6 data center migration best practices

Data center migration can be a complex, costly, and time-consuming process. It typically happens due to transformation or consolidation. Best practices for a successful migration include taking a detailed inventory of assets, creating a migration plan, devising a process for hardware, software, and application migration, assembling teams, developing a data backup and recovery plan, and preparing KPIs for post-migration testing. This approach to migration helps maintain uptime, security, and compliance while optimizing systems and potentially saving costs in the long run.
