AppZero’s Zapp migration automates the extraction and movement of Windows production server applications from a source machine – physical or virtual – to any destination server in any cloud or datacenter.
What: Move existing Windows server applications with state, configuration, and data. There is no re-engineering of the application, and no AppZero software is needed on the source server.
Why: Automate moving complex applications to any cloud -- slash time, labor, errors, and costs.
How: Zapp resides entirely on the target server, and requires no AppZero software on the source production server. The target server can be located at any destination, including in the cloud to which an application is being migrated. The Zapp migration software runs the application-to-be-moved into an empty virtual container. As Zapp migration runs the application it remotely “pages” its components on-demand, encapsulating them for later copy-and-run deployment. This automation eliminates the bulk of manual labor typically involved in on-boarding. An optional dissolve function eliminates packaging upon deployment.
Results: Quickly move Windows production applications to any cloud, leaving them free to move in hybrid deployments – or use Zapp’s dissolve function to remove the appzero element allowing the application to natively install.
Differentiators: Compared to machine images, an AppZero application-only image is 100s of times faster to move and is available for Windows. AppZero is cloud-independent and hypervisor agnostic. Zapp is the only technology that automates Windows server application cloud migrations.
