Course Outline
1. Migration Strategy and Business Objectives
- Understanding the drivers behind cloud migration and defining key success metrics.
- Exploring migration patterns: rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retire, and retain.
- Establishing clear objectives, KPIs, and defining organizational roles within the migration program.
2. Discovery, Assessment, and Planning
- Conducting inventory collection, mapping dependencies, and grouping applications.
- Evaluating cloud readiness and determining appropriate resource sizing.
- Prioritizing applications, structuring migration waves, and assessing associated risks.
3. Network, Security, and Landing Zone Architecture
- Designing VPCs, selecting connectivity options (VPN, Direct Connect), and adopting hybrid patterns.
- Managing identity, access controls, encryption, and governance throughout the migration process.
- Formulating account strategies, implementing landing zones, and setting baseline guardrails.
4. Server Migration via AWS Application Migration Service (MGN)
- Understanding MGN architecture, replication mechanisms, and configuration settings.
- Testing replicated servers, executing test cutovers, and verifying application functionality.
- Executing final cutover procedures, performing post-cutover validations, and planning rollback steps.
5. Database Migration and Data Transfer
- Mastering DMS concepts: full loads, change data capture (CDC), and continuous replication.
- Considering schema conversion needs and implementing data validation strategies.
- Evaluating bulk transfer methods: DataSync, Snow family services, and secure network transfers.
6. Application Modernization and Refactoring Pathways
- 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
- Defining test plans, conducting performance benchmarking, and executing QA validation.
- Coordinating cutovers, managing DNS changes, and implementing traffic switching strategies.
- Developing operational runbooks, backup protocols, monitoring systems, and incident response readiness.
8. Cost Optimization, Performance Tuning, and Post-Migration Activities
- Implementing rightsizing, savings plans, and cost governance measures after migration.
- Performing performance tuning, configuring autoscaling, and managing storage lifecycles.
- Conducting post-migration reviews, creating 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 using MGN and performing a test cutover.
- Transferring a sample database via DMS and verifying the results.
- Finalizing the cutover, validating service integrity, and documenting the outcome.
