• Data Migration

    • Reduce the disruption and cost of data migration with Dell EMC

    • As massive data growth requires organizations to constantly acquire new storage infrastructure, IT teams are struggling with the inevitable consequences: data migration. Traditional migrations have been time-consuming, tedious, complex and disruptive, sometimes even to the point of preventing organizations from deploying new storage arrays. 

      Dell EMC provides a data migration service – Intelligent Data Mobility – that solves these challenges and enables organizations to achieve accelerated time-to-value on new equipment, along with flexibility and simplicity to move data and workloads seamlessly on an ongoing basis. 

    • The challenges of data migration

    • Dell EMC Intelligent Data Mobility services enable organizations to easily overcome the traditional obstacles to seamless and successful data migration. These include:

      • Disruption. Traditional data migration techniques lead to unacceptable disruption in users’ ability to access data during migration process.
      • Time-intensive. Traditional migration requires careful planning and execution of data migration blueprints, coordinating efforts across multiple teams and slowing the pace at which companies can migrate to new storage arrays.
      • Cost. The expense of traditional data migration can be so high that organizations may delay the acquisition of new storage arrays that are required to manage growth in data volumes.

    • FAQs: What is data migration?

    • What is data migration?

      Data migration is the process of moving data from one location, application, architecture, file storage system (including network storage, object storage, and tiered storage systems) or to another. 

      What are the challenges of data migration?

      Data migration inevitably involves a certain amount of risk – data may be lost or corrupted in the process, or it may be exposed in such a way that it could be stolen or accessed by a malicious individual. Data migration can be costly, as the process of moving data can consume a great deal of staff time. And because data may need to go off-line at some point in order to move it, data migration can involve disruption to user productivity and business operations.

      • Easier disaster recovery, as data is stored in a remote location and can be accessed via an Internet connection.
      • Greater accessibility, since data can be accessed from anywhere.
