Mainframe Tape to Cloud Migration

Seamlessly transition your legacy tape data to the cloud.

Automated Data Discovery

The solution includes scripting and automation tools to identify and catalog data sets across various tape management systems, ensuring no data is left behind during migration.

Batch Migration Capabilities

The system allows for migrating data in batches, optimizing network bandwidth and minimizing downtime during the transition.

Cloud Compatibility

Supports migration to various cloud platforms (e.g., Amazon Google, Microsoft Azure, IBM Cloud), offering flexibility based on organizational needs and existing cloud agreements.

On-Prem Compatibility

Supports migration to low-cost on-prem devices.

Validation and Monitoring

The solution includes validation of data integrity throughout the migration process, ensuring that all files are successfully transferred and accessible.

Cost Efficiency

By moving data to lower-cost cloud storage solutions, organizations can significantly reduce ongoing maintenance costs associated with physical tape libraries and virtual tape products.

zIIP Eligible

The migration process can offload tasks to IBM’s zIIP specialty engines, reducing CPU consumption and operational costs while optimizing mainframe performance.

Ready to migrate your legacy tape systems to the cloud?

Reduced Operational Costs

Transitioning to the cloud minimizes expenses related to maintaining outdated tape technologies, such as hardware maintenance and infrastructure costs.

Enhanced Data Accessibility

Once migrated, data can be easily accessed and processed by cloud applications, eliminating the need for complex ETL processes or custom code.

Scalability

Organizations can scale their data storage solutions easily in the cloud, accommodating growing data needs without the constraints of physical tape libraries.

Increased Fault Tolerance

Cloud environments provide inherent redundancy and data replication options, enhancing the resilience of archived data.

Simplified Management

The migration process is designed to be straightforward and user-friendly, allowing organizations to focus on their core operations rather than managing legacy tape systems.
