Course Outline
1. Migration Strategy and Business Motivations
- Drivers for cloud migration and key success indicators
- Migration models: rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retire, and retain
- Setting objectives, KPIs, and defining organizational roles for migration programs
2. Discovery, Evaluation, and Planning
- Gathering inventory, mapping dependencies, and grouping applications
- Assessing cloud readiness and sizing target resources
- Prioritizing applications, establishing migration waves, and conducting risk analysis
3. Network, Security, and Landing Zone Strategy
- VPC architecture, connectivity methods (VPN, Direct Connect), and hybrid configurations
- Managing identity, access, encryption, and governance throughout migration
- Account strategy, landing zones, and establishing baseline guardrails
4. Server Migration using AWS Application Migration Service (MGN)
- MGN architecture, replication processes, and configuration settings
- Testing replicated servers, executing test cutovers, and validating applications
- Final cutover procedures, post-cutover verification, and rollback planning
5. Database Migration and Data Transfer
- DMS fundamentals: full loads, change data capture (CDC), and continuous replication
- Schema conversion nuances and data validation approaches
- Bulk transfer solutions: DataSync, Snow family, and secure network transfers
6. Application Modernization and Refactoring Pathways
- Deciding when to replatform or refactor: leveraging containers, serverless, and managed services
- Design patterns for modernized architectures (microservices, event-driven systems)
- Progressive migration methods: the strangler pattern and hybrid coexistence
7. Testing, Cutover, and Operational Preparedness
- Formulating test plans, conducting performance benchmarking, and QA validation
- Coordinating cutovers, managing DNS, and implementing traffic switching strategies
- Establishing operational runbooks, backups, monitoring, and incident response readiness
8. Cost Optimization, Performance Enhancement, and Post-Migration Activities
- Rightsizing resources, utilizing savings plans, and governing costs post-migration
- Performance tuning, autoscaling, and managing storage lifecycles
- Conducting post-migration reviews, creating optimization roadmaps, and documenting lessons learned
9. Practical Workshop: End-to-End Migration Scenario
- Conducting discovery and planning migration waves for sample workloads
- Replicating a server via MGN and performing a test cutover
- Migrating a sample database using DMS and verifying results
- Executing the final cutover, validating services, and documenting outcomes
