Case Study: Locaweb achieves rapid, zero-downtime P2V migration with Vision Solutions' Double-Take Move

Locaweb - Customer Case Study

Locaweb, a Sao Paulo–based leader in web hosting serving over 162,000 customers and hosting hundreds of thousands of domains, needed to migrate 120 Windows physical servers to a VMware virtual environment to reduce costs, consolidate infrastructure and improve efficiency — all within a two-month window and without disrupting 24x7 production services.

Locaweb used Vision Solutions’ Double-Take Move, deploying real-time byte-level replication and full-server failover from the physical sources to VMware targets. Data replicated in about 18 hours, end users accessed applications until the moment of switch, and the full P2V migration finished in under six weeks, eliminating planned downtime and simplifying provisioning while proving cost-effective and reliable.
