“They’re all VM-based workloads. How hard could it be to migrate them? Mostly a lift-and-shift, right?” True! But “simple” migrations can also be harder than they look, and slower, and riskier – unless you follow a dependable playbook and apply the right tools.
Doing migrations correctly is critical to gaining benefit from new private cloud environments: reduced Ops overhead, better hardware utilization, power savings – and it’s ultimately what lets you reduce your VMware footprint on a reasonable timetable (and reduce your TCO in regards to Kubernetes and Cloud Native spend).
In this webinar, Michael Tillman and Heiko Kraemer, both Principal Cloud Architects at Mirantis, tackle the challenge of how you plan, automate, and execute moving a diverse, VM-based workload population off VMware and onto an OpenStack private cloud.
They will be covering:
⏺ Cost-effective alternatives to VMware in the context of the Broadcom acquisition
⏺ Any hidden “gotchas” in migrating away from VMware
⏺ Entity mapping, provisioning and/or other technical challenges common in migrations
⏺ Complete and current VMware migration playbook
⏺ Recommendations so you can build your own toolkit to execute migrations faster, more securely, and much more efficiently with reduced risk in the future
Join Heiko and Michael for a complete breakdown of migrating your workloads from VMware to OpenStack, utilizing reliable and flexible open source technologies wherever possible along the way.
