Notes

  1. 1.

    Lift and shift (also known as rehosting) is the process of migrating the exact copy of a workload from on-premises to the cloud with as few changes as possible.

  2. 2.

    A sink port is a special listening port used by HCX-NE appliances to connect to the original network and extended segment. The HCX-NE appliances use it for learning MAC addresses and forwarding packets.

  3. 3.

    VMware Aria Operations for Networks, formerly VMware vRealize Network Insight, is a network monitoring tool that provides visibility and analytics to minimize risk during application migration to VMware Cloud on AWS and helps optimize network performance.

  4. 4.

    HCX Application Path Resiliency technology creates multiple tunnels between the source and destination uplink IP pair for improved performance and resiliency.

  5. 5.

    AWS Transit Gateway is a managed, regional, and scalable service that enables organizations to interconnect a large number of Amazon VPCs and on-premises networks without relying on numerous point-to-point connections or the Transit VPC.

  6. 6.

    VPC endpoints enable you to privately access specific AWS services from your own Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), without using public IP addresses and without requiring the traffic data to travel across the Internet.
