A bare-metal server versus a cloud server: not a dilemma anymore. Specialists know that both have their pros and cons, and they make the choice depending on each client’s needs. Clients, however, are not always aware of the risks of cloud migration.

Also, they often believe that by paying the provider of cloud services the same amount of money as other clients do, they will get the same hardware behind the cloud. One of the greatest risks, however, is that you don’t actually know the system’s limitations. By testing your system in the cloud, you can avoid most migration risks and save money in the long run. Wild Apricot is a case in point.

Wild Apricot is powerful cloud software that helps automate and simplify membership tasks. It is based in Toronto, Canada, and has held the top spot in the Membership Management Software ratings for many years in a row.

Back in 2016, they decided to move their systems entirely to the cloud. With 6 million users and 15 k communities (i.e., websites, each with a unique design and its own events and fundraisers, blogs, and forums), the migration risks were high. Performance Lab helped them get it done.
