Instructor track
Facilitation notes, timing, checkpoints, common failures, and reset guidance for the Elasticsearch migration lab.
The full workshop is 4–6 hours. For an instructor-led day, provision the source stack before participants arrive or reserve a 30-minute startup buffer. Keep the learner pages on screen for commands; use these notes for pacing and intervention.
| Module | Budget | Hard checkpoint |
|---|---|---|
| 00 Setup | 15 min | Artifact and tool checks pass |
| 01 Source environment | 30 min | Both workloads produce growing Elasticsearch counts |
| 02 Analyze and design | 60–90 min | Three learner artifacts are complete before answers open |
| 03 Execute migration | 2–3 hours | Parallel parity passes before any Elasticsearch service stops |
| 04 Knowledge validation | 60–90 min | Learner explains deviations, not only a score |
Never ask learners to paste Cloud or AWS credentials into chat, slides, shared terminals,
or version-controlled files. Filled-in .env and Terraform variable files stay local.
