Data Migration Accelerator

Infineta's Data Migration Accelerator (DMA) is a pay-as-you-go Big Traffic WAN optimization offering built around Infineta's Data Mobility Switch. The DMA offering can enable you to significantly cut data migration times and planned WAN spending, allowing you to achieve your cost reduction goals and increase business agility without incurring any capital expenditures.

Data Migration Challenge

Migrating large volumes of data to a remote location is often a critical first step for enterprise IT in implementing data protection, application delivery, and cost reduction strategies. Some of the scenarios where data migration planning must occur at the outset are:

  • Consolidation of smaller data centers for cost reduction
  • Addition of a new data center for business expansion
  • Transition from in-premise hosting to the Cloud
  • Roll-outs of new applications across data centers

For the underlying business goal to be achieved quickly and efficiently, data migration projects must be completed in a short time to minimize application downtime, avoid operational expenditure (OpEx) overruns and reduce IT staffing costs. However, with enterprise datasets doubling every two years, IT managers are forced to keep provisioning more WAN capacity (i.e. more money) to ensure that data migration projects complete on schedule.

Accelerate Migration Projects

The pay-as-you-go acceleration model offered by Infineta’s DMA is ideally suited to address the data migration challenge faced by your enterprise. Built around Infineta’s Data Mobility Switch (DMS), the DMA offering can directly help you achieve the following:

  • Reduce OpEx on project staff and equipment by 4-5x
  • Curtail your expenditures on additional WAN capacity by leveraging existing WAN infrastructure
  • Improve the enterprise’s BC/DR standing by bringing new data centers online faster
  • Reduce data center management and operations cost significantly by decommissioning old data centers faster
  • Increase business agility by deploying applications faster
  • Avoid large capital expenditure (CapEx) and meet your cost reduction commitments

DMA Provisioning Options

You can deploy Infineta DMS systems for a short duration so that the DMS deployment aligns with, and helps speed up, your migration project without requiring any CapEx investment. The offering includes Infineta’s top-tier professional service and support. Deployment timeframes can be extended if your acceleration needs last longer than expected, or if the economics of the DMA offering make more sense as a long term acceleration option for your enterprise’s budgeting policies.
