Value-add outcomes - AWS Prescriptive Guidance

Value-add outcomes

Using this agile model, you can accelerate the path to achieving business outcomes and value drivers for operating at scale. Value-add business outcomes that are outlined in this agile approach include the following (see the agile migration process illustrated earlier in this guide).

  • Application selection – Analyze application based on the 7 Rs of migration.

  • Migration wave plan and migration tools – Develop a prioritized list of move groups with available tools.

  • Landing zone – Validate various components of your landing zone via deployment and testing.

  • DevOps – Deliver features, fixes, and updates frequently, using the DevOps model.

  • Automation – Use vendor tools for automated migrations.

  • Migration patterns – Use the available patterns in the AWS Prescriptive Guidance catalog.

  • Design architecture – Design target state architectures for server, data, and application migrations.

  • Training tools – Train resources on AWS services, and provide hands-on migration experience.

  • Operational runbook – Validate the operating model by deploying, monitoring, and reporting on applications that are running on AWS (see Modernizing operations in the AWS Cloud).

  • Governance – Manage migration scope, schedule, resource plan, issues and risks, and communications.
