Rehost: This is the simplest migration strategy, where the application is moved
to a new environment without making any changes to the code or architecture.
Refactor: This involves making changes to the code or architecture to optimize it for the
new environment, while retaining the existing functionality of the application.
Replace: This involves replacing the existing application with a different solution that
provides equivalent functionality.
Retain: If migrating to the cloud doesn’t make sense for your organization at this
time, you can retain your current environment and revisit a move to the cloud
later.
