F&Q

What is cloud migration? 

Cloud migration is the process of moving your digital assets—like data, applications, and IT systems—from on-premise infrastructure (your own servers) to a cloud environment, or from one cloud platform to another.

Types of cloud migration?

1. Lift and Shift (Rehosting) – Move everything as-is to the cloud  

2. Replatforming – Make small optimisations during migration  

3. Refactoring (Re-architecting) – Redesign applications for cloud efficiency  

4. Hybrid migration – Some systems stay on-premise, others move to the cloud 

Is the cloud secure for small businesses? 

Yes—cloud can be very secure for small businesses, often more secure than traditional on-premise systems, but only if it’s set up and managed properly. 

Top cloud providers like Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform invest billions in security. That’s far beyond what most small businesses can afford internally. 

They provide: 

• Data encryption (both in transit and at rest)  

• Advanced firewalls and threat detection  

• Regular security updates and patches  

• Backup and disaster recovery systems
