What is AWS Migration Hub?
AWS Migration Hub provides a single location to track the progress of application migrations across multiple AWS and partner solutions. It allows you to discover your existing servers, plan your migration, and track the status of each application.
Key Concepts
1. Centralized Tracking
- Aggregates status from tools like Application Migration Service (MGN), Database Migration Service (DMS), and partner tools.
2. Discovery
- Integrates with AWS Application Discovery Service to collect data about on-premises servers (e.g., hostnames, IP, resource usage) to help plan the migration.
3. Orchestrator
- Helps automate and orchestrate the migration workflow.
