For example, you might be replacing servers or storage devices or consolidating or decommissioning data center. Data migration is also an essential step in the overall process of migrating on-premises IT infrastructure to a cloud computing environment.

Whether youโ€™re moving to a public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud, or multicloud environment, youโ€™ll need to find a secure, cost-effective, and efficient method of migrating your data to its new storage location.
