The team has been involved in migrating many customers applications and systems to the cloud (data center, one of the public clouds, or on-to one of the popular container systems such as Kubernetes or Pivotal Cloud Foundry). Along the way we have noticed certain patterns and anti-patterns, and learned some hard lessons about what should work, what does not work, and what just won't work, and pass them on.

This session focuses on real-world scenarios and problems teams are likely to encounter and talks about how they were handled, and what ultimately turned out to be successful.

You will learn:

  • Patterns and anti-patterns for migration and modernization
  • Common impediments and scenarios
  • How to spot problematic areas and what to do about them
