# How Cloud Migration Improves Business Agility
The business landscape changes overnight. A competitor launches a new feature; a global pandemic shifts work to home; a supply chain disruption occurs. Can your IT infrastructure pivot?
"Agility" is the ability to move quickly and easily. Cloud migration is the ultimate enabler of business agility.
1. Speed of Implementation
Traditionally, launching a new application meant procuring servers (weeks), installing OS (days), and configuring networks (days).
**In the Cloud:** Spin up a fully configured environment in minutes using Infrastructure as Code (IaC). This allows your business to experiment and launch products before competitors even get their hardware delivered.
2. Elasticity: Scaling with Demand
Retailers experience spikes on Black Friday. Tax firms see spikes in April.
3. Global Expansion
Want to enter the Asian market?
4. Focus on Core Competencies
Unless you are a data center company, managing servers is not your core business. It's a distraction.
Migration allows your team to stop worrying about cooling, power, and hardware replacement, and focus entirely on building better products for your customers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
**Q: What is the first step in cloud migration?**
A: An assessment. We audit your current applications to determine which are "cloud-ready" and which need refactoring.
**Q: Is it expensive to move data to the cloud?**
A: Ingress (data in) is usually free. Egress (data out) costs money. The main cost is the migration labor.
**Q: What if the internet goes down?**
A: Modern businesses use redundant internet connections (fiber + 5G backup) to ensure they always have access to their cloud resources.
