Quality Assurance in the era of cloud
Cloud adoption has become critical to IT optimization as enterprises continue to grow their cloud investments to push business
forward. A well-designed and solid cloud platform can easily overhaul your company’s operations.
Businesses may become nimbler, reduce inefficiencies, and improve customer experiences by migrating to the cloud. The need
for stability and flexibility has never been greater than it is today.
Businesses can move workloads from nearly any source and rapidly start reaping the following hybrid cloud benefits:
• Greater agility with on-demand IT resources allows businesses to scale amid unexpected spikes or seasonal usage trends.
• Shifting from an operational expense model to a pay-as-you-go method allows for lower capital investment.
• Enhanced security across the stack, from physical hardware and networking to software and people, with a variety of
alternatives.
Industries such as Banking, Finance, Stock, and Financial Services (BFSI), Health Care and Life Sciences (HCLS), Retail, and Travel
& Hospitality (T&H), have seen a remarkable surge in their key business processes moving to the cloud.

Quality Assurance in the era of cloud
Key business processes are moving to the Cloud
BFSI: Within retail banking and mortgages, key processes that migrate to the cloud include customer onboarding, KYC,
transaction management, and internet banking. In the wealth and investment banking sector, key business processes such as
portfolio management, market analysis, transaction processing, fees, and margin management have seen a surge in cloud
adoption. For Enterprise and Corporate functions, processes such as underwriting, collections, settlement, risk
management, and CRM have embraced cloud adoption.
Retail: Inventory management, Point-of-sale (POS) systems, CRM and customer data analytics, Website and recommendation
engine personalization, loyalty program management, and Omnichannel order fulfilment are some of the key business
processes adopted by the cloud in the retail segment.
A Typical Cloud Migration Lifecycle
The Cloud Application Migration Lifecycle is a collection of stages in a process for migrating traditional applications to the
cloud, analogous to the software development lifecycle.
The evaluation or the pre-migration phase takes the place of the requirements phase, while the migration phase takes the
place of the traditional development (or coding) phase.

Quality Assurance in the era of cloud
cloud migration assurance strategy may also be necessary to guide you in the right route for validating an unexpected or
unknown circumstance and structuring your efforts in the right way.
Automation is critical for infrastructure testing and sanity testing of migrated environments, resulting in a significant
reduction in the time it takes to supply the environment.
