Why AnySource Migrator?

Do you need to migrate from one repository to another? Do you want to modify metadata or create new document renditions (convert a TIFF to a PDF, for example) during the migration? Would you prefer a solution that is more automated and reliable? With SYSCOM AnySource Migrator, you can quickly and easily define, execute and confirm a repository migration. Use Cases include migration, document/data export or import, document renditions  and data modification.

Overview

SYSCOM AnySource Migrator (ASM) provides the migration architect with a tool to perform taxonomy analysis, define migration processes, test migrations, execute the migrations and monitor the results of the migration. ASM provides over 25 pre-defined connectors to many repositories including IBM FileNet P8/Content Manager, FileNet Content Services and  FileNet Image Services, Microsoft Sharepoint, OLEDB, EMC, and CMIS.

The migration architect uses the ASM migration tool to perform taxonomy analysis, configure migration rules, test migrations, execute the migrations and monitor the results of the migration. He or she configures jobs, processes, operations, and actions using ASM to meet the designs of the desired migration.

Once configured, migrations can be scheduled to execute as needed. During migration execution, ASM keeps track of every document migrated and provides a status that is used to validate the migration results.
