5. • Business criticality (frequency of use, size of user base, supported business
process)
• Deriving consequence factor of failure
• Technology complexity (dependencies, fragility, understandability of the app)
• Deriving probability of failure
• Sizing (how many systems, data volumes, storage size, other volumetric
requirements)
• Deriving effort of migration
• HA/DR/BCP (continuity plans, availability requirements, backup/restore
requirements)
• Deriving pre- and post-migration effort (cost of support and keeping the app current)
