	AWS Snow Family	IBM Cloud for Skytap Solutions
Likelihood to Recommend	Amazon AWS I can say it is appropriate in many ways, like the data transfer and the migration part. The generations in the AWS snow family are also helpful in choosing the right one based on the amount of data and budget aspects. Moreover, it was well suited for use in migrating bulk amounts of data. The surveillance part is a bit drawback for us, and now its ok, and we are good with it.

Pros	Amazon AWS Data migration. Transfer speed. Performance. Incentivized Verified User Read full review	IBM No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Amazon AWS Actually, we have used both the AWS Database Migration Service and AWS snow family's snowmobile, and we have a lot of experience with both migration parts. But the one we choose the best is the AWS snow family. Among these, it really works like something to migrate all the existing data to AWS servers in a very short span. Moreover, the accuracy of the data transfer is 100%. Incentivized Verified User Read full review	IBM No answers on this topic
