Course Outline
1. Migration Strategy and Business Drivers
- Motivations for cloud migration and criteria for success
- Migration patterns: rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retire, retain
- Establishing objectives, key performance indicators (KPIs), and organizational roles for migration programs
2. Discovery, Assessment, and Planning
- Collection of inventory, dependency mapping, and application grouping
- Evaluating cloud readiness and determining target resource sizes
- Prioritizing applications, creating migration waves, and conducting risk assessments
3. Network, Security, and Landing Zone Considerations
- Design of virtual private clouds (VPCs), connectivity options (VPN, Direct Connect), and hybrid patterns
- Management of identity, access, encryption, and governance during migration
- Development of account strategies, landing zones, and baseline guardrails for government
4. Server Migration with AWS Application Migration Service (MGN)
- MGN architecture, replication processes, and replication settings
- Testing replicated servers, performing test cutovers, and validating applications for government
- Final cutover procedures, post-cutover checks, and rollback planning
5. Database Migration and Data Transfer
- DMS concepts: full load, change data capture (CDC), and continuous replication for government
- Considerations for schema conversion and strategies for data validation
- Bulk transfer options: DataSync, Snow family services, and secure network transfers
6. Application Modernization and Refactoring Options
- Criteria for replatforming or refactoring applications using containers, serverless architectures, and managed services for government
- Design patterns for modernized architectures (microservices, event-driven)
- Gradual migration approaches: strangler pattern and hybrid coexistence strategies
7. Testing, Cutover, and Operational Readiness
- Development of test plans, performance benchmarking, and quality assurance (QA) validation
- Coordination of cutover activities, DNS management, and traffic switch strategies for government
- Creation of operational runbooks, backup procedures, monitoring systems, and incident readiness plans
8. Cost Optimization, Performance Tuning, and Post-Migration Tasks
- Rightsizing resources, implementing savings plans, and establishing cost governance after migration for government
- Performance tuning, autoscaling configurations, and storage lifecycle management
- Conducting post-migration reviews, developing optimization roadmaps, and documenting lessons learned
9. Hands-on Workshop: End-to-End Migration Scenario
- Perform discovery and plan a migration wave for sample workloads for government
- Replicate a server with MGN and execute a test cutover for government
- Migrate a sample database with DMS and validate results for government
- Complete final cutover, validate services, and document outcomes for government
