Migrating an On-Prem Learning Management System to AWS with Infrastructure as Code
In this session, we will share our experience migrating our Learning Management System from on-premises to AWS. We will walk through designing a scalable and secure cloud infrastructure using CloudFormation, automating deployments with AWS CodePipeline, orchestrating containers with ECS Fargate, and managing databases with Amazon RDS. The migration process involved moving code via GitHub, files with AWS DataSync, and the database through DBMS export/import. We will also discuss how adopting ECS Fargate enabled environment consistency between local development and production, leveraging Docker for improved efficiency and deployment reliability. Additionally, we will highlight the role of AWS ECR in enhancing security and operational efficiency throughout the migration.
