AWS Transform setup
Begin your modernization journey by accessing the AWS Transform console and initiating a new modernization project. This step establishes your workspace and sets up the foundational configuration for your full-stack transformation.
Actions to Complete:
Navigate to AWS Transform service in the AWS Management Console
Select Microsoft Modernization from the service options
Choose Create new modernization project
Provide project name and description
Select your target AWS region (must match your SQL Server location)
Review and confirm project settings
Note
Best Practice: Use descriptive project names that include the application name and target environment (e.g., 'CustomerPortal-Production-Modernization') to easily identify projects in multi-wave scenarios.
