Discover how Cirrus Migrate enables organizations across industries to do more with their digital solutions.
The flexibility of Cirrus Migrate allowed a Fortune 500 global manufacturing company operating 78 plants in 23 countries to upgrade and consolidate their IT infrastructure. This manufacturer rapidly transformed from three HPE arrays to one Dell EMC Unity array while simultaneously moving from ESX 5.1 to 6.7 directly – something the firm could not do using vMotion.
One of North America’s largest food and beverage companies was embarking on a storage refresh project at two data centers serving a combination of over 600 ESX, Linux, and Windows hosts in a Brocade environment. The two sites had accumulated over 2PB of data and a storage refresh required a seamless migration with no downtime and continued client access to high-performance databases.
One of the top five disaster recovery solutions providers in APAC required a DR solution it could offer to its customers, which include some of the largest telecom companies, universities, energy companies, financial institutions, as well as a stock exchange. The solution would form the backbone of the firm’s DR practice and would need to provide the best RPO and RTO so that the company could be adaptive and responsive to its major clients.
When an enterprise clothing retailer with a significant e-commerce presence approached one of Cirrus Data Solutions’ channel partners with an emergency storage issue, the partner knew it needed a quick solution to get the customer off their current storage and onto new arrays. Using CMC and CMO, the partner and customer met all their difficult objectives and maintained production operations throughout the migration.
A luxury hospitality firm operating more than two dozen hotels across North America was upgrading its aging Dell EMC (now Dell Technologies) XtremIO legacy storage to a new Dell EMC PowerFlex sofware-defined infrastructure. Cirrus Migrate On-Premises‘ built-in PowerFlex plugin enabled this hospitality chain to quickly move to its new hyperconverged model by automatically creating destination volumes on the new storage and then automatically pairing them with the source destination.
TFG (The Foschini Group), the leading specialty retail group in South Africa with 34 brands and more than 3000 retail stores, had 110TB of data contained on a hybrid cloud storage solution that was at end-of-life (EOL). TFG, through their partnership with Data Sciences Corporation, selected Cirrus Data Solutions to help make the migration to Pure Storage successful without extending the current infrastructure beyond its EOL date. Find out how they simplified their migration using Cirrus Migrate Cloud (CMC).
This insurance software provider had only six months to migrate 2.5PB of block data across 320 hosts in two separate data centers. And downtime was not an option. Cirrus Migrate On-Premises‘ pMotion enabled this insurance software provider to better serve its more than 21,000 agency partners without impacting key applications and databases.
One of the largest electric motor manufacturers needed to sunset its aging Dell XtremeIO and Unity storage arrays and adopt modern Dell PowerMax NVMe All-Flash arrays inside a new data center. With only nine months to plan and migrate a complex variety of hosts, applications, and VMs from many vendors from the legacy data centers to the new data center across the state, time was of the essence. The migration project promised to improve performance and efficiency, enabling more innovation and superior service for the manufacturer’s customers.
