The financial benefits of migration and infrastructure modernization are becoming more and more of a decisive factor for enterprises worldwide.

Why migrate?

Maintaining SQL Server environments on-premises can become a significant financial and operational burden.

It requires continual investment in infrastructure and places heavy administrative responsibilities on DBAs and IT staff to plan, provision, deploy, and manage the database environment.

Feedback from interviewed customers confirms this, as they noted:

“We needed our DBAs and IT staff to focus on improving the customer experience and other things critical to our company, not on patching databases and trying to manage our own infrastructure... We were spending too much on licensing and infrastructure that was underutilized.” Chief Architect, financial services company.
