Many customers are looking for alternatives to VMware and considering a switch to Microsoft Azure Stack HCI. Azure Stack HCI is built on the same foundation as Microsoft Azure which is used by 95% of Fortune 500 companies.
But once you’ve decided to switch to Azure Stack HCI, how will you migration your VMs and data?
Azure Migrate (in preview) is a migration service from Microsoft that enables you to move VMs from an existing Hyper-V environment to Azure Stack HCI version 23H2. Azure Migrate acts as the control plane, but the data transfer stays entirely on-premises. Support for VMware vCenter source environments is coming soon.
- Agent-less replication
- Configure your workload during migration
- No workload impact during replication
- Data stays on-premises
- Minimal cutover time
Shriram Natarajan, Principal Program Manager for Azure Edge Infrastructure, Microsoft, introduces us to Azure Migrate and provide a walkthrough in this live webinar.
