The migration from vendor platforms / operating systems to IBM has
never been easier that it is today. Recent improvments in migration
technology allow customers to undertake their own platform
migrations. Many customers have the necessary technical skills but
14-May 08:30-9:45 pSO02 fear their lack "migration experience" will create project risk. ATS
has a free migration workshop offering which allows IBM to add
"migration experience" to a customer migration project. This
presentation covers what is provided, how this mitigates customer
Migrating from Competition with a Free Migration Workshop Mark Keimig risk, and customer experiences with this offering.
ATS has pioneered the use of Oracle cross platform transportable
table spaces to reduce the cost and complexity of migrating ISV from
other vendor platforms / operating systems to IBM. The technical
characteristics and limitations of migrations using Oracle 10g XTTS
