MAKING A MAJOR CHANGE IS ALWAYS DIFFICULT

Understanding the transition to cloud means understanding that almost everything about your technology stack and business stack will likely have to change, get re-invented, or built from scratch.

A BLUEPRINT FOR SUCCESS OR FAILURE THROUGH THE TRANSITION

1. To build or to buy? Do you understand the scope of the problem, the velocity of change this creates,and how well you can actually execute?  
2. How do you acquire, and how do you manage internal conflict?
3. What will the new technology stack look like? Are you using the same design principles? Are you using the same architects?  
4. How does this impact your business? What backstops (“cash cows”) does your business have to prop up the new business?
