Migrate with Intention. Modernize with Impact

As organizations evaluate their virtualization and cloud strategies, many are rethinking how they manage legacy workloads in light of rising costs, limited scalability, and shifts in the technology landscape. This session will explore how enterprises can transition traditional virtualized environments to modern cloud infrastructure, while minimizing disruption and maintaining performance.

With the right migration approach, IT teams can align workload placement with business needs, reduce operational complexity, and unlock greater scalability and resilience. Attendees will gain insights into various migration pathways, cost-optimization strategies, and modernization techniques that support long-term flexibility and innovation across the enterprise.
