Cloud migration is the process of transferring some or all your data, software, and operations to a cloud-based computing environment that offers unlimited scale and high availability. They need enough hardware to serve their anticipated volume and keep things running smoothly without buying too much or too little. Reduced cost.

In particular, recent research has begun to demonstrate that it is possible to perform security attacks on quantum computers. Otherwise, there is a risk of repeating many of the mistakes from classical computers where, for many years, security at the hardware and architecture levels was an afterthought.
