In this blog post, we delve into leveraging Microsoft SQL Server backup metadata, commonly referred to as backup headers, for migrating databases from on-premises environments to Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2). This approach is particularly beneficial in scenarios where access to the source database is limited, or only backup files are available. By utilizing these backup headers, users can streamline the migration process and ensure a smoother transition to AWS infrastructure.
Furthermore, we will discuss how to automate the creation of self-managed licenses across multiple accounts using tagging. Proper management of licenses for software on Amazon EC2 is essential for compliance and auditing. AWS offers a valuable tool called AWS License Manager to assist in tracking and managing licenses effectively. For additional insights, check out this another blog post on similar topics here.
Moreover, we will cover how to generate and troubleshoot TLS certificates for a highly available Remote Desktop Gateway (RD Gateway) farm. The secure management of Amazon EC2 instances running Microsoft Windows Server is paramount for operational integrity. This post aims to equip you with the knowledge to navigate the complexities of certificate management.
In addition, we will explore the use of Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) with AWS Fargate to automate Azure DevOps hosted agents. This process enables seamless application deployment on AWS using Microsoft Azure Pipelines, enhancing operational efficiency.
