The cloud has been getting a lot of press in the past few years—and with good reason.

IDC research shows that fewer than 20% of enterprise applications have been moved from onsite data centers to the public cloud, not because companies do not see value in the cloud, but because the process of getting those applications to the cloud is complicated.

The real problem is a lack of precision in observability—of workload characteristics in the data center pre-migration and of workload utilization and performance in the public cloud post-migration. The better you understand your applications, in minute detail, within the context of the environments they are moving from and to—a ‘know before you go’ approach—the less likely you will have to hit the “undo” button on your public cloud migration.
