Introduction to AWS MAP
AWS MAP has three phases in the migration process to help enterprise customers build strategies to migrate any number of applications.
- Phase 1: Assess
The AWS Migration Acceleration Program’s first phase assesses the customer’s baseline workload capabilities using various tools such as the Migration Portfolio Assessment tool, Migration Evaluator, rapid discovery process with TCO analysis, and many more. The ‘assess’ phase builds a detailed roadmap of the customer’s cloud journey and a solid migration business case.
- Phase 2: Mobilize
The ‘mobilize’ phase involved preparation for the migration to AWS. The focus is on the discovery, planning the migration tasks, and building the capabilities for the organization and the AWS environment. Migration in the ‘mobilize’ phase is an iterative process and involves developing new skills, tools, and capabilities. With this approach, businesses can benefit by defining and automating the security aspects, establishing a cloud operating model, improve IT skills and competency for organizational transformation and migration.
- Phase 3: Migrate & Modernize
The Migrate phase consists of the building blocks, tools, resources, processes, and methodologies defined during the readiness and planning phase. After a well-documented migration plan is devised, the execution of the migration plan is critical to the business and achieving the business case upon which the migration was planned. AWS Partner will perform the assessment, find the right funding program, and ensure that our customers avail the best possible customer experience during their migration to AWS.

Why should companies opt for MAP?
AWS MAP provides a comprehensive set of tools and resources for customers to migrate their workloads to AWS. There are built-in processes to carry out the tasks of workload migration in a structured manner. AWS provides end-to-end support to the migration partner to help them migrate the enterprise customers.
Customers can optimize their workloads during migration rather than lift and shift to the cloud. Thus, migration of workloads can also include modernization by analyzing the customer’s workloads. With automation, the migration processes faster with less human error, thus leading to a successful and reliable migration.
Ultimately, AWS MAP helps customers to save time and money for their migration needs to AWS. The migration tools are designed to fast-track the process with reduced business disruption.
Funding programs vary depending on each customer. However, the actual AWS funding kicks in the Migrate phase, and AWS grants up to 25% of the projected first-year Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) to fire up the migration.
