Excerpt

Migration Readiness Assessment

Step 1: Gather context

Ask the user:

What workload are you planning to migrate? Please share:

Workload name and code packages/directories to analyze

Current environment (on-premises, other cloud, colocation)

Business drivers (cost, agility, compliance, end-of-life hardware, etc.)

Timeline constraints (optional)

If context is already provided or you are in a codebase, proceed directly.

Step 2: Application Stack Discovery

Analyze the codebase to understand the current application stack.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
