Case Study: Voyager Therapeutics Migrates 35 TB to Amazon S3 with Cloudsfer

How to Migrate successfully 35 TB of Data With No Downtime

Voyager Therapeutics, a biotechnology company developing gene therapies, faced the challenge of migrating 35 TB of critical laboratory data from Egnyte to Amazon S3. Their existing workflow was not suited for their scientific roadmap, and they needed the data centrally located in AWS to power their analytical pipeline while maintaining strict access controls and file metadata. They turned to the vendor Cloudsfer and its cloud migration service to accomplish this complex transfer.

Using Cloudsfer, Voyager Therapeutics successfully migrated 35 TB comprising millions of files, including 160,018 folders and over 4.3 million items, within a three-week timeframe. The solution from Cloudsfer featured a crucial delta migration to capture file changes and included custom development to preserve essential metadata like creation dates and user information. This migration was completed with no downtime, providing Voyager with their data in a secure, central AWS location ready for analysis.
