Abstract

Cloud computing becomes need of the hour since it provides resources and allow users to store data beyond the capacity of their machines. In case machines are out of capacity, flow control is required to save from data loss. To overcome this problem, data migration to cloud comes to rescue. Performing data migration to cloud can be a daunting task, on the same time it facilitates the IT industry to improve in terms of infrastructure and architecture. The most common driver causing migration of data centre to cloud include: Capital expenditure reduction, reduced costing process, improving scalability and flexibility and improving security of stored data over the cloud. Strategies for data migration are researched over and this paper includes those techniques for evaluating and concluding best possible strategies along with future enhancements.
