Because of this SharePoint throttling effect, sometimes SharePoint sites will also become unavailable and causes poor performance to the users accessing the sites.To address these issues, Microsoft came up with separate API for migrations named O365 Migration API.

Now we will see how this can be achieved using available API commands.We can either use the CSOM version of Migration API and code in C# or use the PowerShell one.To simply explain the process, I will show you how we can migrate the Library Items from SharePoint 2013 to SharePoint Online using SharePoint Online PowerShell cmdlets.As of now, Office 365 Migration API does not support the migration of site/list schema.

Only content like files, folders, and items can be migrated along with its metadata, unique permissions, and versions.So, to migrate the content using this API, initially, a List/library with columns should be created at the target.Steps to use PowerShell cmdlets to migrate from SharePoint 2013 to SharePoint OnlineBefore you beginCreate an Azure Storage AccountInstall the SharePoint Online Management ShellStep 1: Setup your working directoryStep 2: Export your SharePoint List/Library content as a Content PackageStep 3: Generate the Manifest PackageStep 4: Submit packages to Azure Storage AccountStep 5: Start your migration jobStep 6: Monitor your migration jobStep 1: Setup your working directorySet up your working directory by creating two empty folders in SharePoint 2013 Server.Create a Temporary package folder.

So, make sure you run the code in the same PowerShell console otherwise you may end up with “Not Found” exceptions.Step 2: Export your SharePoint List/Library content as a Content PackageExport your SharePoint Library Content as a Content Package to your source-package folder in your working directory by using the Export-SPWeb cmdlet.Run SharePoint Online management Shell as admin and run the following commands substituting your values: Once the command executed successfully, a Content Package will be created at your working directory folder “source-package”.

This package consists of .dat files (pointing to your actual files) and few XML files (which holds files metadata and other information related to Source)Now let’s see how to generate a target Manifest Package based on this Content Package and target Site details.Step 3: Generate the Manifest PackageThe Manifest package is a package of XML files that define metadata, versioning information, permission information, user and groups, lookup relationships if any for your items and the settings for your import.Refer to Content migration schemas for more details about these manifest files.To simply generate the manifest package targeting your destination environment, run the following commands substituting your values:You can find this cmdlet detail here ConvertTo-SPOMigrationTargetedPackageOnce the command executed successfully, you can see your Manifest Package at your provided target-package working directory location.Step 4: Submit packages to Azure Storage AccountNow let’s submit the generated Content Package and Manifest Package to Azure Storage Account.These packages will be created as containers in Azure Storage Account.

You can get them from here.You can find this cmdlet detail here Set-SPOMigrationPackageAzureSourceOnce the command executed successfully, you can see Content Package, manifest, and queue containers with your packages in your Storage Account.Step 5: Start your migration jobNow let’s submit and start a migration job referenced to a previously uploaded package in Azure Storage Account.You can find this cmdlet detail here Submit-SPOMigrationJobStep 6: Monitor your migration jobAt this step, Azure will take care of migrating your content to the destination.

An organization’s successful cloud migration is heavily dependant on moving its on premises infrastructure to the cloud, and Azure Migrate greatly simplifies this process by allowing you to perform agentless discovery and readiness assessments of SQL server.

This is an easy solution to discover your entire SQL ecosystem, and have a unified experience for assessments of your IaaS & PaaS assets.Azure Migrate offers a complete repository of tools from Microsoft and partners for your migration needs.

The latest release unifies three tools for server, database and web-app assessment to create a guided start-to-finish flow.

You can now perform assessments for Azure SQL Managed Instances & Azure SQL Databases.

With this release you can discover SQL Server and databases (running in VMware) and conduct analyses of their configuration and performance, as well as check application dependencies before migration.Onboard Windows/Linux/SQL servers en masseWith Azure Migrate app for VMware you can conduce discovery, assessment, inventory and map application dependencies.Using Azure Migrate you can deploy your on premises appliances or upgrade existing appliances to begin discovery of your SQL Server-instances/databases.

The appliance also enables inventory of installed software and agentless dependency mapping.Once you provide credentials—for authentication of domain non-domain and SQL—Azure Migrate will map credentials of your servers and databases.For complete security your credentials ad encrypted and stored on your appliance in your datacenter itself and not shared with Microsoft.Discovery and app dependenciesAzure Migract can model SQL server instances and databases, as well as SQLs running on the same server.Discover up to six thousand databases with a single Azure Migrate appliance.Performance data is updated every 30 seconds, giving you accurate recommendationsSupports discovery of SQL instances/databases on SQL Server 2008 to SQL Server 2019, and all versions in between.
