Data Migration Process

01

Assess

Perform a complete Application Assessment that includes dependency mapping and a comprehensive physical inventory.

02

Design

Design a practical straight forward solution that supports complexity without creating it.

03

Migrate

Implement the design and migrate the date, ensuring that all components work together smoothly and effectively with minimal business disruption.

04

Go-Live

The Go-Live phase includes UAT and performance testing to ensure success and no loss of data across the migration.

05

Decommission

Decommission is critical for phased out components and storage modules at the source server, and our process concludes with the destruction of the now unused data sources.

THE COMPLEX DATA CENTER MIGRATION SPECIALISTS

Moving or consolidating a data center, or migrating data, can be a traumatic undertaking for a company. There’s lots of risk involved for the inexperienced or unwary. We take great pride in removing the fear from the process, and making data migrations routine and trouble free.

Our proprietary No-Downtime methodology assures a safe, smooth and seamless transition with no business disruptions. And we partner with industry-leading service providers and vendors, enabling a single point-of-contact for clients through all phases of the migration process.

NO DOWNTIME DATA MIGRATIONS METHODOLOGY

What is this NO DOWNTIME methodology you ask? It is a proven approach that is a well-defined process for repeatable, predictable, successful data migrations that are encapsulated in four phases:

  • Data Migration Assessment
  • Design
  • Implementation
  • Data Migration Testing

THE RISKS OF DATA CENTER MIGRATIONS ARE REAL

Many companies have experienced significant setbacks from poorly executed data migrations. The business downtime alone can be quite costly – particularly when it exceeds projected migration windows for downtime.

The list of potential data center migration pitfalls to worry about :

  • Problems from failing to properly validate and test the data migration process
  • Entrusting the migration to internal employees that lack expertise and experience
  • Relying upon out-of-the-box/ open source migration tools that aren’t adequate for critical and complex migrations
  • Budget overruns resulting from an unrealistic projection or incomplete migration assessment and plan

NO COMPANY IS BETTER POSITIONED TO ELIMINATE THE RISKS

WE TAKE THE FEAR OUT OF DATA MIGRATION

Because of our focus and specialized expertise, we’re able to take the fear out of migration events for our clients.
We’ve developed and perfected methodologies for migrations prompted by any imaginable scenario, including:

  • Migrations between data centers and/or migrations within the same data center
  • Migrations from physical or virtual servers into public or private clouds
  • Providing protection for data while hardware is relocated or replaced
  • Migrations performed during storage array refresh and consolidations
  • Virtualization – physical / virtual server conversions (P2V, V2V, V2P)
  • Operating system migrations or hypervisor implementations
  • Migrations performed while consolidating facilities, adding DR sites, or diversifying footprints

NO MATTER YOUR UNIQUE SITUATION OR NEEDS, WE’LL MAKE THE MIGRATION PROCESS SEAMLESS AND TRANSPARENT.

THE CRITICAL ELEMENT OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Data Center migrations are far more complex than the physical movement of items. Employing a High Level Project Management hierarchy that supports all facets of relocation is critical.

Additionally, developing and sticking to a well thought out migration management process helps in foreseeing what could be CRITICAL CHALLENGES that disrupt or worse, derail your data migration project. By planning thoroughly ahead of time we can minimize, if not eliminate, a number of these critical challenges:

  • Missed dependencies within applications
  • Lack of a Senior Technical Architect and Technical Transition Manager
  • Lack of communication between business units and technical towers
  • Poor bandwidth planning (bandwidth for migration decreases as migration progresses)
  • Lack of Mitigation Plan & Ad-hoc Requests
  • Budget
  • Resources
  • Bandwith
  • Agility Plan
