Why do we need an application hosting framework?

An application hosting framework is enterprise language for figuring out how the company will move its current applications into cloud applications. There are some clear steps to this process.
The move to the cloud is already happening. In many cases the solution is a hybrid of cloud and traditional servers on site or in data centres.
Getting your strategy right to ensure you make the most of existing infrastructure and licensing is the key. This migration to the cloud needs to be of benefit in improved functionality or reduced cost or both.
It’s not about cool; it’s about getting technology right to support your business.
Getting the phasing right will ensure you get the most out of your investment to date, as well as taking advantage of emerging technology.
Now to make it real we throw in the question of who will provide services in migration and support to manage your risk and ensure your continuity.
Also consider security. What will secure your data in the new era?
