Course Outline
1. Migration Strategy and Business Drivers
- Understanding motivations for cloud migration and defining success metrics.
- Exploring migration patterns: rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retire, and retain.
- Establishing objectives, KPIs, and organizational roles for migration programs.
2. Discovery, Assessment, and Planning
- Conducting inventory collection, dependency mapping, and application grouping.
- Evaluating cloud readiness and sizing target resources accurately.
- Prioritizing applications, constructing migration waves, and performing risk assessments.
3. Network, Security, and Landing Zone Considerations
- VPC design, connectivity solutions (VPN, Direct Connect), and hybrid architecture patterns.
- Managing identity, access, encryption, and governance during the migration phase.
- Implementing account strategies, landing zones, and 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 validating application functionality.
- Finalizing cutover procedures, conducting post-cutover checks, and planning rollbacks.
5. Database Migration and Data Transfer
- Key DMS concepts: full load, change data capture (CDC), and continuous replication.
- Addressing schema conversion and developing robust data validation strategies.
- Exploring bulk transfer options including DataSync, Snow family devices, and secure network transfers.
6. Application Modernization and Refactoring Options
- Deciding when to replatform or refactor using containers, serverless technologies, and managed services.
- Applying design patterns for modernized architectures, such as microservices and event-driven systems.
- Employing gradual migration approaches like the strangler pattern and hybrid coexistence.
7. Testing, Cutover, and Operational Readiness
- Formulating test plans, conducting performance benchmarking, and ensuring QA validation.
- Coordinating cutovers, managing DNS, and implementing traffic switching strategies.
- Preparing operational runbooks, backups, monitoring setups, and incident response readiness.
8. Cost Optimization, Performance Tuning, and Post-Migration Tasks
- Implementing rightsizing, savings plans, and cost governance post-migration.
- Optimizing performance through tuning, autoscaling, and storage lifecycle management.
- Conducting post-migration reviews, defining optimization roadmaps, and documenting lessons learned.
9. Hands-on Workshop: End-to-End Migration Scenario
- Perform discovery tasks and plan a migration wave for sample workloads.
- Replicate a server using MGN and execute a test cutover.
- Migrate a sample database via DMS and validate the results.
- Complete the final cutover, verify service integrity, and document outcomes.
