How the setup or migration service works
We’ll review your existing applications and services, looking at the needs of your users, and the business outcome you’re looking to achieve. We’ll make sure we understand your security, cost, and performance constraints. From there we’ll work with your application developers to create a plan to migrate your applications to AWS.
