# Migrating VM

A Migrating VM in Google Cloud is a virtual machine that is in the process of being moved from one host or environment to another. This typically occurs during live migration, maintenance, or resource optimization. The VM continues running while its memory and state are transferred, minimizing downtime and ensuring workload continuity.
