Citrix don’t actually host VMs on clouds do they?

What is the source hosting platform? And what do you want the destination hosting platform to be? (Be as specific as possible)

Many factors involved in this.

 

Maybe use a backup tool like Veeam

Cold lift and shift using the backend NAS or SAN

Could be solutions outside of using anything from VMware.

When we did our DC migration we used Veeam to replicate VM's from one DC to the other. That way you perform a staged migration by replicating the bulk of the data upfront, and only sync the last changed blocks on the migration day. Worked flawlessly.

Ok, look citrix is ​​the virtual machine manager and it is mounted on IBM cloud, they want to migrate those virtual machines to another data center called KIO network, but instead of citrix they want to mount it on vmware.

VMware is a company, sounds like KIO Networks might be a VMware Cloud Provider Program (VCPP) partner - has anyone asked KIO Networks how the migration to their platform might be done? https://www.kionetworks.com/en/migration
