Centera Migration Target (v1.2)

EMC Centera is a high-performance content addressed storage (CAS) solution.  Documentum Content Server includes a plug-in to utilize a Centera device as a second-tier content store, including the ability to migrate from a traditional file store.  However, there have been reported stability and performance issues with the out-of-the-box Documentum to Centera migration tools, including poor performance and, in some cases, no reliable way to migrate content.

TSG is enhancing OpenMigrate to support high-performance, multi-threaded migration to move content from a standard Documentum file store to an EMC Centera device.  Like the Documentum plug-in, It leverages the Centera SDK; but the OpenMigrate Centera Target adapter's key difference is that it is optimized solely for migration.  The OpenMigrate core engine already provides the necessary auditing and tracking of migration errors; and its multi-threaded approach is a perfect fit for Centera's architecture.
