Course Outline
1. Migration Strategy and Business Drivers
- Understanding cloud migration motivations and defining success criteria
- Exploring migration patterns: rehost, replatform, refactor, repurchase, retire, and retain
- Setting objectives, KPIs, and defining 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
- Prioritizing applications, structuring migration waves, and assessing risks
3. Network, Security, and Landing Zone Considerations
- VPC design, connectivity options (VPN, Direct Connect), and hybrid architectures
- Managing identity, access, encryption, and governance throughout the migration
- Developing account strategies, landing zones, and baseline guardrails
4. Server Migration with AWS Application Migration Service (MGN)
- Understanding MGN architecture, replication mechanics, and settings
- Testing replicated servers, executing test cutovers, and verifying applications
- Managing final cutover procedures, post-cutover checks, and rollback strategies
5. Database Migration and Data Transfer
- Key DMS concepts: full load, change data capture (CDC), and continuous replication
- Addressing schema conversion and implementing data validation strategies
- Exploring bulk transfer options: DataSync, Snow family, and secure network transfers
6. Application Modernization and Refactoring Options
- Determining when to replatform or refactor using containers, serverless, and managed services
- Design patterns for modernized architectures, including microservices and event-driven models
- Applying gradual migration approaches such as the strangler pattern and hybrid coexistence
7. Testing, Cutover, and Operational Readiness
- Defining test plans, conducting performance benchmarking, and performing QA validation
- Coordinating cutovers, managing DNS, and implementing traffic switch strategies
- Establishing operational runbooks, backup protocols, monitoring, and incident readiness
8. Cost Optimization, Performance Tuning, and Post-Migration Tasks
- Implementing rightsizing, savings plans, and cost governance post-migration
- Performing performance tuning, autoscaling, and managing storage lifecycles
- Conducting post-migration reviews, planning optimization roadmaps, and documenting lessons learned
9. Hands-on Workshop: End-to-End Migration Scenario
- Executing discovery and planning a migration wave for sample workloads
- Replicating a server using MGN and performing a test cutover
- Migrating a sample database with DMS and validating results
- Completing the final cutover, verifying services, and documenting outcomes
