Course Outline
1. Migration Strategy and Business Drivers
- Motivations for cloud migration and defining success metrics
- Core migration patterns: rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retire, retain
- Setting objectives, KPIs, and defining organizational roles for migration programs
2. Discovery, Assessment, and Planning
- Gathering inventory, mapping dependencies, and grouping applications
- Evaluating cloud readiness and determining target resource sizing
- Prioritizing applications, structuring migration waves, and conducting risk assessments
3. Network, Security, and Landing Zone Considerations
- VPC design, connectivity solutions (VPN, Direct Connect), and hybrid network patterns
- Managing identity, access control, encryption, and governance during migration
- Account strategy, establishing landing zones, and implementing baseline guardrails
4. Server Migration with AWS Application Migration Service (MGN)
- Understanding MGN architecture, replication processes, and configuration settings
- Testing replicated servers, executing test cutovers, and verifying application integrity
- Final cutover procedures, post-cutover validation, and rollback strategy planning
5. Database Migration and Data Transfer
- DMS concepts: initial full load, change data capture (CDC), and continuous replication
- Addressing schema conversion challenges and implementing data validation strategies
- Bulk transfer options including DataSync, Snow family devices, and secure network transfers
6. Application Modernization and Refactoring Options
- Deciding when to replatform or refactor: exploring containers, serverless, and managed services
- Design patterns for modern architectures (microservices, event-driven systems)
- Incremental migration approaches: strangler pattern and hybrid coexistence models
7. Testing, Cutover, and Operational Readiness
- Developing test plans, conducting performance benchmarking, and performing QA validation
- Coordinating cutover activities, managing DNS updates, and implementing traffic switching strategies
- Establishing operational runbooks, backup protocols, monitoring, and incident response readiness
8. Cost Optimization, Performance Tuning, and Post-Migration Tasks
- Post-migration rightsizing, leveraging savings plans, and maintaining cost governance
- Performance tuning, implementing autoscaling, and managing storage lifecycle
- Conducting post-migration reviews, defining optimization roadmaps, and documenting lessons learned
9. Hands-on Workshop: End-to-End Migration Scenario
- Execute discovery processes and plan migration waves for sample workloads
- Replicate a server using MGN and perform a test cutover
- Migrate a sample database using DMS and verify data integrity
- Complete the final cutover, validate service functionality, and document results
