The problem. You run multiple data centres with hundreds of servers hosting diverse workloads. The servers are of a dizzying array of hardware specs and configurations. Your data centres contain networking and storage devices accumulated over the years from too many vendors to keep track of. You pay an army of engineers to keep everything in your data centres humming day in and day out. Your OpEx budget is shrinking by the month. Your business users want more IT power every day. CapEx approvals are hard to get, even for replacing end-of-life hardware and software. Still you must consistently meet (and beat) cost, performance, and availability goals.
If this problem sounds familiar, then perhaps you've considered migrating to the public cloud.
The constraints. What's stopping you from moving right away to the public cloud?
