5. System Migration?
“System migration is an awesome project that no one wants to
manage or get involved in.”
System migration on Wikipedia. 29 November 2013

“Anybody who wants to volunteer or
raise you hand?”

6. System Migration!
"System migration involves moving a set of instructions
or programs, e.g., PLC (programmable logic controller) programs,
from one platform to another, minimizing reengineering.“

7. Why migration solution is needed?
• To reduce time and cost versus manual migration

• To verify if the existing system is able to run on cloud
• To migrate hundreds or thousands of servers into cloud

8. My case about migrating system
• About 100 VMs with 30
customers on VMware ESXi
• Windows OS, Linux
OS(Debian, RedHat)
• Mainly composed as 3 Tier
