The Digital Twin Of The Enterprise (DTE): Leveraging AI To Simulate Cloud Migration And Platform Modernization Scenarios

Abstract

Substantial organizational technology transformation efforts, particularly those addressing cloud platform transitions, system unification projects, and obsolete infrastructure elimination, introduce considerable operational and financial exposure to enterprises. The Digital Twin of the Enterprise presents an advancement in methodology: a detailed, continuously updated, and functionally operational virtual construct representing organizational technology assets and operational processes. By maintaining perpetual information synchronization and employing intelligent analytical forecasting, the DTE permits technology strategists to assess complex renovation pathways with empirical assurance, enabling uninterrupted operational transitions while minimizing unanticipated technical and budgetary complications. This article addresses the structural elements supporting the DTE, demonstrates functional applications in assessing renovation alternatives, and chronicles a platform elimination and unification project that exemplifies the revolutionary potential of this technique in technology governance structures.
