TCO Analysis

  • MgC allows you to compare the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of your source environment with what it would be for running on Huawei Cloud by automatically analyzing the past bills for source resources and comparing them to the prices of mapped target resources.
  • MgC enables you to learn about the TCO of your on-premises or cloud environment and what it would be if you migrate to Huawei Cloud. You can quickly obtain the list of Huawei Cloud resources and the cost model, helping you make decisions on cloud migration.

Application Dependency Mapping

  • By creating an application dependency analysis task, you can automatically collect global resources in your source environment.
  • You can learn the call chains of microservices by collecting information about the collection registration center, configuration center, and CMDB. More collection items means a more complete view of dependencies between applications and data. This can help you group source resources more efficiently.
  • MgC provides architecture diagrams and dependency maps to visualize the associations between applications and the organizational structures of applications, helping you analyze resources and design solutions.
  • MgC allows you to import and export resource details in batches.

Resource Assessment and Recommendations

MgC collects information about source servers, databases, and object storage resources and analyzes the associations between applications, so that it can recommend the best-fit Huawei Cloud resources. Recommendations are based on the specifications, performance data, and scenarios of the source resources, and your other requirements on, for example, cost, availability, performance, security, and compliance. You can export the assessment results as needed.

Migration Workflow Templates

MgC provides migration workflow templates summarized from best practices for batch server migration, cross-AZ ECS migration, and storage migration. You can use these templates to create migration workflows for different migration scenarios. You can customize a workflow by inserting customized stages and steps to it. You can run all tasks in just one click and monitor the migration progress in real time.
