| Fact | AWS Mainframe Modernization | Google Cloud Migration Center |

| Assessment | The assessment capability helps scope and plan a mainframe migration or modernization project. | Assessments can report total cost of ownership, identify application and network dependencies, and suggest Google Cloud destinations based on technical fit. |
| Purpose | AWS Mainframe Modernization provides tools to plan and implement mainframe application migration and modernization on AWS. | Google Cloud Migration Center is a unified platform for moving from on-premises or other cloud environments to Google Cloud. |
