Recipe Objective - Explain the features of AWS Migration Hub?

The AWS Migration Hub is a widely used service and is defined as a service that is a one-stop shop for cloud migration and modernisation, providing users with the resources you need to streamline and expedite their AWS journey. Perhaps users are trying to persuade their boss to go cloud, or you're compiling a data-driven inventory of their current IT assets. Perhaps they are preparing, managing, and tracking a portfolio of AWS-based applications. Users could also be updating applications that are currently running on AWS. In each of these scenarios, Migration Hub can assist users with their cloud shift. Migration Hub is a centralised repository for IT asset inventory data and migration tracking to any AWS Region. After users have completed the transfer, use Migration Hub to speed up the conversion of their applications to native AWS. All AWS customers have access to Migration Hub at no additional cost. Users simply have to pay for the migration tools they use, if any, and any AWS resources they utilise. When users utilise AWS Migration Hub Refractor Spaces, users only pay for what they use, plus any expenses associated with other AWS resources that Migration Hub orchestrates.

Benefits of Amazon Migration Hub

  • All steps of migration and modernization readiness are assisted by Migration Hub. It makes finding current apps and infrastructure, as well as their dependencies, easier, as well as assessing an applicant's ability to be moved and modernised and making recommendations for modernization plans thus it provides discovery, evaluation, and planning are all steps in the process. Many components of migrations must be tracked, such as the status of transferred servers or databases, which are often tracked using many tools. This is addressed by Migration Hub, which provides a central area for tracking the status of different components, making it easy to see overall migration progress and cutting down on time spent identifying the current status and next steps thus it provides centralized tracking. Using proven established workflow templates based on thousands of apps with comparable patterns that AWS has moved, users can speed up their application migrations. By eliminating many of the manual activities required in migrating large-scale business applications, managing dependencies across different tools, and customising migration workflow templates to fit the needs of unique workloads and use cases, users may save time and money using AWS Migration Hub and thus provides migration acceleration. Migration Hub streamlines application refactoring, simplifies development and operations, and allows users to manage existing apps and microservices as a unified application. For gradual refactoring, Migration Hub avoids the undifferentiated work of establishing and running AWS infrastructure. It lowers the cost of migrating apps to microservices or extending existing systems that can't be updated with new microservices features and thus provides application refactoring on the fly.

System Requirements

  • Any Operating System(Mac, Windows, Linux)

This recipe explains AWS Migration Hub and its features of AWS Migration Hub.

Features of AWS Migration Hub

    • It provides an Orchestrator

AWS Migration Hub provides Orchestration a method of process automation that uses templates, synchronises various processes into a workflow, and manages dependencies to meet the project's objectives. The AWS Transfer Hub Orchestrator is a tool for automating and simplifying application migration to AWS. Many of the manual chores involved in moving large-scale enterprise applications and maintaining dependencies between different technologies are eliminated with Orchestrator. To simplify the process of moving to AWS, use established and customised workflow templates with a prescribed set of migration tasks, migration tools, and automation options that orchestrate complicated workflows and interdependent tasks.

    • It provides a use case for building a migration plan

The AWS Migration Hub dashboard displays the most up-to-date information and data for your rehost and platform migrations. This enables users to immediately assess the status of their migrations, as well as to detect and resolve any difficulties that may develop. Migration Hub allows users to keep track of the progress of their migrations to any AWS Region that users' migration tools support. When using an integrated tool, the migration status will appear in Migration Hub regardless of which Regions users move into.

    • It provides incremental app refactoring

AWS Migration Hub is a service provided by Amazon Web Services. Refactor Spaces is the beginning point for migrating applications to microservices in stages. For incremental refactoring, Refactor Spaces avoids the undifferentiated work of establishing and running AWS infrastructure. Refactor Spaces can help users to lessen the risk of migrating apps to microservices or adding new functionality to existing systems written in microservices. The Refactor Spaces environment connects AWS accounts, allowing old and new services to communicate while keeping individual account independence. Refactor Spaces includes an application proxy that mimics the strangler-fig design, allowing you to slowly add additional services to an external HTTPS URL while remaining transparent. This makes modifications to the underlying architecture transparent to your app's users. and tools.

    • It provides migrations in multi-regions

The AWS Migration Hub allows users to keep track of the progress of their migrations to any AWS region that users' migration tools support. When using an integrated tool, the migration status will appear in Migration Hub regardless of which areas they move into.
