The endorsement of priority at-risk technologies must be supported by the departments’ Application Portfolio Management (APM) data, readiness to proceed with the application modernization framework (described on this page), and the strategy that will be used to modernize (rehost, replatform, refactor, replace and to which hosting platform; data centre or cloud services)

This guide does not instruct an organization how to undertake its modernization journey, but instead is meant to be a catalyst for establishing the vision. These changes can be wide sweeping impacting roles, responsibilities, and culture. They are not undertaken in a year, but instead must be seen as a journey of maturity and continuous improvement.

While some organizations have started this journey years ago and are ready to go "all in" on cloud and the workforce are DevOps practitioners, others have not begun the journey.

A simple visual for plotting you cloud adoption maturity can be found here. Most organizations start small with a few low risk applications. A team of willing and keen developers from within your existing workforce would lead an initative to migrate those low risk workloads to the cloud. From these experiences they would use their learnings to train others to do the same. As the number of workloads grow, the need for more sophisticated methods such as automation and DevOps will need to be applied. This will facilitate scaling without impacting agility. Existing governance and roles will also need to evolve. An organization should review the [insert roles and reap document here] to ensure your organization is ready to undertake the required roles to support cloud services.

A [[gccollab:file/view/1994079/encloud-fitness-scorecardfr|simple scorecard]] has been devised to assess low risk workloads for cloud migration. This scorecard is meant to provide you a short list from which to further decide where to start. Any application can be migrated to the cloud with enough time and effort. The scorecard is meant to identify low risk and low effort migrations.

For organizations that desire to forego modernization opportunities, the decision to rehost the entire application portfolio to a new data centre provides that opportunity.

This is an opportunity to determine if Software-as-a-Service solutions for some of the COTS or custom built application you may have running today. Migrating to SaaS is an opportunity to access the latest version of that service and to lower lifecycle management burden. For example, if you operate a legacy email application, you may want to take the opportunity to replace it with Office 365.
