Presentation
Migrating to the AWS cloud is a strategic step for many organisations. This one-day course gives solutions architects the foundational knowledge needed to plan and successfully carry out lift-and-shift migrations to the AWS cloud.
The programme guides you through the key phases of cloud migration. You will learn to assess your cloud readiness and support the transition using AWS assessment and discovery tools. The course then covers the services and tools needed for data migration and application migration. Hands-on labs throughout the programme enable you to put the concepts into practice.
By the end of this AWS Essentials course, you will be able to determine the most appropriate migration strategy, explain planning and mobilisation tasks, and describe the relevant AWS services. This foundational expertise will help you initiate and monitor your AWS cloud migration projects effectively.
