Case Study: US Signal cuts cloud migration windows in half with NetIQ PlateSpin Migrate

US Signal cuts cloud migration windows in half with PlateSpin® Migrate

US Signal, a Midwest networking and managed-services provider with 14,000+ miles of fiber and eight data centers, expanded into cloud infrastructure-as-a-service and needed a faster way to move customer servers and applications into its cloud. Facing narrow migration windows, a backup-and-restore process that required agents and manual spreadsheets, and an upcoming project of 350+ servers, the team struggled to meet customer downtime requirements and needed a more automated solution.

After evaluating and implementing Micro Focus PlateSpin Migrate, US Signal automated discovery, live transfer and Server Sync, and integrated templated testing into its process with Micro Focus support. The automation cut migration preparation from weeks to days, reduced migration windows by 50%, minimized customer downtime, and delivered a smoother, more reliable migration service.
