Refactoring is re-architecting and re-programming applications to function in the cloud. We believe refactoring for the cloud is a smart strategy for long-term success in technology.
Many organizations start moving to the cloud using a lift & shift migration with one or more of their applications. Lift & shift, or rehosting, means moving a workload from on premise to the cloud with minimal modification.
At Webapper, we help clients build and host their web applications. Over the past 20 years, we've been a part of the evolution and adoption of Software as a Service (SaaS) in a variety of industries, from automotive to healthcare to finance. Being 'grey beards' in this space, we've been through it all, and that's why we wanted to share our knowledge of SaaS, in the form of SaaS Hosting 101.
As painful as it can be, we present the case for why we think ColdFusion 2021 might be an off-ramp from Adobe ColdFusion.

At Webapper, we talk about cloud migration quite a bit. For us, cloud migration, especially to AWS, is exciting, challenging, and, well, essential to our business. Since we first set up shop in the cloud nearly a decade ago, we've been reaping the many rewards. That's why we've evangelized cloud computing, why we exited the traditional data centers, and why we've lashed onto AWS. If for some reason you're unsure, we've assembled a brief list of AWS cloud migration benefits. We think you'll understand what all the talk is about...
Cloud migration is an intricate process that requires extensive planning. A structured approach is mandatory for an effective and safe migration. Your strategy should define migration goals, set a timeline, and outline potential problems.
Modern technology offers a staggering number of jargon-laden offers. Although in many ways technology is more accessible, it's inherently more complex. And hosting is an area that reflects this. In addition to speed and power improvements, we've seen connectivity explode in this era, especially with the adoption of cloud computing. So to help you understand a bit more about what it all means, we'll explain what managed Amazon cloud hosting entails.

Cloud customer success depends on specific business needs. To help you decide which is more amenable to your needs, we outline key differences when comparing AWS vs. Azure.
