We're joined by two AWS MAP experts to delve into the AWS Migration Acceleration Program (MAP). We go through its three phases: Assess, Mobilize, and Migrate & Modernize; and the program's framework, funding opportunities, and common misconceptions. More specifically, we discuss the importance of accurate capacity planning, TCO calculations, and tagging for successful migrations.

We also cover the critical role of project management, stakeholder involvement, and adhering to AWS Well-Architected Framework principles. The conversation touches on challenges in modernizing legacy applications, the significance of proper landing zone setup, and strategies for post-migration optimization. Finally, we conclude with best practices for cloud migrations, emphasizing the importance of involving skilled cloud architects and planning for the unpredictable nature of migration projects.
