I understand that you want to migrate standalone database, AAG database using azure migrate. Here are the general steps to migrate standalone databases and Always On Availability Group databases using Azure Migrate:

1. Assess your environment: Use Azure Migrate to assess your on-premises environment and determine which databases are suitable for migration to Azure.
2. Create an Azure Migrate project: Create an Azure Migrate project in the Azure portal and configure the project settings.

Prepare the source environment: Prepare the source environment by installing the Azure Migrate appliance and configuring the replication settings.

Configure the target environment: Configure the target environment by creating an Azure VM and configuring the storage and networking settings.

Replicate the databases: Replicate the standalone databases and Always On Availability Group databases to the target environment using Azure Migrate.

Test the migration: Test the migration by validating the data in the target environment and ensuring that the applications are functioning correctly.

Cut over to the target environment: Cut over to the target environment by stopping the applications in the source environment and starting them in the target environment.
