Chapter 4. Justifying and Planning a Migration Project

Before you can begin addressing the technical aspects of a migration project, you must prove that a business case exists to support a migration effort. In addition, you must begin building an infrastructure for the work that will be done during the architect, implement, and manage phases of the project.

This chapter presents the following sections to address these tasks :

• "Establishing a Business Justification for a Migration Effort" on page 43

• "Planning Your Migration Project" on page 52

• "Closing the Project" on page 64
