Course Introduction
AWS Migration Hub
AWS Discovery Services
AWS Server Migration Services
Course Summary
The course is part of these learning paths
In this course we will learn to recognize and explain the migration services available from AWS and AWS partners, and how to run a migration using the AWS Server Migration Service. This course is a blend of instructional learning and demonstration. In this course we cover the following topics:
- The AWS Migration Hub - which provides a simple way to manage migration of severs and applications.
- The AWS Discovery Services -we explore the AWS Discovery Connector and the Discovery Agent which enable us to audit and quantify a migration project.
- The AWS Server Migration Service - which provides a way to manage migrating vmware and HyperV virtual machines to the AWS Cloud.
Learning Objectives
In this course, we will learn to apply and use the migration services available from AWS.
First, we will explore the AWS Migration Hub service - which provides a simple way to discover, track and manage the migration of servers and applications.
Then we will learn to use and apply the AWS Application Discovery Service - which provides a way to discover and audit applications and servers running in both hardware and virtualized environments.
Following that we will apply and use the AWS Server Migration Service within the migration hub to manage migrating virtual machines from an on-premise or datacenter environment to the AWS public cloud.
Intended Audience
This course is suited to anyone running or involved in a cloud migration project. As a pre-requisite, I recommend completing our “Getting Started with Cloud Migration” course first so you have some understanding of migration projects and the benefits of the migration services to a cloud migration project.
Prerequisites
I recommend completing our Getting Started with Migrating to the Cloud course prior to this course so you understand the basic concepts and benefits of cloud migrations. If you are new to Cloud Computing, I'd recommend completing our What is Cloud Computing? course first so you have an understanding of cloud computing concepts.

- [Andrew] Welcome to this course where we introduce and get started with the AWS Migration services that are available to us to help us with a migration project. My name is Andrew Larkin, and I'll be your instructor for this course. Feel free to reach out to me or to my team at support@cloudacademy.com with any questions, comments or feedback you have around this content. In this course, we will learn to apply and use the three main migration services available from AWS to help us with migrations. First, we will learn about the AWS Migration Hub, which provides a simple way to discover, track, and manage the migration of servers and applications to AWS.
Then we will learn to use and apply the AWS application discovery services, which provide a way to discover and audit applications and servers running in both hardware and virtualized environments. Following that, we will apply the AWS Server Migration service, within the AWS Migration Hub to manage migrating virtual machines from an onpremise or datacenter environment to the AWS public cloud. Now this course is suited to anyone running or involved in a cluod migration project, and as a pre-requisite, I recommend completing the "Getting Started with Cloud Migration" course first so you have some understanding of migration projects and the benefits of the migration services to a cloud migration project. Okay, if you are ready, let's get started.
