For this assessment, select a business (either the one you work for now, or one with which you are familiar), and determine what services are currently provided in-house which may benefit from migrating to a cloud service.

Examples may include data storage for collaboration and file sharing (Sharepoint), email, web services, server virtualization, etc.

Research potential benefits associated with the proposed cloud service, and determine a rough estimate of cost for budgetary purposes.

Write a brief 3 page IWG-formatted paper addressed to the business leader who would approve the migration (this person can be fictitious), presenting the business justification for the proposal.

The paper should include a brief background to the business with the current system in place, a discussion of the proposed cloud service, and an overall idea of the timeline and cost required to migrate.
