It’s a simple question:

How much is it going to cost to move an application to the cloud? But the answer is not simple, and many businesses suffer costly surprises when they make the move.

  • Server CPU, memory, storage, and monitoring
  • VPN and direct connect fees
  • Need for additional cloud administrators
  • Cost of moving data to the cloud
