Migration of a Workload running in a Corporate Data Center to AWS using the Amazon EC2 and RDS service.

In another project based in a real-world scenario, I was a Cloud Specialist responsible for migrating a workload running in a Corporate Data Center to AWS. I was able to migrate users from the on-premises to the cloud environment by creating resources from the AWS console. One of those was creating the VPC with different subnets (Private and Public) then connect the internet gateway to the VPC.

So the goal was to create resources from AWS in an automated way and implementing the resources so that users from the on-premises would be migrated to the cloud environment. So I followed some migration steps: Planning (sizing, prerequisites, resource naming), Execution (resource provisioning, best practices), Go-live (validation test — Dry-run, final migration — Cutover) and Post Go-live (ensure the operation of the application and user access).
