Course Outline
1. Migration Strategy and Business Drivers
- Understanding the motivations behind cloud migration and defining success metrics.
- Exploring key migration patterns: rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retire, and retain.
- Establishing clear objectives, KPIs, and organizational responsibilities for migration programs.
2. Discovery, Assessment, and Planning
- Gathering inventory, mapping dependencies, and grouping applications for migration.
- Evaluating cloud readiness and determining appropriate resource sizing.
- Prioritizing applications, structuring migration waves, and conducting risk assessments.
3. Network, Security, and Landing Zone Considerations
- Designing VPCs, evaluating connectivity options (VPN, Direct Connect), and implementing hybrid patterns.
- Managing identity, access controls, encryption, and governance throughout the migration lifecycle.
- Defining account strategies, landing zones, and baseline security guardrails.
4. Server Migration with AWS Application Migration Service (MGN)
- Understanding MGN architecture, replication mechanics, and configuration settings.
- Testing replicated servers, executing test cutovers, and validating application integrity.
- Performing final cutover, conducting post-cutover checks, and planning rollback scenarios.
5. Database Migration and Data Transfer
- Mastering DMS concepts: full load, change data capture (CDC), and continuous replication.
- Addressing schema conversion needs and implementing rigorous data validation strategies.
- Exploring bulk transfer options such as DataSync, the Snow family, and secure network transfers.
6. Application Modernization and Refactoring Options
- Determining when to replatform or refactor using containers, serverless architectures, and managed services.
- Applying design patterns for modernized architectures, including microservices and event-driven systems.
- Implementing gradual migration approaches such as the strangler pattern and hybrid coexistence.
7. Testing, Cutover, and Operational Readiness
- Developing test plans, benchmarking performance, and conducting QA validation.
- Coordinating cutover activities, DNS management, and traffic switching strategies.
- Preparing operational runbooks, backup strategies, monitoring setups, and incident response plans.
8. Cost Optimization, Performance Tuning, and Post-Migration Tasks
- Rightsizing resources, utilizing savings plans, and establishing cost governance post-migration.
- Tuning performance, configuring autoscaling, and managing storage lifecycles.
- 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 a migration wave for sample workloads.
- Replicate a server using MGN and perform a test cutover.
- Migrate a sample database using DMS and verify the results.
- Complete the final cutover, validate services, and document the outcomes.
