## Transformation Matters

A digital transformation journey centers on more than just moving workloads to the cloud. It means adopting a philosophy wherein each application lands in the right environment, whether that's in a hyperscale cloud, an enterprise cloud, colocated or run on-premises or even at an edge location. It means embracing multi-cloud, not just multiple clouds, and it means striving to achieve a cloud operating model.

## Order Matters

Order matters. By taking a Cloud Different approach, our clients first optimize essential VMware workloads from on-prem to a cloud operating model on Expedient, subsequently exiting their data center and in parallel selecting a hyperscale provider to refactor or build new cloud-native applications. This approach has shown to significancy reduce the time to move to a cloud operating model, and more quickly reap the benefits of cloud.
