HPE to Utilize the Cirrus Data Migration Server

Cirrus Data Solutions, Inc. (CDS), in SAN data migration, data acceleration, and data protection technology, announced an agreement with Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP (HPE) to utilize its Data Migration Server (DMS) capabilities as part of its Data Migration Services.

Under the terms of this agreement, CDS’ technologies will enable lightweight ‘end-to-end’ SAN data migration services for existing corporate data deployed on legacy and third-party storage systems, applications or OSs configuration to HPE enterprise storage arrays including all-flash and XP Storage systems.

Available to data managers worldwide since 2011, DMS technologies are deployed in hundreds of data migration projects.

Corporations are under increasing pressure to move their data from one storage technology to another and CDS reduces the risk, along with the time requirements and complexity of the data migration. The DMS is a single migration technology that delivers ‘any OS, any application, any storage data movement between platforms from companies.

Cirrus’ patented Transparent Datapath Intercept (TDI) and Adaptive Automatic QoS technology empowers organizations like HPE (specifically its technology services consulting business unit and its professionals) to provide these end-to-end migration services to data centers, co-located and remote, and cloud storage platforms and environments.

“Data is the most critical decision making asset in today’s economy“, said Wayne Lam, CEO, CDS. “CDS is instrumental in helping businesses manage the massive increase in workload demands, time constraints, and risks associated with storage migrations-delivering flexibility, adaptability, and security. By integrating with global technology leader, HPE, and its premier services organization, CDS’ technologies arm data migration professionals with a ‘Gold Standard’ in data migration technology-without compromise or impact to mission-critical and ‘always available’ applications and resources.“

“The ability to future proof your environment with a sound data management strategy should be a top priority for businesses worldwide,” said Patrick Porto, WW storage portfolio owner, data management and protection, HPE. “With the Cirrus DMS data migration solution, Technology Services Storage Consulting offers customers an end-to-end data migration plan that mitigates risk and reduces IT transformation costs.“

DMS has been available through its partner network since 2011. HPE’s technology services business unit is incorporating DMS technology as part of its data migration services portfolio and will be available worldwide supporting HPE storage solutions.
