The CloudWorks Migration and Modernization Initiative focuses on establishing a shared services capability team to assist various businesses within the Customer segment in migrating their workloads to the cloud. Initially targeting Amazon Web Services (AWS), the initiative plans to expand to accommodate Google Cloud Platform(GCP), Microsoft Azure, and other cloud providers in the future. 

The core objective is to modernize applications by leveraging cloud-native features to enhance performance, scalability, and operational efficiency, adhering to best practices. Unlike a simple ‘Lift and Shift’ migration, this approach ensures the applications are optimized for the cloud environment. Upon reaching the cutover phase, applications will be handed over to their respective owners within Optum. 

The migration pod will then transition to the next application in the queue for modernization and migration. The initiative aims to sustain multiple pods operating concurrently to ensure continuous modernization and migration of applications across various cloud platforms.
