Course Outline
1. Migration Strategy and Business Drivers
- Understanding the motivations behind cloud migration and defining success metrics.
- Exploring migration patterns: rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retire, and retain.
- Establishing clear objectives, KPIs, and organizational roles for migration programs.
2. Discovery, Assessment, and Planning
- Gathering inventory data, mapping dependencies, and grouping applications.
- Evaluating cloud readiness and determining the appropriate size for target resources.
- Prioritizing applications, structuring migration waves, and conducting risk assessments.
3. Network, Security, and Landing Zone Considerations
- Designing VPCs, selecting connectivity options (VPN, Direct Connect), and implementing hybrid patterns.
- Managing identity, access controls, encryption, and governance throughout the migration.
- Defining account strategies, configuring landing zones, and setting baseline guardrails.
4. Server Migration with AWS Application Migration Service (MGN)
- Understanding MGN architecture, replication mechanisms, and configuration settings.
- Testing replicated servers, executing test cutovers, and verifying application functionality.
- Managing final cutover procedures, performing post-cutover checks, and planning rollbacks.
5. Database Migration and Data Transfer
- Key DMS concepts: full loads, change data capture (CDC), and continuous replication.
- Considering schema conversion and implementing data validation strategies.
- Exploring bulk transfer methods: DataSync, Snow family services, and secure network transfers.
6. Application Modernization and Refactoring Options
- Deciding when to replatform or refactor using containers, serverless architectures, and managed services.
- Applying design patterns for modernized architectures, such as microservices and event-driven systems.
- Adopting gradual migration approaches, including the strangler pattern and hybrid coexistence.
7. Testing, Cutover, and Operational Readiness
- Developing test plans, conducting performance benchmarking, and performing QA validation.
- Coordinating cutovers, managing DNS updates, and implementing traffic switching strategies.
- Preparing operational runbooks, backup solutions, monitoring setups, and incident response readiness.
8. Cost Optimization, Performance Tuning, and Post-Migration Tasks
- Implementing rightsizing, savings plans, and cost governance following migration.
- Tuning performance, configuring autoscaling, and managing storage lifecycles.
- Conducting post-migration reviews, creating optimization roadmaps, and documenting lessons learned.
9. Hands-on Workshop: End-to-End Migration Scenario
- Conducting discovery and planning a migration wave for sample workloads.
- Replicating a server using MGN and executing a test cutover.
- Migrating a sample database with DMS and validating the results.
- Completing the final cutover, verifying service health, and documenting the outcomes.
