Task 3: Performing cutover tasks

At this point, you have completed the migration tasks and tested all of the servers and apps, and you are ready for cutover. Use the RACI matrices you created in the Foundation playbook for AWS large migrations to manage the tasks and ownership of each cutover task, and use your migration runbook for each pattern to perform the cutover activities. The following table is an example of how you might track and manage cutover progress. It is common to have multiple migration patterns in the same wave for different applications.

Task name	Wave	Migration runbook	Owner	Status
Check replication	Wave 1	Rehost to Amazon EC2	Jane Doe	Completed
Launch cutover EC2 instance	Wave 1	Rehost to Amazon EC2	Jane Doe	Completed
