Aging OS & physical iron
Legacy on-prem servers with AIX or older Linux — can your cloud Backup vendor handle the extraction? Ours does, with no toll-gate fees.
Forced migration timetables
Data center exit deadlines or hardware lifecycle terminations pressure you to move fast. You need a partner who understands both legacy and cloud.
Capex-to-Opex conversion urgency
Heavy Capex in TSM Storage appliances — converting to cloud Opex frees budget, but only if the migration is predictable and covered.
IBM Storage Protect → AWS Backup migration — your questions answered
How do I migrate IBM Storage Protect to AWS Backup without risking data loss?+
Move your TSM Backup data and metadata to AWS Backup while keeping IBM vendor support active. No forced cutover. Your legacy platform remains supported under your existing vendor contract — you migrate on your timeline. If the contract lapses, our independent third-party support covers most operational issues on the legacy platform (not vendor patches).
Can I migrate from Tivoli Storage Manager to AWS Backup if my servers run AIX or older Linux?+
Yes. Our senior engineers handle on-prem physical servers, legacy OS like AIX, and older Linux distros. We bridge data center realities with AWS cloud engineering — no toll-gate fees for data extraction from legacy media systems.
What is the typical timeline and budget for converting TSM Backup to AWS?+
Typical timeline is 3–6 months with 2–4 consultants. Budget ranges from $60,000 to $350,000 depending on data volume, complexity, and integration depth. Fixed scope means no cost overruns.
What happens to my existing IBM Storage Protect support during migration?+
Your IBM Storage Protect vendor contract remains active, so you avoid any gap. If it lapses, our third-party support covers most operational issues (not patches). You can move at your pace.
