Cloud7 IT Services specializes in data migration, offering comprehensive solutions to transition your data to cloud environments. Their services encompass planning, execution, and post-migration support, ensuring a seamless and secure data transfer.
A key aspect of their approach is the "7 Rs" cloud migration strategy, which includes:
Rehost (Lift and Shift): Moving applications to the cloud without significant changes.
Replatform (Lift, Tinker, and Shift): Making minimal adjustments to optimize for the cloud.
Repurchase: Switching to a cloud-based version of the software.
Refactor (Re-architect): Redesigning applications to fully leverage cloud capabilities.
Retire: Decommissioning outdated applications.
Retain: Keeping certain applications on-premises.
Relocate: Moving applications to a different cloud environment without altering them.
These strategies help tailor the migration process to your organization's specific needs.
Additionally, Cloud7 IT Services utilizes tools like Cloud Endure, which provides continuous block-level replication and supports various target infrastructures, including AWS, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, and VMware.
By leveraging these strategies and tools, Cloud7 IT Services ensures a smooth and efficient data migration process, minimizing downtime and maintaining data integrity.
