Create an IT modernization roadmap for migrating legacy systems to cloud
About the framework
This Gantt example groups 12 tasks into Assessment, Foundation, and Migration. It starts on January 6, 2026, with an infrastructure audit and application inventory. Readiness scoring leads to a strategy document, then landing-zone work and CI/CD setup begin in parallel.
The migration sequence runs through Tier 3 lift and shift, Tier 2 refactoring, Tier 1 re-architecture, and legacy decommissioning. Identity management and network connectivity follow the landing zone, although only identity management is an explicit predecessor of the first migration task. Durations and completion markers are sample planning choices.
Adapt the tiers to your application inventory and replace the dates with your migration window. Ask for missing readiness gates, rollback tasks, and workload owners before using the chart to coordinate a cutover.

Frequently asked questions
No. The example ends each migration step by moving forward. Add rollback criteria, recovery tasks, and a decision owner for each workload.
The sample assigns Tier 3 to lift and shift, Tier 2 to refactoring, and Tier 1 to re-architecture. Replace those labels if your application portfolio uses another classification.
No. The assessment tasks are marked done and the landing zone active in the example. Update every status and duration to reflect your own project.
