Dynamic SWAP Automatically directs I/O to new location after data replication completes, allowing for data migration without disruption. Logical group management Improves manageability and integrity when moving databases. Throttling full speed copy Helps maximize copy speed during slow time periods within the customer environment (daytime) and throttle back the migration during peak load times (evening backup window). Uses two I/O buffers with overlapping read/write operations for the fastest possible migration. Resilient architecture Current state of migration is maintained at all times, regardless of graceful or non-graceful shutdown to help enable continued or recoverable migration Fall back Provides the ability to test on migrated data sets to determine the state of data prior to cut over. After testing, customers can switch to the migrated data sets or choose not to cut over until issues have been corrected—without effecting users.
