Overview

Transitioning Backup Environment

Transition is a process of migrating between Backup Environments. This can be between same backup vendor or different backup vendor.
Migrating the backup domains, ensure quicker and easier access towards latest software/hardware and(or) Technlogies (Cloud/Virtualization/Clustering etc.,)

Currently, there are less software which can handle the transition smoother and simpler.

Use cases

Operational reasons:

• changing software vendors
• changing platform (operating system, high availability solutions, cloud adoption or virtualization)
• Simplified management (consolidation of multiple environments or splitting a large environment)

Business reasons:

• Merges and acquisitions
• Spin-off
• Regulations
