Migrating Existing Web Servers to the Public Cloud (AWS)
In this test scenario, one of the web servers was migrated to the public cloud using Cisco Intercloud Fabric. The
persistent information within the application, including users and store-related details, was verified to be intact after
the migration (Figure 24).

Initially, the enterprise data center deployed two web servers and a database server. One of the web servers was
migrated to AWS using Cisco Intercloud Fabric, and after the migration the web server was fully functioning, with
connectivity to the database server on the enterprise side.
Because the web server that was migrated to the cloud already existed, after the migration is complete, users can
use the server immediately without the need to make any additional configuration changes.
Figure 25 shows how to migrate a virtual machine. Choose Intercloud > Compute. Select a virtual machine from
the list, and click the Migrate VM to Cloud button.
