About This Architecture

VMware vSphere workloads migrate to AWS using Migration Hub for server discovery and Database Migration Service for PostgreSQL replication. Three m5.large EC2 instances in private subnets receive traffic through an Application Load Balancer in a public subnet, connecting to RDS PostgreSQL db.m5.large with S3 backup integration. This lift-and-shift architecture demonstrates AWS best practices for on-premises VMware migration with high availability, automated backups via S3, and operational visibility through CloudWatch and Systems Manager. Fork this diagram on Diagrams.so to customize instance types, add Auto Scaling groups, or model your own migration topology. Download as .drawio, .svg, or .png for migration planning documentation and stakeholder presentations.
