The application modernisation path is an excellent route, not only to modernisation, but also to innovation. It gives you the opportunity to not simply move your applications into the cloud, but also the ability to take advantage of the benefits cloud hosting brings, as well as developing as purely cloud native applications.
Modernising how you build applications (including changing-up existing applications) to become cloud-native is extremely powerful and will have a big impact on your operating model and outcomes. Innovation will take longer than migration or many other forms of modernisation.
