IT teams and enterprises that need to migrate large-scale applications to AWS quickly with minimal downtime and without modifying existing systems
About AWS Application Migration Service
AWS Application Migration Service (MGN) is a highly automated lift-and-shift solution designed to simplify, accelerate, and reduce the cost of migrating applications from on-premises environments, private clouds, or other public clouds into AWS. It works by continuously replicating source servers at the block level into an AWS account, preserving the exact configuration of applications, operating systems, and data. When organizations are ready to migrate, the service automatically converts these replicated servers into native AWS resources such as Amazon EC2 instances, enabling fast cutover with minimal downtime and no need to modify applications. It is built to handle large-scale migrations with high compatibility, allowing businesses to move many physical, virtual, or cloud-based servers without performance disruption or lengthy migration windows. It reduces manual effort by automating key processes such as replication, conversion, and launch, minimizing errors.
