Solutions > Switch Migration

Switch migrations are increasingly common yet complex endeavors for companies with networked storage environments.
SANscreen® from Onaro® provides an automated migration management solution that reduces the cost of personnel needed to ensure a successful migration, eliminates outage risks, and accelerates the completion timeline – all without impacting application availability and performance.
Onaro’s migration management solution utilizes end-to-end service representation and simulation technologies to:
- Plan how many switch ports to buy - Traffic distribution data helps determine which switches to upgrade, how many ports are utilized, and growth rate.
- Identify impacted applications - SANscreen's service path awareness automatically detects which applications will be impacted during the migration.
- Eliminate existing latent quality issues in the SAN before the migration - Any latent problem can cause outages or service slowdowns during the migration.
- Validate the migration’s successful completion for all applications.
Benefits
When measured against traditional spreadsheets and outsourced consultants, SANscreen has proven to yield:
- An incremental 70 percent reduction in outage risk
- A 50 percent reduction in the storage portion of the project timeline
