Overview

Cloud Migration Service provides custom migration solutions based on your workloads to be migrated. Then, Huawei Cloud will conduct the migration for you.

This document can be used as a reference for customer contracts and specifies the application scope, responsibilities of both contract parties, and project completion standards. If a conflict arises between this document and customer contracts, the latter shall take precedence.

Service Scope

This service can be used to:

  • Provide cloud deployment suggestions, design solutions to migrate servers, databases, and data, and conduct the migration based on the clarified applications and data to be migrated.
  • Provide infrastructure assurance during the migration.

This service cannot be used to:

  • Design or refactor your applications and databases.
  • Install or deploy your applications and databases.
  • Design infrastructure or set up and environments for the cloud platform.
  • Configure communication components required by migration.
  • Migrate applications, databases, or data that is beyond the project scope.
