The AFRINIC Members Connect continued for our members with another series of insightful presentations on the second day of activity.

Abiade Dosomnu started with a presentation on the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework. Organizations today use several tools and services to migrate their workloads to the cloud. However, without a cloud transformational plan, moving workloads from on-prem to the cloud might not provide all the benefits of moving to the cloud. Abiade Dosunmu walked us through the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework AWS CAF which addresses these gaps.
