What is Migration?

In the context of technology, 'Migration' refers to the process of moving data, applications, or other IT elements from one environment to another. This could involve moving from on-premises infrastructure to the cloud, upgrading to a newer version of software, or consolidating data from multiple sources into a single system. Common use cases include cloud migration, data migration, application migration, and operating system migration. The goal of migration is usually to improve efficiency, reduce costs, enhance security, or gain new capabilities.
