The risk and downtime of server migration have locked many IT teams into platforms that are no longer ideal. Migrations are often delayed or avoided—whether it’s moving data to the cloud or back on premises, or upgrading the hardware of the database software. This results in lost opportunities, unnecessary costs, and a lack of agility that today’s IT teams can no longer afford.
Carbonite DoubleTake® MoveTM quickly and easily migrates physical, virtual, and cloud workloads over any distance with minimal risk and near-zero downtime. Using efficient real-time, byte-level replication technology, DoubleTake Move creates a replica of the data, application, database, or entire server being migrated and keeps it in sync with the production system. The migrated data can be validated without disrupting business operations, and downtime is limited to the seconds or minutes required for cutover to the new server.
No downtime, no surprises
To avoid downtime and data loss, DoubleTake Move replicates the source system to the primary target, using AES-256 encryption to pass the data over the wire. Once replicated, the systems are kept in sync. Test cutovers can be done at any time without impacting production systems. In fact, end users can continue to use the source system until the cutover. The actual migration takes just seconds or minutes.
Move physical, virtual, or cloud servers to cloud targets
DoubleTake Move enables you to make new infrastructure choices without impacting system availability. With the power to migrate workloads to
and from the cloud, between physical and virtual systems, and around the world, you’re free from platform lock-in. And, DoubleTake Move supports Windows file and folder migrations, as well as full Windows and Linux system migrations.
Streamlined SQL server migration
The DoubleTake Move solution can also streamline upgrades to Microsoft SQL Server. By maintaining a synchronous source and target, DoubleTake Move enables you to cut over between two instances of your database with almost no downtime for end users. Finally, a straightforward solution to upgrading that critical part of your IT infrastructure.
Automated, repeatable process
The unified management console handles all your migrations, regardless
of location or platform, from the initial replication through testing and the ultimate cutover. You can avoid a complex and error-prone migration while:
Ensuring data, files, and even systems settings are replicated reliably
Managing bandwidth with intelligent compression and throttling options
Satisfying security requirements that all data sent over the wire is encrypted
Integrating with any external management tools with our comprehensive SDK
