Webinar VMware VMs easily migrate to Proxmox with Thomas Glanzmann


Rising licensing costs, changing vendor strategies, and the desire for more independence are currently prompting many companies to consider alternatives to VMware™. One particularly attractive option is Proxmox™ VE as a powerful, open, and cost-effective virtualization platform.

In this webseminar, we will demonstrate live how existing VMware™ VMs can be efficiently and systematically migrated to Proxmox™ using the NetApp™ Shift Toolkit. You will gain practical insights into typical migration scenarios, technical requirements, procedures, as well as the opportunities and limitations of the tool. Learn how to strategically prepare for the switch to Proxmox™, minimize risks, and successfully implement initial migrations.
