RackWare SWIFT For IBM Kubernetes Service and IBM OpenShift Cloud

RackWare SWIFT now officially supports IBM Kubernetes Service (IKS) and IBM OpenShift clouds. You can move your container workloads to IBM cloud and set up Disaster Recovery (DR) for the IBM cloud.

Key Features

Any-to-IBM Kubernetes Service or OpenShift Migration

Migrate your Kubernetes or OpenShift deployments from any public clouds or on-prem to IBM IKS or OpenShift cloud. Migrate or do DR for any container applications – stateless and stateful.

  • Cross-cloud

  • Cross-platform

  • Cross-version migrations

IBM VPC and Classic Storages supported

RackWare SWIFT fully supports IBM VPC and classic storages (file and block) now. Choose storage that meets your standards and cost criteria and let SWIFT do the rest for migration and Disaster Recovery (DR).

Break Storage Vendor Lock-In

Got any unconventional and harder to migrate storage like Flexvolumes?

SWIFT can help you migrate those to CSI storage types.

Just pick any IBM storage that meets your criteria with click of a button and have your storage converted without a downtime!

Your Data Security is our priority

Whether you are doing one-time migration of your Kubernetes or OpenShift cloud clusters to IBM cloud over WAN or doing intra IBM cloud DR, your data security is of paramount importance to us.

SWIFT employs VPN grade data encryption for all data it moves, so be it WAN or intra-cloud transfer, your application data always remains secure end-end.

IBM Satellite environments fully supported

Do you have containerized workloads running in IBM Satellite environment? Now you can migrate them to and from IBM container clouds (IKS or OpenShift) or set up a Disaster Recovery (DR) between such environments. RackWare SWIFT enables you to fully tap into the power of IBM Satellite cloud by distributing workloads as per your needs and still protecting everything all the time.
