In this chapter, we identified what exactly is reason why companies make the decision to move to the cloud. Understanding these key drivers – agility, cost, security, governance, expansion, talent, and innovation – and their level of maturity within the company, will drive the final decision to make the journey. Once the decision is made, it is critical to define and implement the operating model, which will assure stakeholders, as well as change and project management, that risk and compliance requirements are managed and implemented to ensure success in the cloud. Finally, we reviewed the major migration patterns that will enable workloads to be moved to the cloud. While some organizations will skip the migration and start a fresh in the cloud, most companies will require this step, and it is important that they do it correctly. A cloud-first company will migrate existing workloads, but create all new applications in the cloud in compliance with cloud native architecture patterns...

Overview of this book
Cloud computing has proven to be the most revolutionary IT development since virtualization. Cloud native architectures give you the benefit of more flexibility over legacy systems. To harness this, businesses need to refresh their development models and architectures when they find they don’t port to the cloud. Cloud Native Architectures demonstrates three essential components of deploying modern cloud native architectures: organizational transformation, deployment modernization, and cloud native architecture patterns.
This book starts with a quick introduction to cloud native architectures that are used as a base to define and explain what cloud native architecture is and is not. You will learn what a cloud adoption framework looks like and develop cloud native architectures using microservices and serverless computing as design principles. You’ll then explore the major pillars of cloud native design including scalability, cost optimization, security, and ways to achieve operational excellence. In the concluding chapters, you will also learn about various public cloud architectures ranging from AWS and Azure to the Google Cloud Platform.
By the end of this book, you will have learned the techniques to adopt cloud native architectures that meet your business requirements. You will also understand the future trends and expectations of cloud providers.
