Key Takeaways
  • Federal cloud migration projects typically require about 18 months for planning, preparation, and implementation.
  • Cloud migrations are complex, long-term initiatives rather than quick, one-time events.
  • DOD agencies must account for how existing network, DNS, and IP assets will be represented and managed in cloud environments.
  • The award of the JEDI contract accelerates the need for DOD agencies to define and execute concrete cloud migration strategies.
  • Early consideration of cloud management requirements is critical to avoiding operational issues during and after migration.

Cloud migrations don’t happen overnight. It takes an average of 18 months for Federal agencies to plan, prepare, and implement their cloud migration strategies. With JEDI now awarded, DOD agencies should already be thinking about how they will migrate and manage their assets in the cloud.
