Google Launches ‘Biggest’ Cloud Migration Program Ever: 6 Key Things To Know
Mark Haranas
Google Cloud’s new Rapid Migration Program combines Google products, resources and best practices with channel partners’ own cloud migration offerings aimed at accelerating cloud migrations faster than ever before. Here are six things every Google Cloud partner needs to know about RaMP.
Google’s New RaMP Deck
We’ve developed a RaMP Deck Google sheet to use as a single source of truth between our customers, partners and account teams to make sure we’re employing the correct best practices.
We’re creating great governance patterns to create consistency in how our customers and partners are developing their business cases, developing OKRs [objectives and key results], developing their training plans, making sure their cloud teams are leveraging the best practices that we’ve seen work with other customers, and are meeting on a regular basis to run that down with the customer.
So inside of the RaMP program, we’ve developed something called the RaMP Deck, which is like a workbench that our account teams and partners are using with customers who are executing large-scale migrations.
The RaMP Deck tracks what those OKRs are, what is our progress against them, any kind of risks we have that are blocking progress, what are the things that we’ve learned, and then reviewing that with our customers and partners on a regular basis to make sure things are staying on track. When we learn things or we have ambiguity that we face, being able to triage that really quickly is important.
