Apache Cassandra Migration

Apache Cassandra Migrations

At DSP we are Apache Cassandra Cloud Migration experts; whether you're migrating from on-premise, or from another Public Cloud. We have been delivering data management migrations, consulting and support for over 25 years and have seen all the pitfalls that a badly planned migration can throw at you.

We are equally at home spending 2 days migrating document storage to a cloud archive or spending 18 months migrating over 64,000 servers and associated applications as a greenfield implementation on cloud.

We are especially proud of our database platform expertise, recognised by Oracle and Microsoft as well as the majority of Open Source developers which means we are one of few partners who are trusted by vendors and customers alike to deliver best practise cloud migrations. Our managed service pedigree means that on go-live of a successful migration, we can also manage that cloud environment for you.

DSP's Migration Methodology

Discover

The first step when migrating our customers to Cassandra is to conduct an in-depth discovery call. This call will consist of understanding exactly what kind of cloud model will suit your business the best. Whether that's a full migration to Cassandra or a partial hybrid, Cloud@Customer approach or even as a component in a multi-cloud strategy.

This discovery call will involve a Cassandra Data Architect, as well as your dedicated Account Director so you can understand both the technical and commercial sides of any potential cloud model.

You should leave this stage knowing which approach is right for you as well as other commercial and technical impacts; such as how to design for redundancy and availability.

Migrate

With the cloud model now agreed, the next stage of the Cassandra Cloud Migration process is the actual migration.

The Data Architect who joined your discovery call will stay with you throughout your journey to cloud, and will lead a team of certified Cassandra Engineers to carry out the migration. The scope of the migration will be unique to you. However, what is consistent is that every migration includes a transition into support to ensure your cloud environment is ready to go when handed over.

Manage

After a successful migration, the majority of our customers then continue with a DSP Managed Service. This entails proactive monitoring of your Cassandra environment on a 24*7*365 basis, with built-in health checks. Allow DSP to manage your cloud environment, so you can focus on managing your business.

Continue Your Journey to Apache Cassandra

Whether you are in need of temporary storage to support an office move, a hybrid strategy to support a mix of sensitive applications, assistance in developing a multi-cloud strategy or an urgent move to support a hardware failure, DSP has the skills and relevant experience to move you to Cassandra (or OCI and Azure).
