
Rightsizing involves thoroughly assessing and optimizing workloads before migration to eliminate overprovisioning. Companies that implement rightsizing can reduce costs by 30% to 60% by eliminating unnecessary capacity, such as 'zombie servers,' and accurately provisioning resources based on actual usage patterns.
What are the benefits of migrating nonproduction workloads to the cloud?
Migrating nonproduction workloads typically results in greater savings because their computing usage is more volatile, allowing them to benefit from the flexibility of the cloud. Additionally, nonproduction workloads often incur lower software licensing fees, making them more cost-effective to migrate compared to production workloads.
