Enterprise Cloud Migration & Modernization with Harness Automation

Cloud migration has evolved from a mere tactical exercise of moving applications between clouds to a comprehensive strategic program that encompasses infrastructure redesign, governance enhancement, and cost management. Enterprises face challenges in this endeavor due to complex systems, compliance requirements, parallel operations, and varied CI/CD tools. Automation, as provided by platforms like Harness, is crucial in mitigating risks, ensuring consistency, and reducing manual efforts during the migration process. This structured approach not only aids in compliance and cost control but also modernizes delivery practices and strengthens governance, which is particularly vital in regulated sectors. As organizations transition, they often pursue cloud migration to improve performance, access better-managed services, or support a multi-cloud strategy, with a focus on creating predictable, auditable, and secure processes. The series introduces these high-level concepts and will delve deeper into technical architectures and financial operations in subsequent entries.
