Migration Story

• Organization ‘ASquarezone’ has applications running on-premise and they want to run the applications/workloads from aws
• Teams
  • RAM and Team:
    • Maintain the IT, Backups and all the other infra in the on-premise Datacenters
    • Responsible for all the maintenance activities
  • John:
    • Architect who has to design migration
  • Steve and Team:
    • Cloud Engineers who will implement the migration as designed by John
• John’s Responsibilities:
  • Understand 6R’s of migration and need to come up with the Migration approach
• Steve’s Responsibilities:
  • Implement Migration
• What will we learn
  • Virtual Machines to AWS (V2V)
  • Databases to AWS
  • Possibilities for migrating the Physical machine to AWS
  • AWS Services:
    • Service Migration Service
    • Database Migration Service

6R’s of Migration

• Refer Here
• Rehosting (lift and shift)
• Replatforming (lift, tinker and shift)
• Rearchitect/Refactor (rewriting)
• Retain
• Retire
• Repurchase

Labsetup: Simulate the Migration

1. HyperV to AWS
   • To simulate HyperV Server, since we dont have physical hyper v servers, lets create hyperv server and 3 vms in azure
2. Vmware Vsphere to AWS (Physical setup)

Creating HyperV Server on Azure and creating virtual machines

• For creating Hyper V Server on Azure
• Install chocolatey
• Complete the Steps from here

choco install googlechrome -y
choco install vagrant -y
choco install git -y

• restart the virtual machine and login into powershell

vagrant box add centos/7
cd c:\
mkdir onpremise
cd onpremise\
mkdir tomcat
mkdir apache
mkdir iis
cd tomcat
vagrant 

• Create a virtual machine using vagrant in apache folder

cd C:\onpremise\apache
vagrant init centos/7
vagrant up
vagrant ssh 
sudo yum install httpd -y
sudo systemctl enable httpd.service
sudo systemctl start httpd.service

• Create a virtual machine using vagrant in tomcat folder

cd C:\onpremise\tomcat
vagrant init centos/7
vagrant up
vagrant ssh
sudo yum install tomcat -y
sudo systemctl enable tomcat.service
sudo systemctl start tomcat.service
