This article describes scenarios that you can use to migrate Amazon Web Services (AWS) compute services to Azure. These cloud services provide the processing power, memory, and storage necessary to run computational tasks. The migration process involves transitioning these services from AWS to Azure, with a focus on maintaining feature parity.
The scenarios cover common compute types, such as virtual machines (VMs), web applications, and serverless services. For example, a typical migration scenario might involve moving a serverless application from AWS Lambda to Azure Functions.
Component comparison
To begin the process, compare the AWS compute services that a workload uses with their closest Azure counterparts. This evaluation helps identify the most suitable Azure services for your migration needs. For more information, see Compare compute services on Azure and AWS.
Note
This comparison isn't an exact representation of the functionality that these services provide in your workload.
Migration scenarios
Use the following scenarios as examples for your migration process:
| Scenario | Key services | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Migrate AWS event-driven workloads to Azure | Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) to Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) | This scenario involves migrating an EKS event-driven workload that includes Kubernetes Event-Driven Autoscaling (KEDA) and Karpenter to AKS. |
| Migrate EKS web application workloads to AKS | Amazon EKS to AKS | This scenario involves migrating an EKS web application to AKS. |
| Migrate Amazon EC2 instances to Azure | Amazon EC2 instances to Azure VMs | This scenario involves migrating AWS EC2 instances to Azure VMs. |
| Migrate AWS Lambda to Azure Functions | AWS Lambda to Azure Functions | This scenario involves migrating serverless applications from AWS Lambda to Azure Functions. |
