Greetings all, we are on E1 9.0, tools 9.1.4.7.
Our company is embarking on a project to move all processing to the Cloud (Amazon AWS). JDE is just one of 50+ applications that we used so we are just one small piece of the puzzle. But in relation to that move, I would appreciate input for the following.
We have six JDE related servers, all running MS 2008 R2. Three of these are used to run weblogic (2 prod, 1 non-prod), one production enterprise server, one development enterprise server and one deployment server.
We have two options to move our processing from the current mode of operation to the cloud. The project team for this migration is preferring that all applications do a reinstall on the new cloud servers, although another option would be to a lift and shift (as they are calling it), basically creating a server image then restoring that image on the cloud server.
My CNC skills are meager, so I'm not sure what is involved in either options, especially the reinstall.
What would the level of effort be for doing a reinstall of these six servers vs. the level of effort for doing to virtual image restore.
We will looking to bring in a senior cnc consultant to assist in some of the planning, as well as serving as a resource as we migrate to the cloud, but initially we are looking for some ideas as to which method (reinstall or lift/shift) would be more cost effective. The project team prefers a reinstall but are open to the other on a case by case basis.
Any input would be appreciated.
