Migrate to an Open Source Platform with Proven Methodology

Legacy UNIX systems lag in performance and are expensive to maintain. But transferring your entire infrastructure to an open source platform such as Linux presents its own challenges. An implementation of this scope can pull IT staff away from mission critical operations. Further, unexpected roadblocks can slow the process. 

Reduce risk and speed deployment with Unix to Linux Migration Implementation services from Dell.

How it Works

Our team performs a validated migration process, which can include both a physical and virtual move of hardware and applications. Beginning with a proof of concept (POC) based in your test environment, we analyze target code based on migration-impacted metadata and generate metrics for sizing the migration.

We then use a test automation-framework tool to conduct testing of different business rules and scenarios.

In the final stage of implementation, we perform user-acceptance and performance testing, along with remediation, until all requirements are met.
