Optimizing the Transition: Strategies for Migrating On-Premise Storage to the Cloud

In recent years, Cloud Computing has had great relevance and has aroused interest in the Telecommunications industry, due to the reduction of costs in hardware acquisition, maintenance and operation personnel. One of the great advantages of cloud computing is the automation of processes that makes systems more robust and secure by limiting the margin of human and operational errors. It is of utmost importance to consider the large storage capacity management of video files that can provide solutions to media companies or related industries, this is key to think about a cost benefit analysis that can generate the migration and rental of these services in the cloud, with more reliable and accessible systems, this will help us to study hybrid technologies that offer on premise solutions. In addition to the above, when talking about companies that seek to digitally transform themselves to achieve agility and resilience, as well as to support future applications, it is necessary to mention their current infrastructures that have the capacity to host new technologies that require high performance, security and an adequate digital interconnection that allows the correct access to the acquired applications. In this research, an analysis of the existing process models for migration from on-premise storage to the cloud has been made with the objective of identifying the most important challenges, from planning, execution, factors to consider when assessing the complexity of applications and data before migrating to the cloud.
