What is this?
Enterprise cloud strategy aligns migration waves, landing zones, governance, and skills with business outcomes. It covers build vs buy, hybrid edge cases, and exit criteria.
Why should you care?
AwsVerse executives need a phased plan: landing zone first, then migrate payments, then decommission colo.
See it live — copy this example
Run in AWS CloudShell / local AWS CLI v2, or follow the matching steps in the AWS Console (Free Tier).
Resources:
LandingZoneStack:
Type: AWS::ControlTower::LandingZone
Properties:
Manifest: |
{"version":"3.0","organizationStructure":{"security":{"name":"Security OU"}}}What happened?
- CloudFormation snippet referencing Control Tower landing zone manifest.
- Real deployments use Control Tower console or AFT; this shows IaC intent for org structure.
Practice next
- Define 3 migration waves with owners and dates.
- Stand up Organizations, SCPs, and a logging account.
- Pick one pilot app (read-heavy) for wave 1.
- Draft one SCP denying unapproved regions.
- List top 5 apps by revenue for wave order.
Remember
Landing zone before app migration. Wave-based migration reduces risk. Measure business KPIs, not just VMs moved.
AwsVerse 3-year roadmap
Board asks for cloud ROI timeline.
Outcome: Wave plan shows 40% colo exit by year 2 with measurable savings.
