Why Cloud Migrations Fail — and How to De-Risk Yours

Cloud migrations rarely fail for technical reasons alone — they fail on planning, cost surprises, and missed dependencies. Knowing the patterns is half the battle.

Common failure modes

• "Lift and shift everything" — moving waste into the cloud and paying more
• Skipping discovery — surprise dependencies break at cutover
• No FinOps — costs balloon without rightsizing or Savings Plans
• Big-bang cutover — no rollback when something goes wrong

How to de-risk

Run real discovery, migrate in reversible waves, rightsize as you go, and put cost governance in place from day one. A partner who has done it before turns unknowns into a plan.
