The Cloud Adoption Framework journey
Adopting the cloud is a multilayered process that extends beyond the implementation of new technology. It requires organizationwide change management, including executive support, clear business goals, a comprehensive workforce readiness plan, and the modernization of current business and information technology processes.
The OCI Cloud Adoption Framework journey starts with the business strategy and the people strategy. With those two strategies in place, the framework helps customers define their security and process design to transform their strategies and goals into reality with a technology and governance model and management and operation plans.
