Conclusion A large-scale migration project is a transformation effort that requires careful analysis, planning, development of the required automation, and flawless exe- cution. CTP’s Application Migration Framework (AMF) is an extension of the Cloud Adoption Program (CAP) developed to address the multiple challenges and use cases encountered when migrating large portfolios of enterprise appli- cations in a short period of time. It can take years to develop and refine the knowledge, skills, tooling and processes to quickly and efficiently migrate large application portfolios. AMF helps organizations significantly reduce the time needed to migrate applications. In summary, embracing each of these six enablers addresses all challenges quickly and more easily, encouraging enterprises to realize the benefits of adopting cloud. The six enablers promote fundamental change and deliver results by addressing a broad range of key stakeholder needs.
