Review your current infrastructure with Cloud Migration Assessment
Use the holistic view of all discovered resources to assess your infrastructure. You can also drill in and see detailed information on all discovered resources. Understanding which resources your organization uses is an important step in planning the migration process.
Before you begin
Ensure that Discovery successfully ran horizontal discovery on the relevant segment of your IT infrastructure.
If there are third-party discovery applications, make sure that they entered the discovered information into the Configuration Management Database (CMDB).

About this task
Cloud Migration Assessment builds on the information that Discovery finds and stores in the CMDB. It also uses probes to discover information necessary for the cloud migration process. Cloud Migration Assessment can display the information that third-party discovery applications find. It means that if your organization deploys such applications, you can get an all-inclusive view of your infrastructure.
You can view at a glance the number of deployed servers, applications, and virtual machines (VMs). The Overview tab presents servers by class.

Review the summary of the discovered resources on the
Overview tab.
Figure 1. Overview tab showing information about servers By default the Overview tab shows only the categories that have discovered information for these categories. The category is hidden unless there is related information to display for it. For example, if there is no discovered information on Amazon AWS Cloud resources, the AWS category does not appear under the Categories filter.
