# Cloud Migration

Most enterprises don't use just one cloud. Most enterprises are hybrid and or multi-cloud. It's a real struggle to cohesively deploy across that wide spectrum of choices. NanoVMs unikernels come packaged as the basic cloud unit of a virtual machine albeit a very small secure one allowing you to lift and shift from one cloud to another at a moment's notice.

### Cloud Migration

#### Embrace Hybrid and Multi-Cloud

- Deploy to any cloud public or private.
- Abstract deployments across multiple clouds.

#### Reduce DevOps Cost

- Unikernels embrace the VM model of deployment.
- Single system immutable images reduce costly mistakes.

#### Embrace Cloud Agility

- Take advantage of cloud deployments without sacrificing security.
- Take advantage of cloud deployments without sacrificing control.

### Ready for the future cloud?

Security does not have to be the nightmare it is. You've got better things to do than dealing with VM sprawl. Show everyone how you were responsible for halving the infrastructure budget. Be the winner!
