As you may recall, we installed an agent on some virtual machines, and then that agent replicated the contents of those virtual machines up to the application migration service. And then from there, we performed a test migration and then a cutover migration. Now, when it comes to an agentless migration, things work more or less in the same way. You replicate the virtual machines up to the application migration service, and then you perform a test migration, and ultimately, you perform a cutover migration. Now, the techniques used to perform a test migration and a cutover migration are exactly the same as they are for an agent-based migration. So I'm not going to repeat those steps, you can always refer to the videos earlier in this course. What is different, however, is what you see when you access the application migration service.
