DATA MIGRATION

Challenges
Migrating existing data from a legacy array to a new storage array, from one data center to another, or from direct-attached storage to networked storage is a labor intensive and time consuming chore for IT managers, and is often logistically problematic, incurs lots of downtime, and tends to be dangerous!

DATACORP Solution

Fast, easy, and painless: that’s how you’ll describe our blended team approach (Hitachi Data Systems and DATACORP) to addressing your data migration challenges. Migration of your active and static data can be accomplished in minutes rather than days, with the highest degree of safety and simplicity.

IPStor's unique Storage Service Enabler Option enables you to attach your storage devices to the IPStor Server and immediately start taking advantage of IPStor’s enterprise class storage services (Mirroring, Replication, TimeMark, Active-Active Failover, Zero-Impact Backup Enabler, I/O Accelerator, etc.) for capacity management, high availability, data recovery, and performance enhancement ? without bulk copying or virtualization.

• Preserves existing storage investments: When upgrading from a legacy array to a new storage array, or relocating your data center, you can re-purpose your existing devices (e.g., as a low-cost replica disk for disaster recovery). And, when migrating from direct-attached storage to networked storage, there's no need to purchase new storage devices ? you can simply plug your existing disks into the IPStor Server.
  
  
• Zero-downtime migration maximizes ROI by providing continuous access to data for 24x7 productivity.
  
  

• Rapid deployment ensures that your mission critical applications (e.g. Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Notes, Oracle, web servers, streaming video servers, blade servers, etc.) can quickly take advantage of IPStor's high availability, capacity optimization, accelerated backup, and near-line data recovery benefits.
  
  
• Ease of migration facilitates smooth transitions that are quick, practical, and safe.
