The push to rapidly deliver new digital services is accelerating enterprises’ plans for migrating to the cloud. But too often, the ability to execute on those plans is stalled by a shortage of IT professionals with the required skills. Digital transformation technology company WSO2 is helping customers overcome this hurdle with the introduction of the WSO2 Lift-and-Shift Cloud Migration Program, aimed at enabling WSO2 customers to move their on-premises APIs, integrations, and identities to the cloud in as little as five weeks.
Depending on a project’s complexity, WSO2 will either lift-and-shift customers from their on-premises deployments of WSO2 API Manager, WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, and WSO2 Identity Server to WSO2’s cloud native platforms or create a private software as a service (SaaS) operated by WSO2. WSO2’s next-generation cloud native platforms include the Choreo integration platform, as a service (iPaaS), which is available in beta, and Asgardeo identity as a service (IDaaS), which is now available as an early adopter release. Additionally, based on an enterprise’s requirements, WSO2 can provide a hybrid of on-premises, private SaaS, and full SaaS deployment options.
A typical timeline for a simple migration includes one week for assessment, two weeks for in-cloud and continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD), up to two weeks for artifact and data migration, and one week for verification and user acceptance testing (UAT) before deploying. In addition to enhancing agility and accelerating innovation, other key benefits of the program include a reduced total cost of ownership (TCO); guaranteed deployment; automated updates, CI/CD, and performance tuning; and a secure, zero-trust environment.
