There are three types of transformations that can be performed in Office 365:
The staged approach refers to the technique where the mailboxes and user data are moved to Office 365 in two or more stages. It is typically used when migrating from an on-premises Exchange Server to Exchange Online.
Cutover transition implies performing the transition from a source email system to Microsoft 365 or Office 365 – all at one time. It is used when moving from a small on-premises Exchange environment or from a third-party email system to Office 365 Exchange Online.
Hybrid one is used when migrating from an on-premises Exchange environment to Office 365 Exchange Online and you want to keep some mailboxes on-premises and some in the cloud.
Each type of transition has its own set of benefits and drawbacks, so it’s important to choose the right one for your needs.
Microsoft 365 transition is the process of moving your data and applications from an on-premises environment to the Microsoft 365 cloud. You can implement this move by using a tool like the Azure Office 365 migration tool, which automates the process of moving your data and applications and helps you migrate from Office 365 to Azure.
Migrating to Microsoft 365 can offer many benefits for your business, including increased productivity, reduced costs, and improved security. As for the Office 365 migration steps, it is similar to any other transition from the on-premise to the cloud architecture.
