I think you're wrong -- containers aren't ready for legacy enterprise, VMs are a better choice of abstraction for an initial move to cloud. Get your data centers all running VMWare, then VMDK import to AWS AMIs, then wrap them all in autoscaling groups, figure out where the SPOFs have moved to, and only then start moving to containers. In the mean time, all new development happens on serverless. Don't let anything new connect to a legacy database directly, only via API at worst, or preferably via events.
