## What strategies do I use to reduce downtime during migration?

-
1. Use Agent-Based Replication for Continuous Sync </br>
404
-
**Tool**: Azure Migrate: Server Migration </br>
405
-
**How it helps**: It continuously replicates on-premises VMs to Azure. </br>
406
-
**Benefit**: This helps you cut over with minimal data loss (RPO of a few seconds) and reduces downtime (RTO of a few minutes).
407
-
1. Perform Test Migrations </br>
408
-
**How it helps**: Azure Migrate lets you run test migrations without affecting the production VM. </br>
409
-
**Benefit**: You check boot success, network connectivity, and application functionality in Azure before the final cutover.
410
-
1. Use Replication Groups for Dependency-Aware Migration </br>
411
-
**How it helps**: You group VMs based on application or service dependencies and migrate them together.</br>
412
-
**Benefit**: This lowers the risk of broken dependencies during migration and helps keep services running smoothly.
413
-
1. Schedule Cutovers During Maintenance Windows </br>
414
-
**How it helps**: You plan the final cutover (switching users to the Azure-hosted app) during a known low-traffic period.</br>
415
-
**Benefit**: This minimizes the user impact and gives time for rollback if needed.
416
-
1. Do a Phased Migration </br>
417
-
**How it helps**: You migrate and modernize workloads in stages instead of all at once. </br>
418
-
**Benefit**: Smaller changes minimize the risk and help keep services available throughout the process.
