In migration projects, "transfer" is only half the journey. The other half is Discovery (deciding what to migrate), TCO analysis (understanding cost), building Landing Zones (ensuring safe company-wide transfer), and dashboards (tracking transfer status). AWS provides specialized tools and programs for each stage.
Today, beyond the 7Rs, MGN, and DMS we've covered, we'll explore the tools that complete the migration ecosystem: App2Container (containerization), Porting Assistant (code porting), Migration Hub (unified tracking), MAP (funding program), Refactor Spaces (gradual monolith decomposition). Precisely distinguishing between similar-looking tools is key to the Pro exam.
