Compare optionsCloud Migration Checklist
The eight steps we work through on every migration — use it to sanity-check your own plan.
- Inventory every workload, dependency and data store
- Classify data and map compliance requirements (PII, PHI, PCI)
- Choose a migration strategy per workload (rehost, replatform, refactor)
- Design the target architecture — networking, identity, encryption
- Set up landing zone, guardrails and cost budgets before migrating
- Migrate a low-risk pilot first and validate end to end
- Cut over with a tested rollback plan and monitoring in place
- Optimise cost and right-size once traffic patterns settle

What actually gets you audit-ready — condensed from real certification programs.

- Establish a repeatable risk assessment & treatment method
- Write policies people will actually follow
- Implement access control, MFA and joiner/mover/leaver processes
- Stand up logging, monitoring and tested incident response
- Manage supplier and third-party risk
- Automate evidence collection for continuous assurance
