Download the brief to understand your choices and contact Dynamic Systems, Inc. for expert support on identifying the best path forward.
What are the migration options for VMware workloads to AWS?
AWS offers four main migration options for agencies transitioning from VMware: 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; 3) Replatform Workloads to Managed Services, which requires changes to move 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 is recognized as a leader in cloud infrastructure, offering operational resiliency and a wide range of solutions tailored to various agency needs. It has a proven track record of continuous improvement and cost reductions, ensuring agencies receive a favorable price-to-performance ratio. Additionally, partnering with an AWS provider like TD SYNNEX Public Sector can enhance your migration experience with assessment services, team training, and ongoing managed services.
