generate migration strategy and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instance recommendations for business case and migration planning
track the progress of application migrations to AWS
modernize applications already running on AWS
AWS Config
provides a detailed view of the configuration of AWS resources in your AWS account, including how the resources are related to one another and how they were configured in the past so that you can see how the configurations and relationships change over time
With AWS Config, you can do the following
Evaluate your AWS resource configurations for desired settings.
Get a snapshot of the current configurations of the supported resources that are associated with your AWS account.
Retrieve configurations of one or more resources that exist in your account.
Retrieve historical configurations of one or more resources.
Receive a notification whenever a resource is created, modified, or deleted.
View relationships between resources. For example, you might want to find all resources that use a particular security group.
AWS Backup
fully-managed service that makes it easy to centralize and automate data protection across AWS services, in the cloud, and on premises
AWS Backup Primary Features
configure backup policies and monitor activity for your AWS resources in one place
automate and consolidate backup tasks that were previously performed service-by-service
AWS Budgets
Using AWS Budgets, you can set a budget that alerts you when you exceed (or are forecasted to exceed) your budgeted cost or usage amount. You can also set alerts based on your RI or Savings Plans Utilization and Coverage using AWS Budgets
Amazon QuickSight
business analytics service that makes it easy for all employees within an organization to build visualizations, perform ad-hoc analysis, and quickly get business insights from their data, anytime, on any device
Amazon EMR
a managed cluster platform that simplifies running big data frameworks, such as Apache Hadoop and Apache Spark, on AWS to process and analyze vast amounts of data
AWS Step Functions
fully managed service that makes it easy to coordinate the components of distributed applications and microservices using visual workflows
is a low-code solution to build data and machine learning pipelines using AWS services
Amazon Simple Workflow Service
a web service that makes it easy to coordinate work across distributed application components
must program workers and deciders to orchestrate workflow
Amazon Cloud Directory
cloud-native directory - highly scalable directory store for your application’s hierarchical data
Server Name Indication (SNI)
Cloud Front feature to host multiple TLS secured applications, each with its own TLS certificate, behind a single load balancer
to use SNI, all you need to do is bind multiple certificates to the same secure listener on your load balancer
ALB will automatically choose the optimal TLS certificate for each client
AWS OpsHub
AWS OpsHub is a graphical user interface you can use to manage your AWS Snowball devices, enabling you to rapidly deploy edge computing workloads and simplify data migration to the cloud.
AWS OpsWorks
configuration management service that provides managed instances of Chef and Puppet
AWS CodeDeploy
Fully managed deployment service that automates software deployments to a variety of compute services such as Amazon EC2, AWS Fargate, AWS Lambda, and your on-premises servers
AWS Snowcone
AWS Snowcone is the smallest member of the AWS Snow Family of edge computing and data transfer devices. Snowcone is portable, rugged, and secure. You can use Snowcone to collect, process, and move data to AWS, either offline by shipping the device or online with AWS DataSync
8 TB of storage
What are the options for AWS Snowball
AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized
AWS Snowball Edge Compute Optimized
AWS Snowball Edge Storage Optimized
devices provide 40 vCPUs of compute capacity coupled with 80 terabytes of usable block or Amazon S3-compatible object storage
Data transfer, Edge storage
supports storage clustering - rack mounted and clustered together to build larger, temporary installations with Snowball Edge Storage Optimized
Snowball Edge Compute Optimized
devices provide 52 vCPUs, 42 terabytes of usable block or object storage, and an optional GPU for use cases such as advanced machine learning and full-motion video analysis in disconnected environments
Edge computing, Data transfer
supports storage clustering - rack mounted and clustered together to build larger, temporary installations with Snowball Edge Storage Optimized
Backup and restore
(RPO in hours, RTO in 24 hours or less): Back up your data and applications using point-in-time backups into the DR Region. Restore this data when necessary to recover from a disaster
Pilot light
(RPO in minutes, RTO in hours): Replicate your data from one region to another and provision a copy of your core workload infrastructure. Resources required to support data replication and backup such as databases and object storage are always on. Other elements such as application servers are loaded with application code and configurations, but are switched off and are only used during testing or when Disaster Recovery failover is invoked
Warm standby
(RPO in seconds, RTO in minutes): Maintain a scaled-down but fully functional version of your workload always running in the DR Region. Business-critical systems are fully duplicated and are always on, but with a scaled down fleet. When the time comes for recovery, the system is scaled up quickly to handle the production load. The more scaled-up the Warm Standby is, the lower RTO and control plane reliance will be.
Multi-region (multi-site)
(RPO near zero, RTO potentially zero): Your workload is deployed to, and actively serving traffic from, multiple AWS Regions. This strategy requires you to synchronize data across Regions. Possible conflicts caused by writes to the same record in two different regional replicas must be avoided or handled. Data replication is useful for data synchronization and will protect you against some types of disaster, but it will not protect you against data corruption or destruction unless your solution also includes options for point-in-time recovery. Use services like Amazon Route 53 or AWS Global Accelerator to route your user traffic to where your workload is healthy.
Amazon EventBridge
a service that provides real-time access to changes in data in AWS services, your own applications, and software as a service (SaaS) applications without writing code
automatically deliver events in near-real-time
can be used to develop event-driven applications and decouple system architecture
recommended when you want to build an application that reacts to events from SaaS applications and/or AWS services
