Cloud Migrations, System Migrations, and Database Upgrades
The Problem
Are you worried that your migration or upgrade will take up too much time at the expense of your other priorities?
- Cloud Migrations, System Migrations, and Database Upgrades take time and lots of planning—time away from your regular business activity.
- To succeed, you must address and factor in many issues and concerns for migrations or upgrades.
The Issues
Below are a few of the items that might apply to your Cloud Migration, System Migration, or Database Upgrade:
- Who are the stakeholders of the project? Who should participate in the planning team?
- How are you going to handle all of that old data? Does it all need to migrate into the new system?
- How are the users going to react to the new application? What will the impact be on their desktop? Will they need a training class to use it?
- Do all other database server applications work with the new SQL version?
- Will the production cut-over occur via a light switch or phased approach? What is the roll-back or back-out plan in the event of a failure?
The Solution
Throughout my 30+ years of work in the Information Technology industry, I've helped clients through dozens, if not hundreds, of Cloud Migrations, System Migrations, and Database Upgrades. Representative projects have included:
- Managing the intricacies of an Enterprise Content/Document Management system upgrade involving hundreds of users across multiple offices
- Consolidation of many databases on numerous servers onto a single enterprise-class database server
- Migration of servers and databases to the cloud
- Migration of the content and data from one vendor's application to another
- Migration of the content and structure from traditional file servers to SharePoint, including the implementation of Retention Policies
- Migration of the content and structure from traditional file servers or shared desktops to Microsoft Teams
Working with SeneTech has allowed my clients to focus on their business with minimal impact on their daily operations while simultaneously proceeding with an upgrade or migration.
