Solution · Migration

Plan migrations soundly, implement them securely, and protect ongoing operations.

With migRaven.MAX, you migrate data and permissions to new systems or to the cloud in a controlled manner. You identify risks and dependencies in advance, clean up legacy data, and preserve important links.

Correct access rights and repair internal links

The problem

What slows down migrations and endangers operations

Data not migration-ready.

Paths that are too long, unsuitable file types, and exceeded capacity limits can prevent transfer. Structures that have grown over time must first be prepared for the target environment.

Legacy data drives up costs.

Unused data increases migration effort and continues to occupy storage afterward. Without clean-up, costs remain unnecessarily high even after the move.

Missing decisions slow things down.

Without involved data owners, it remains unclear which data should be migrated, archived, or deleted. Unclear responsibilities and uncoordinated tasks complicate planning.

Unclear rights pose risks.

Access rights that have grown over time must be reviewed and adjusted for the target environment. Otherwise, unnecessary permissions and existing security issues can be carried over.

Changed paths jeopardize workflows.

New storage locations can break internal links and file access for applications. Documents no longer work as expected; operational disruptions and costly rework are likely.
The solution with migRaven.MAX

How your migration becomes manageable

Migration with migRaven.MAX: planning, decisions, and execution run on a single platform – from the initial analysis to the repaired links in the target environment.

  • All stakeholders on the same page

    Admins, project management, and business units coordinate tasks and deadlines centrally – from planning to acceptance.

  • Decide where the expertise lies

    Max AI explains findings and provides recommendations. Data owners decide for themselves what is migrated, archived, or deleted.

  • Only what is relevant moves

    Only business-relevant data is transferred; legacy data can be deleted or archived.

  • Links remain usable

    The system detects internal links and repairs them after the transfer.

The process

Five steps to a controlled migration

Data owners and central project management support the entire process.

01

Analyze file servers

Analyze data, AD and directory structures, and permissions. Identify outdated data, technical migration obstacles, and dependencies – as a solid foundation for planning.

02

Sustainable clean-up

Decide together with the data owners which data is still needed. Specifically separate, archive, or delete legacy data – thereby reducing migration scope and ongoing storage costs.

03

Design target structure

Plan a clear target structure for data and permissions together with the business departments. Flat directories, clear responsibilities, and appropriate access rights lay the foundation for future collaboration.

04

Migrate data in a controlled manner

Transfer the approved data to the new target structure on a scheduled basis and in packages. Coordinate tasks and deadlines centrally and implement the intended permissions in the target.

05

Repair internal links

After the transfer, adjust internal links to the changed storage locations. This keeps linked documents usable even after migration.

Max AI supports project planning and the decisions of the business departments.

One fundamental difference

From lift & shift to a controlled migration

Both approaches get the data to the target – only one does not bring the legacy burden along.

1:1 transfer without clean-up

  • Legacy burdens are carried over

  • Unnecessary migration and storage costs

  • Existing permission issues remain

  • Broken links and manual rework are likely

Migration with migRaven.MAX

  • Migrate only the data that is needed

  • Reduce data volume and follow-up costs

  • Review and clean up permissions

  • Automatically repair internal links

Always in view

Data · Permissions · Dependencies

Whoever keeps an eye on these three levels during migration makes better decisions – and carries the results into ongoing operations.

  • Better decisions
  • Lower costs
  • Reduced risk
  • Sustainable compliance
  • Satisfied business departments
