Famsoft & IBM Partnership

Famsoft has been an IBM Business Partner for over 15 years. Our relationship with IBM goes back to 2003 when we successfully migrated Netflix from Sun infrastructure to IBM's robust, scalable and high-availability Power Systems with very little downtime. As a result, IBM recognized Famsoft as the "Regional Systems Integrator" and also a Certified Migration Partner.

As a company that has been assisting businesses to lower their complete infrastructure cost, Famsoft can assess your current environment, provide hardware and storage recommendations, resell the hardware, implement the hardware and complete the migration of databases and applications to IBM platform with minimum inconvenience to you, the customer. Famsoft offers a broad spectrum of IBM hardware and software solutions, including the complete line of IBM Power Systems and System x servers and storage solutions. Some of our IBM Migration clients include: Netflix, Cobalt Group and Viking Range.

Famsoft, IBM Certified Migration Partner

Our forte is in migrating customers from Oracle/Sun, HP, Cisco or Dell platforms to IBM AIX or Linux. Over the years, we have developed a proven low risk, high success methodology for executing cross-platform migrations based upon which we have successfully migrated several customers to IBM platform. Some high profile customers that we helped migrate to IBM platform include Netflix, Gymboree, Agilent, Cobalt Group, Viking Range to name a few.

Famsoft migration team is also trained and certified in using IBM’s migration utility, XenoBridge, which makes the migration to IBM extremely fast and reduces downtime drastically.
