Migration and Upgrade of File Data Platforms

This solution brief outlines the migration and upgrade process for file data platforms using Qumulo and Atempo. It describes the challenges organizations face when transitioning from traditional scale-out NAS systems to modern, scalable file data platforms that enhance data access and workflows in both on-premises and cloud environments. The document details Qumulo's file data platform, which is designed for high performance and scalability, enabling organizations to manage petabyte-level data efficiently. Atempo's Miria software is introduced as a solution for secure and reliable migration of large file systems across different storage environments. The brief explains the workflow for migrating data to Qumulo, including the roles of Data Movers and the importance of load balancing during the migration process. It emphasizes the capabilities of Atempo's FastScan feature, which optimizes the migration process by minimizing the load on source storage and ensuring data integrity throughout the migration.
