IaaS / PaaS
Cloud & platforms
Data and portable artifacts across compatible environments.
USE CASES
Your next move. At every layer.
From business applications to cloud infrastructure: plan data portability for the environment that fits your needs.
CLOUD SWITCHING, ACROSS YOUR STACK
More than a software switch.
Switona is designed for data portability across cloud services, platforms and your own infrastructure. SaaS is one use case alongside databases, storage, infrastructure and platform services.
DBaaS
Databases
Prepare schemas, tables and relationships for a new destination.
STORAGE
Files & objects
File collections, object metadata and traceable transfers.
SaaS / APPS
Business applications
ERP, CRM and custom software, with their business history.
Cloud → CloudCloud → On-premisesOn-premises → CloudHybrid & edge
Technical scope is evaluated for each source and destination. Data transfer alone does not provision infrastructure or guarantee functional equivalence or uninterrupted workload migration.
YOUR NEXT CHAPTER
Cloud, database or application. Your next move starts here.
Switch cloud infrastructure
Inventory and assess exportable data and portable artifacts for an IaaS provider change. Plan target resources and operational handover separately.
Move between platforms
Assess data, configurations and dependencies when changing PaaS or managed services. Evaluate proprietary runtimes separately.
Migrate databases
Prepare tables, schemas and relationships across self-managed databases and Database as a Service.
Transfer storage
Move files, objects and metadata between compatible storage services. Validate scope and integrity using manifests and checksums.
Switch applications
ERP, CRM, SaaS and custom business applications: transform business data and preserve relationships.
Return to your own infrastructure
Prepare cloud data for import into your own data center or private cloud and assess target requirements.
Hybrid and edge environments
Transfer defined datasets between cloud, edge and local systems after evaluating connections and formats.
Consolidate systems
Bring data together after acquisitions or modernization across multiple applications, databases and storage locations.
Provider onboarding and exits
For cloud and software providers: create reusable transfer paths for customers joining or leaving a service.
THE EUROPEAN CONTEXT
Portability goes beyond SaaS.
Chapter VI of the EU Data Act addresses switching between data processing services, including cloud and edge services. Its framework also covers moves to a customer’s own ICT infrastructure. Specific requirements differ by service type.
Switona focuses on technical preparation and transfer: inventory exportable data, check formats, agree transformations and document results. Contractual obligations and legal assessments remain separate work.
The Data Act is one context for portability. Switona is also designed for everyday modernization, consolidation and provider changes.
Your next environment shouldn’t be decided by your old data.
