The Prep Work That Makes or Breaks a Cloud Move
Manage episode 505313546 series 3550261
Moving to the cloud is exciting, but it’s also a big lift. And the way you prepare shapes how successful the project will be. That’s the focus of this episode of RPI Tech Connect, where host Chris Arey sits down with Ken Foley, VP of the Infor Practice at RPI, to talk through the prep work that makes all the difference once a migration kicks off.
They dig into the questions every team should ask early, from figuring out what functionality you really need, to deciding between a phased or big bang rollout, to planning how data and tenants will be handled along the way. Ken also shares stories from real projects, lessons learned, and practical advice to help you head into a cloud implementation with confidence.
If you’re considering a move to the cloud or your project is already underway, this conversation is a roadmap for starting smart and finishing strong.
