What are the migration options for VMware workloads to AWS?
Your agency has four primary options for migrating VMware workloads to AWS: 1) Rehost Workloads to EC2, which involves a 'lift and shift' approach with some infrastructure changes; 2) Replatform Workloads to Containers, moving to AWS Elastic Container Service (ECS) or Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) for improved application portability and scalability; 3) Replatform Workloads to Managed Services, which requires adjustments to transition applications to managed services; and 4) Refactor Workloads to Native Services, where applications are fully rewritten or modified for cloud-native components.
How can AWS benefit my agency?
AWS provides a robust cloud infrastructure with operational resiliency and a wide variety of use cases. It has a history of continuous improvement and focuses on customer cost reductions, ensuring your agency receives a favorable price-to-performance ratio. Additionally, partnering with an AWS provider like TD SYNNEX Public Sector offers assessment services, training for your teams, and ongoing managed services to support your AWS environment.
How can we start the migration process?
To begin the migration process, your agency should contact TD SYNNEX Public Sector for an assessment of your migration needs. They can guide you through the transition from VMware to AWS, ensuring a smooth and efficient migration tailored to your agency's requirements.
