Cloud data migration is the process of moving applications and data storage into the cloud. A migration initiative may involve consolidating on-premises data warehouses in the cloud or building new cloud data warehouses and/or data lakes.

Why is Migrating to the Cloud Important?

Whether you’re moving existing data or building a new cloud data warehouse or cloud data lake from scratch, migrating to the cloud leverages the inherent benefits of cloud computing: fast provisioning, infinite scalability, per-use pricing, reduced infrastructure and IT costs, seamless upgrades, and rapid technology innovation.
