Azure mandate + legacy costs

Enterprise Azure cloud push forces a move, but OpenShift licensing overhead and on-prem hardware refresh cycles add pressure.

Complex configurations scare teams

Migrating OpenShift Routes, Security Contexts, and Spectrum Scale host-path mappings feels risky without expert help.

Cloud Pak dependency trap

IBM Cloud Pak dependencies lock you into Fusion — or so you think. We break that lock.

IBM Storage Fusion HCI → Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service migration — your questions answered

Can we keep IBM Storage Fusion HCI running during migration?+

Yes. The legacy platform stays under vendor support as long as your contract is active. If it lapses, our third-party support covers most operational issues while you finish the move.

How long does an IBM Storage Fusion to AKS migration take?+

A typical migration takes 4-6 months with 3-4 senior engineers. Fixed-scope means no timeline or budget creep.

What about complex configurations like OpenShift Routes or Spectrum Scale paths?+

Yes. We handle OpenShift Routes, Security Contexts, Spectrum Scale Storage mappings, and any Cloud Pak dependencies. Your workloads convert cleanly to native AKS.

What is the typical budget for this migration?+

Pricing ranges from $100,000 to $480,000 depending on environment complexity. Fixed scope means you know the cost upfront.
