What is IBM Cloud Mass Data Migration?
IBM Cloud™ Mass Data Migration uses storage devices with 120 TB of usable capacity to accelerate moving data to the cloud and overcome common transfer challenges like high costs, long transfer times and security concerns — all in a single service.
Features and benefits
Move data fast
Using a single IBM Cloud Mass Data Migration device, you can migrate up to 120 TB of data (at RAID-6) in just days, as opposed to weeks or months using traditional data-transfer methods.
Flexible and scalable
Whether you need to migrate a few terabytes or many petabytes of data, you have the flexibility to request one or multiple devices to accommodate your workload.
Affordable
Moving large data sets can be expensive and time-consuming. For a limited time, enjoy IBM Cloud Mass Data Migration free of charge.
Simple process
IBM sends you a preconfigured device for you to simply connect, ingest data and then ship back to IBM for offload into IBM Cloud Object Storage. Once offloaded, enjoy immediate access to your data in the cloud while IBM securely wipes the device.
End-to-end protection
Device design helps optimize security from the inside out. Trusted Platform Module (TPM), inline AES 256-bit encryption and RAID 6 configuration coupled with ruggedized waterproof and shockproof cases promote tamper-resistant data protection and integrity during device handling and transport.
Secure erasure
IBM uses NIST data wipe standards to ensure complete erasure of all customer data from IBM Cloud Mass Data Migration devices.
