Experienced IT Professional with hands-on business experience in managing cloud-based technology and effectively handling configuration & deployment of infrastructure & services.

AWS Server Migration Service automates the migration of your on-premises VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V/SCVMM, and Azure virtual machines to the AWS Cloud. AWS SMS incrementally replicates your server VMs as cloud-hosted Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) ready for deployment on Amazon EC2. Working with AMIs, you can easily test and update your cloud-based images before deploying them in production.

By using AWS SMS to manage your server migrations, you can:

– Simplify the cloud migration process.

– Orchestrate multi-server migrations.

– Test server migrations incrementally.

– Support the most widely used operating systems.

– Minimize downtime.

AWS Server Migration Service is designed to simplify the end-to-end server migration process. AWS SMS currently supports the migration of on-premises virtual machines (VMs) as an agentless service using a virtual appliance. AWS SMS is an ideal solution to use when you are planning a scaled migration from VMware environments to AWS where the downtime, agentless tools, incremental replication, and testing the application before the cutover are critical considerations.
