How to be successful in lift and shift migrations
summary
Practical checklist and proven numbers: use CloudEndure for block‑level replication and near‑zero downtime migrations (free to AWS customers), choose EBS flavors like gp3 or io2 Block Express for cost and latency gains, and right‑size at source to cut storage by up to 70%. Examples: Defense Logistics Agency moves 200 VMs and 300 TB in 138 days, Qantas migrates ~200 apps (60% complete) and reports ~30% cost savings with automation and rightsizing.
