Cloud Migration Strategies
Healthcare companies can use the following cloud migration strategies for moving their data and applications to the cloud:
Lift and Shift: This involves moving existing applications and infrastructure to the cloud without making any changes. This is the simplest and quickest way to migrate to the cloud, but may not take advantage of all the benefits the cloud offers.
Re-architecting: This involves changing the design and architecture of applications and infrastructure to take advantage of the cloud. This can involve breaking down monolithic applications into smaller, more manageable components.
Hybrid Approach: This involves keeping some applications and infrastructure on-premise, and moving others to the cloud. This approach allows for a gradual transition to the cloud, and can help organizations manage risk.
Cloud Native: This involves building new applications from the ground up to take advantage of the cloud. This approach is ideal for organizations that are starting from scratch or building new applications.
Regardless of the approach taken, security, privacy and compliance should be prioritized in the cloud migration process to ensure that patient data is protected.
