Identify which apps to move

- [Instructor] An extensive application portfolio is 1000 plus application workloads with connected data. Successfully migrating large application portfolios to a public cloud requires thinking and planning strategically. So we strive to understand what we need ahead of time. To accomplish this, we'll need to rapidly iterate through feedback loops from user organizations. Automate, measure, and continuously improve the application migration process. And finally, make sure that we scale at an accelerating pace, meaning that you can migrate more applications in a period of time as time progresses. When moving from traditional application architectures to those that are specific to the business, you'll notice a lot of changes. An example of a big change is when applications where the database is tightly coupled to the application itself may work fine on traditional computing systems, but might have to be decoupled when moving to the cloud. But macro changes will also be occurring as well…
