MS2365 Designing an Application Migration Strategy to Microsoft® .NET

Module 1: Introduction to Designing an Application Migration Strategy

This module introduces the overall migration design strategy. The lab introduces the application scenario that is used throughout the course.

Lessons

	Introduction to Migrating Applications to Microsoft .NET
	Overview of Designing a Migration Strategy

Lab: Introduction to Lucerne Publishing

After completing this module, students will be able to:

	Describe the advantages of migrating an application to Microsoft .NET.
	Describe the process for designing an application migration strategy.

Module 2: Analyzing Requirements to Select a Migration Approach

This module describes how to analyze the business and technical requirements that impact the design of a migration strategy. The module also presents the guidelines for selecting a migration approach.

Lessons

	Identifying Business Objectives and Technical Constraints
	Selecting a Migration Approach

Lab: Analyzing Requirements and Selecting the Migration Approach

After completing this module, students will be able to:

	Identify the business objectives and technical constraints that impact a migration strategy.
	Determine whether to migrate and/or interoperate an application, whether to completely rebuild an application, or whether to leave an application as-is.

Module 3: Determining a High-Level Migration Strategy

This module describes different high-level migration strategies, how to select a strategy based on the analyzed requirements, and how to analyze the risks associated with the chosen strategy.

Lessons

	Overview of Migration Strategies
	Selecting a Migration Strategy
	Assessing the Risks of a Migration

Lab: Determining a High-Level Migration Strategy

After completing this module, students will be able to:

	Differentiate between the characteristics of a horizontal migration and a vertical migration.
	Determine whether to perform a horizontal or vertical migration, which includes identifying the details for a high-level migration strategy.
	Assess the risks of the selected migration strategy.

Module 4: Designing a Migration Plan

This module describes how to design the migration plan, taking into account the components to be migrated, data access, and the Web environment.

Lessons

	Analyzing the Source Code of Components to be Migrated
	Determining When to Migrate Data Access from ADO to ADO.NET
	Determining When to Migrate Web Pages from ASP to ASP.NET
	Determining When to Migrate Controls to .NET

Lab: Designing an Interoperability Strategy

After completing this module, students will be able to:

	Analyze existing components that will be migrated to .NET.
	Determine when to migrate data access from ADO to ADO.NET.
	Determine when to migrate Web pages from ASP to ASP.NET.
	Determine when to migrate controls to .NET.

Module 5: Designing a Strategy to Support Interoperability

This module describes how to design for interoperability.

Lessons

	Designing for Interoperability
	Using Wrappers for Interoperability
	Using Web Services for Interoperability
	Using Other Communication Mechanisms for Interoperability
	Interoperating Between Managed and Unmanaged code
	Interoperating with Unmanaged APIs and COM+ Components

Lab: Designing an Interoperability Strategy

After completing this module, students will be able to:

	Identify the components with which you will need to interoperate and the issues related to enabling this interoperation.
	Determine when to use wrappers for interoperability.
	Determine when to use Web services for interoperability.
	Determine when to use other communication mechanisms for interoperability.
	Determine how to interoperate with unmanaged APIs and COM+ components.

Module 6: Identifying Migration Deployment Issues and Planning the Next Phase of a Migration

This module discusses deployment issues related to migrated applications. The module also discusses the process for migrating any remaining application components to .NET.

Lessons

	Identifying Common Deployment Issues
	Completing a Full Migration to .NET

Lab A: Identifying Deployment Issues

Lab B: Planning the Next Phase to complete the Migration to .NET

After completing this module, students will be able to:

	Identify common deployment issues for both migrated applications and applications that will interoperate with older technologies.
	Identify the issues related to implementing a complete migration to Microsoft .NET.
