Recommended Instance

The recommended AWS instance type.

Reduced Cores

The number of hardware/CPU threads recommended for the machine and this value is the same as “Recommended (Instance)” in CPU threads.

Analytics will try to reduce no. of CPU threads to reduce a license cost for MS SQL Server software product. So this “Reduced CPU threads” will occur for a machine where MS SQL server is installed. Moreover, in a pricing plan, one of license optimization options should be selected. They are “Optimize Cost and Reduce Number of Cores”, “Optimize Number of Threads”, “Disable Hyperthreading”.

Hyperthreading

With license optimization options, Analytics can recommend optimal instance type with or without hyperthreading. Enabled hyperthreading means two hardware/CPU threads in each core are used. Disabled hyperthreading means only one hardware thread in each core is used.

Tenancy

Shared or Dedicated tenancy.

Recommended Weekly ON Time (%)

Application Inventory Settings

 By clicking Application Inventory Settings, it will allow us to select the applications that you want to migrate

Build Application-Based Move Groups

Move groups can be built in multiple ways, by default Move groups are built on application categories, the Cloudamize Platform allows for the creation of new groups or assets by creating Application-Based Move Groups.

To make adjustments, click on the More Tools button, and select Build-Application Based Move Groups

Build Machine-Based Move Groups

 In addition to Application-Based Move Groups, the Cloudamize Platform allows for the creation of Machine-Based Move Groups

To make adjustments, click on the More Tools button, and select Build-Machine Based Move Groups.

A new window will open with two sections, the bottom section lists all processes found during the assessment and the top section, is where we will be adding rules for these machines.

Advanced Filtering

Advanced Filtering allows you to create move groups based on nearly any metric collected by the Cloudamize platform.

Migrate Your environment

This Option allows us to know how to migrate a set of machines to respective IAAS using Application Migration Service (MGN). After an installation key has been provided, the MGN agent can be downloaded and installed from the Cloudamize application. Machines which are candidates for migration to AWS will then be available in the MGN dashboard.
Alternatively the Cloudamize migration report can be downloaded and used to create a MGN migration blueprint.

Upload File

An option to be used to upload a .CSV file

CSV Builder

 The Cloudamize CSV Builder allows you to create custom CSV outputs to provide you with the data which is most important to you.

You can choose the categories to display as columns in the downloadable CSV output and you can reorder the columns to fit your needs.

Select columns based on machine-centric data such as observed and recommended number of CPU threads, allocated memory, operating system, and many more and the templates can also be created based on application-centric data such as the application category, description, vendor, process, etc.

CSV Exporter

This option lets you create a custom template by using an option of drop-down list to select a plan and to apply to the data in the selected templates

SQL Server and License Usage

Using the Migration Planner, Cloudamize now provides a more in-depth look at the SQL Servers found in the assessed infrastructure. The information provided within the SQL Server and License Usage machine allows you to gain further insight into the on-premise licensing data and view a comparison of host-based versus VM-based SQL licensing. This feature also provides an overview of necessary on-cloud SQL licensing.
