Migration from File Server to Cloud.
Struggling to find files on a file server? Does this sound familiar?
Have you ever had trouble finding a specific file on a file server — like searching a bookshop and not knowing whether to look under “non-fiction” or “history”?
This problem is common in organisations. Files are stored in folders that make sense to one person but not to others. This leads to different versions of the same document and uncertainty about which version is the most current.
Approach to file server migration
The migration process begins with a solid plan of approach. Ask yourself why you want to carry out the migration and what you want to achieve. This is an excellent opportunity to clean up what is often a long-standing history of documents in the organisation.
A clear objective helps in making well-considered decisions and evaluating results afterwards. Determining the libraries, metadata and permissions structure are important considerations here.
Implementation and adoption
During the implementation phase, you need to determine which data, applications and files will move to the cloud. This is the moment to introduce new working methods and store files more efficiently. Divide the migration process into manageable steps and involve employees at every phase.
Test the end result first with a sounding board group before rolling out the changes organisation-wide.
