Cloud accelerates business
transformation
• Innovate with the latest
technology from any source
• Access more types of data,
analytics & AI, anywhere
• Improve return on existing
investments
Yet less than 20% of enterprise workloads have moved to date. Why?

5.
Can’t reliably send, share, and sync large files and data sets over global internet
connections
Unable to move big data at high-speed with existing network bandwidth
Subject to slower times and more congestion for global file transfers across public
internet, corporate MPLS, wireless and mobile networks
Limited options to access and store data to the cloud from on-premises
infrastructures
Need greater security & more control in moving files & data sets to employees,
researchers, vendors, & external data centers, without impacting other traffic

Challenges of migrating large amounts of data

6.
Challenges with other solutions
Network Transfer Alternative
• Can provide poor performance
• Sometimes will not scale
• Difficult to ensure security
• Over-consumption of bandwidth
Physical Disk Shipment
• 3-step data transfer bottlenecked by a
truck
• Often data is out of sync before
migration completes
• Lost devices leave data exposed
• Hardware failure causes a full restart

Aspera can move
100 TB of data
across the US in
24 hrs compared
to 5 days with
TCP

A global media company’s migration
Moving their media archive to the cloud
• 6.3 PB archive comprised of 22M files
o 21 million files under 100MB aggregated to 80 TB
o 1 million files over 100MB aggregated to 6.2 PB
• 1 PB migrated ~every 8 days from on-prem storage in LA to AWS US-EAST-1
• Post-migration they continued to sync 10 - 12 TB per day

16.
Why Aspera for data migration to the cloud?
Fast, secure, and reliable transfer to and from the AWS Cloud
• Reduce your migration window with high-speed transfers
• Lower migration costs with direct-to-cloud transfers
• Eliminate the risks of physical disk shipments
