Cloud has rapidly grown from being a market disruptor to an essential strategy for enterprise, automation and business agility. But how do you foster a Cloud culture and reduce complexity at any stage? How do you reduce the time to build a new platform by eight weeks? Join AND Digital and Amazon Web Services (AWS) as we debunk migration myths and share lessons learned.

No migration is a simple process as it will affect changes to your organisational model and technical capabilities. Romy van Es, AWS, will dive into the key business drivers for moving to the AWS Cloud, the AWS Migration methodology and key services, and what enablement initiatives exist for customers looking to start their journey in the AWS Cloud.

Tina Howell, Cloud Practice Lead at AND Digital, will be demonstrating how AND moved N Brown Group’s monolith applications into AWS, reducing the workload from eight weeks to one hour. Diane Roland, Head of Cloud and Platform at N Brown Group, will then expand on the benefits of this migration. She will outline what is next for N Brown Group on their Cloud journey, whilst also exploring how to bring your existing team with you on a successful Cloud migration.
