Many companies are moving to the cloud only to realize that they aren’t getting the cloud benefits. Not only are they not able to improve performance and scalability, but they’re also paying more than they were before. The reality is that the economic drivers pushing these companies into the cloud, inevitably lead to large lift and shifts where monolithic, legacy applications get moved to the cloud without the necessary modernization required to reap the rewards of cloud migration.

Today, those same companies that moved to the cloud are looking to move back on-prem or toward a hybrid environment to cut costs, but what if there’s another way? What if you could strategically refactor your applications after they’ve been moved to the cloud and rescue your cloud initiative? Learn how cloud rescue can get you the benefits of the cloud while reducing costs.

For many organizations, cloud costs are spiraling out of control, causing them to rethink their cloud commitment. Some are exiting the cloud altogether and moving back on-prem. But what if there was a different way? An iterative and incremental way to start reaping the benefits of the cloud today without disrupting innovation or performance. In this panel discussion, we explore how LeadingAgile helps our clients reduce their cloud spend and economically justify transformation without disrupting things like innovation and performance.
