Migrating into the cloud is a process, and it takes a lot of work to get things migrated into AWS (or any cloud provider).
Module 9 - AWS Cloud Adoption Framework (AWS CAF)
AWS Cloud Adoption Framework (AWS CAF) provides advice to companies in 6 areas, focused on the people type that you will need for the migration
- Business
- People
- Governance
- Platform
- Security
- Operations
AWS CAF Action Plan keeps your organization on track during the migration process.
Module 9 - Migration strategies
The 6R’s:
- Re-hosting (lift-and-shift) - moving applications without changes
- Re-platforming (lift, tinker, and shift) - involves making a few cloud optimizations to see the benefits
- Retire - removing applications that are no longer needed
- Retain - keeps applications that are critical for the business in the source environment
- Re-purchasing - a fresh start, moving from a traditional license to a software-as-a-service model, from an old product to a new one
- Refactoring - Driven by a strong business need to add features, it involves changes in the code of current applications to support cloud solutions
