Why “Lift and Shift” isn’t a shortcut, it’s a sequencing decision
Lift and shift is not about avoiding change, it is about sequencing it. Keeping the same data schema during migration preserves contracts, enables clean reconciliation, and protects trust. Redesigning the model at the same time increases risk and ambiguity. Migrate first for behavioural parity, then modernise deliberately.
