Choose an agentless Hyper-V migration approach. Create an Azure Migrate project, enable Microsoft Entra permissions, prepare the on-premises environment, and deploy the Azure Migrate appliance. Your on-premises workloads are now ready for the actual migration.
Enable VMs for replication by registering the Hyper-V host(s) to the Azure Migrate project. Configure Hyper-V VMs for replication, monitor, and run a test failover. After migration complete, migrated VMs should have security controls added.
You will explore different migration tools and migrate SQL Server databases to Azure SQL Database.
