Another goal can be to move the application to the cloud as soon as possible, by doing this money can be saved on the data center and maintenance. Also, this method requires minimal changes to the application.
After defining these goals, enterprises should then address the risks or issues with their legacy application. Organizations don’t want to go through the same issue again in the future, and hence research is crucial.

Some of the alternatives available to organizations are upskilling existing employees, hiring new employees, or partnering with a cloud migration organization.
