Azure Stack HCI (Hyper-Converged Infrastructure) is a solution offered by Microsoft that brings together Windows Server technologies with Azure services to enable hybrid cloud scenarios. We have noticed an increase in Azure Stack HCI migration projects within our enterprise base, particularly with customers looking to build private HCI and hybrid cloud solutions for reasons such as data sovereignty. The migration of multiple systems to Azure Stack HCI has until now proven to be a difficult and time-consuming task for systems administrators within the IT community due to the lack of automation tools.
Cristie Software has solved the challenges of migration through new capabilities within the Cristie Virtual Appliance (VA) that offer seamless integration and automated provisioning when migrating systems to Azure Stack HCI. The Cristie VA can now easily provision multiple systems within Azure Stack HCI from a wide range of source platforms including VMware, Nutanix, Amazon EC2, Oracle Cloud, Hyper-V or directly from physical machines. Systems can be automatically provisioned based on source platform specifications or adjusted within the VA saving many hours of manual configuration.
If you are currently working on migration projects to or from Microsoft Azure Stack HCI, or plan to do so in the future, then please contact the Cristie Software team to learn more about our migration automation capabilities. Our system migration solution CloneManager® in conjunction with the Cristie VA can greatly simplify Azure Stack HCI migration saving many hours of manual intervention.
