Course Outline
1. Migration Strategy and Business Objectives
- Understanding the drivers behind cloud migration and defining success metrics
- Exploring migration patterns: rehosting, replatforming, refactoring, repurchasing, retiring, and retaining
- Establishing clear goals, KPIs, and defining organizational roles within the migration program
2. Discovery, Assessment, and Strategic Planning
- Gathering inventory, mapping dependencies, and clustering applications
- Evaluating cloud readiness and determining appropriate resource sizing
- Prioritizing application workloads, constructing migration waves, and conducting risk analysis
3. Network, Security, and Landing Zone Architecture
- VPC architecture, connectivity options (VPN, Direct Connect), and hybrid deployment patterns
- Managing identity, access controls, encryption, and governance throughout the migration lifecycle
- Developing account strategies, configuring landing zones, and establishing baseline guardrails
4. Server Migration using AWS Application Migration Service (MGN)
- Understanding MGN architecture, replication processes, and configuration settings
- Testing replicated servers, executing test cutovers, and verifying application integrity
- Executing final cutover procedures, performing post-cutover validation, and planning for rollbacks
5. Database Migration and Data Transfer
- Core DMS concepts: full load, change data capture (CDC), and continuous replication
- Addressing schema conversion requirements and implementing data validation methods
- Exploring bulk transfer solutions: DataSync, Snow family devices, and secure network transfers
6. Application Modernization and Refactoring Options
- Determining when to replatform or refactor using containers, serverless, and managed services
- Applying design patterns for modern architectures, including microservices and event-driven models
- Adopting gradual migration techniques, such as the strangler pattern and hybrid coexistence
7. Testing, Cutover, and Operational Preparedness
- Developing test plans, conducting performance benchmarks, and performing QA validation
- Coordinating cutover activities, DNS management, and traffic switching strategies
- Preparing operational runbooks, backup protocols, monitoring setups, and incident response plans
8. Cost Optimization, Performance Tuning, and Post-Migration Activities
- Implementing rightsizing, leveraging savings plans, and enforcing cost governance post-migration
- Enhancing performance through tuning, autoscaling, and managing storage lifecycles
- Conducting post-migration reviews, outlining optimization roadmaps, and documenting lessons learned
9. Practical Workshop: Comprehensive Migration Scenario
- Conducting discovery and planning a migration wave for representative workloads
- Replicating a server via MGN and executing a test cutover
- Migrating a sample database using DMS and verifying data accuracy
- Completing the final cutover, validating services, and documenting the outcome
